I forgot to post here after I tested my Joyo BA-30. I got it 2 weeks ago, when I was a little sick, and I used it a couple of times. These last weeks have been so busy, so I haven’t played as much as I normally do. And I often play very late at night, and then I prefer to use a headphone amp so I don’t make noise.

I got the white one, because the black was out of stock. The white looks very nice, but the black has the advantage that it won’t get yellowish with time. I don’t know if the white will, but it is possible.

It is surprisingly small and light. It has a lot of options to adjust volume, gain, bass, middle, compression, etc. I didn’t notice too much of a difference when changing the settings, to be honest. I mostly keep everything at 12 o’clock position, except the volume and compression, which I turn it down, and have also tried it in the maximum the compression goes, and there is some difference. I suspect bigger amps are better at this.

I didn’t test to see how loud it can go (because of the neighbours, as I live in an apartment), but it is very good for indoor practice. I also tested it with headphones, and I find the sound is even a little better than my Katana Go.

The Joyo can be connected through Bluetooth to a cell phone or other device. I connected it to my phone, and I played some songs, and I could play along with them with my bass. The volume of the music coming through the Bluetooth is adjustable on the phone. The volume button on the amp is for the bass only. It worked very well.

It is a different experience playing with an amp or headphone amp. With my headphone amp, I didn’t notice certain things. With the Joyo, I notice much more clearly if I have problems with my muting, or if my plucking is not consistent. So yes, it was a good idea to get an amp, even a small and cheap one like this.

The Joyo is very good for a small amp and I like it! I can recommend it.

At least tomorrow is Sunday and you can rest. Let us know what you think about the Joyo, when you’re feeling better.

Ok, I picked up my Joyo.

First impressions:

  • heavier than I thought. So for travelling by plane this is NOT a solution. Here I will remain with my JBL Charge
  • Music via USB OTG sounds much worse than with the JBL Charge. It sounds very hollow and it lacks bass, though I don’t get why. Bass should not be an issue. But it’s ok for practicing in the park, I guess.
  • The bass guitar sounds fine, much better than my JBL Charge. It does not lack bass at all, like with playing music background tracks. In fact it’s better than expected, as it articulates well. It’s also louder than expected. Not good enough for a gig, of course … but good enough for jamming with an acoustic guitar player and a singer in the park. That’s a positive surprise.
  • It does not feel like a toy, which is great. It’s surely a gadget that can take a beating.

Need to test a little more, especially the audio interface features.
Don’t know if I’m gonna keep it … my JBL Charge is sufficient, but the tiny latency I hear with the JBL really gets on my nerves.
