What does an amp look like the age of the iPod? The Vox DA5 digital guitar amp ($130 street) weighs under 8 pounds, runs on C batteries, and includes multiple amp models (crunch, clean, overdrive) and 11 digital effects, with inputs for your guitar, mic, and an aux in and a speaker and headphone/line jack. No big sound here — the speaker is 6.5″ — but it’s a perfect practice amp. Or you could play it onstage with the world’s tiniest guitar. -P. Kirn
