Joyo, for those unfamiliar, is a Chinese company (or perhaps "manufacturer", more accurately) that has gained some popularity in the past few years by "cloning" the circuitry of popular boutique guitar effects pedals, encasing them in a new form factor, and selling them at a price ($35 to $55) far more affordable than their boutique equivalents. The Joyo JA-03 series of Mini Headphone Amps appears to be a clone of the Vox Amplug series, which is quickly gaining popularity as a plug-in headphone amplifier with analog circuitry and surprisingly good tones. However, whereas the Vox Amplug costs either $40 or $50, these Joyo models can be had for as little as $10-$15, shipping included.

While I was a fan of some of the Joyo pedals, I was understandably skeptical that the Joyo could match the quality of the Vox Amplug. Also, since the two Amplugs I own (AC30 and Satriani) do not match up one-to-one with the "Super Lead", it is not a true comparison. However, I can say that the Joyo JA-03 is a very useful device, and given the affordability of these headphone amps, there really is no reason for any guitarist not to own at least one of the Vox or Joyo plug amps.

On the Joyo "Super Lead", you get three dials (Volume, Tone, Gain), but they are not numbered in anyway. This seems like a big deal, but actually it isn't, because the controls get bumped a lot anyway, and you can't see the settings on the bottom of the guitar as you play. Most of the time, you will be reaching down to the three dials and adjusting as you play. I opted for Super Lead because I thought it would be different than the two Vox plugs I already had, and it is. It probably has the highest gain of the three, but the sound quality is also not quite up to par with the Vox plugs.

I believe this is a good value for the money.
Basically, this is a Vox rip-off for way less money. It works. It isn't awesome, but it works.
I actually purchased this for practicing a bass with headphones. This does work for this purpose, sort-of.
This is intended for an electric guitar with distortion and it probably works great for that. There's no shortage of distortion gain.
However, for a bass, unless you're playing death metal, you don't want distortion.
Here's how I was able to get a usable tone (not great, but usable).
Bass pickup volume should be about 1/2 way.
Gain should be all the way off.
Tone - middle-ish. I couldn't get a great tone no matter what.
Volume - all the way up.
Basically, you have to have as little input gain and as much output amplification as possible in order to get a somewhat clean sound. Even with this config, there is still a little bit of distortion but not too bad. It sounds like an old tube bass amp with some input gain.
I wish Joyo would make a bass-specific model of this like Vox does but this unit will work if you just need to hear yourself for practice.
I haven't tested the aux in and I can't attest to longevity although it seems pretty flimsy.
If you're cheap like me, get this. If you want a better quality sound, get a Vox.

I was really surprised when I first used this Mini Amp because I did not know what to expect. The amp has a very good sound, could go higher on volume though. Nonetheless it has nice sound quality, perfect for practicing on the go, and the auxiliar input is a Great Plus! Having tried other mini amps before, such as the Vox Night Train and the Twin Reverb, I would recommend this to anyone looking for a nice on the go practice amp.

This mini amp is awesome, once I plugged in the correct hole. I am fully pumped on this device. very loud with headphones on , like a concert but nobody else can hear it. Buying another for sure on my bass.

For what it is, it's a great value and a good product. I use it to practice on an electric guitar and play it through headphones if I don't want to bother others or through a mini blue tooth speaker that has a mini plug capacity. I am an acoustic player and bought a Line 6 Variax modeling guitar which can be made to sound like 16 distinctly different acoustic guitars. I bought it to carry in my RV because it's compact and easy to store. This allows me to play or practice quietly indoors or out. Also has aux input so I can play along.

I bought this for my grandson to practice with and not blow out my eardrums while he is playing. It gives him the real sound of his electric guitar but he doesn't have to carry an amp, power cords and headphones, etc.

The one I got says "Metal" not "Super Lead" like the one pictured. I find this to be adequate but not great with my bass. The "Metal" filter is not to my preference but is good enough for practice. The sound is muffled and turning the knobs does little to help but for the volume. if you want to practice without disturbing folks look no further, but not performance quality. I love the size and fits right into smaller pocket of gig bag for my bass.
