Since 1972 Pignose has been the leader in portable battery-powered amplification. Many electric guitarists have used the original Pignose as a travel amp, a preamp, a studio amp, etc. Recently, many acoustic musicians have begun using them to amplify traditional acoustic instruments, from guitars and mandolins to ouds and sazes. In fact, I've used the Hog 30 in many belly dance situations where there is no AC power and the string instruments needed to be brought to the volume of several dumbek players whacking away on modern plastic-headed LOUD dumbeks! It even works well with a microphone to amplify the nai flute. The newer Hog 20 and 30 models have more power to provide a cleaner sound, adding a new dimension to the Pignose tone. Legendary Pignose This is the original portable guitar amp, with that funky sound we've loved for over 25 years. 5 watts, 5" speaker. $119.95
