Small enough to stash in a backpack and powered by an internal rechargeable battery, the Ashdown Micro Killer packs a 3W amp and custom 3" speaker into a grab-and-go combo weighing just 2.2 lb. Part of Ashdown's Killer Tone series, the Micro Killer pairs its ultra-portable format with Gain, Tone and Volume controls for moving from cleaner sounds to warm crunch and more driven textures. Bluetooth audio and a line input let players practice along with music and backing tracks, while a headphone output supports quiet practice and an 8-ohm speaker output adds the option of connecting a compatible external cabinet. USB-C charging replenishes the internal battery, with a standard 9V DC center-negative input providing another way to power the amp. Compact and flexible, the Micro Killer puts a practical guitar practice rig within easy reach wherever players want to plug in.
Custom 3" Speaker With Simple, Flexible Tone Shaping
The Micro Killer delivers 3W of output through a custom 3" Ashdown speaker in an enclosure compact enough for a desk, practice space or travel rig. A straightforward three-knob control set keeps tone shaping simple: Gain adjusts the amount of drive, Tone moves the overall character from warmer to brighter, and Volume sets the final output level. From cleaner practice tones to added grit for riffs and leads, the simple layout provides useful tonal range without requiring channels, menus or presets.
Bluetooth Audio and Flexible Connectivity for Practice and Jamming
The Micro Killer makes it easy to incorporate backing tracks, songs and other audio into practice sessions. Bluetooth audio supports wireless streaming from a compatible phone, tablet or other device, while the line input provides a wired alternative. A dedicated headphone output supports quiet practice, and a standard 1/4" instrument input provides the primary guitar connection. For a different speaker setup, a 1/4" 8-ohm output supports connection to a compatible external cabinet.
Rechargeable Battery and USB-C Charging for Portable Practice
An internal rechargeable battery frees the Micro Killer from the wall outlet, making its compact 5.9" x 3.9" x 5.9" enclosure easy to take from room to room or pack for travel, rehearsals and impromptu jams. USB-C charging provides a convenient way to replenish the battery, while a separate 9V DC center-negative input supports conventional external power when an outlet is available. At just 2.2 lb., the Ashdown Micro Killer combines highly portable dimensions with straightforward tone controls, audio playback options and useful practice connectivity.
