This little amp is very good. My daughter use it for ukulele, and have played shows with it mic’ed up, worked well. You can use the headphone jack with a stereo y-cable to record with, but I would have wished for a dedicated xlr out on this amp, as it has amp and mic simulation that sounds pretty good. An xlr out will work better for front of house and recording purposes. So, deduction of one star for that, but dont hesitate to get this if you have a use case for it. It is a nice little amp that may work well for a lot of acoustic instruments.
