Amazing Portable Acoustic Amp

Here's that portable yet powerful acoustic amp you've been wanting. The Loudbox Mini Charge is a battery-powered amp that is small but puts out big, natural amplified acoustic tone. At 60 watts, the Loudbox Mini Charge features two channels with Fishman’s popular preamp and tone control designs. There is also a digital reverb and chorus for the instrument channel and reverb for the microphone channel. The Loudbox Mini Charge also features an Aux input and a balanced XLR DI output — great for playing along to or capturing your live performances. And now with Bluetooth wireless connectivity, you can bring in backing tracks or other accompaniment to your performances. Acoustic performers here at Sweetwater love the Fishman Loudbox Mini Charge.

An industry standout

Larry Fishman has developed a reputation for designing some of the best amplification devices in the field. Fishman amplifiers are known not only for their exceptional amplified tone but also for their durability and reliability — traits that have placed Fishman products in the hands of some of the most renowned players on the planet. In the Loudbox Mini Charge, he has designed an amp that is both powerful yet portable enough for effortless transport.

Unforgettable design and function

The Loudbox Mini Charge sports the usual elegant, vintage-inspired Fishman design and is done in the classic subdued brown-and-tan motif that makes Fishman amps instantly recognizable. The front-panel display makes the controls easy to find, read, and adjust. A simple, no-frills control set means you can play relaxed and confident. When it's time to make adjustments, the far-left Instrument channel has a Phase switch and Gain, Low, Mid, High, Reverb, and Chorus knobs that let you make those simple yet important changes to your tone and styling. Another set of Gain, Low, High, and Reverb knobs are on the Mic channel, giving you all the necessary controls to dial in a great vocal mix. Finally, a Master volume sets the amp’s overall level. Plug in, dial in, and play with the kind of rich, real acoustic tone that makes for a memorable live performance.

Fishman Loudbox Mini Charge Amp Features:

  • Light 21.2-pound amp for easy portability
  • 60 watts of rich amplified tone to fill a small room — perfect for coffeehouses and small bars
  • 30 years of Fishman design and engineering give you industry-standard sound
  • 4 hours of battery life at full volume, enough to power your live performance

Use it every day (almost)!

I play 3 to 4 times a week in various assisted living facilities, churches, and farmers markets in the area. I have two for larger events but for most events just one does a great job for acoustic guitar and vocals. What a time saver, never have to worry about plugging in when not convenient and amp stays pretty much charged because at least half the time I can plug in while playing so it works either way. The sound quality of this amp, imo, is unmatched by anything in its size or price range. I honestly could not imagine traveling around my local area without it!!!

Loudbox charge

My favorite amp, loud enough that I've used it as a PA in a few outdoor events, battery seems to last forever.
Sounds great with my FSR Strat HSS, but it really shines with my Tak acoustic electrics.
I use an in-line phantom power box for my Blue Encore 200 preamped dynamic mic.
Works especially well with my old voice live touch
As a substitute teacher this has sat all day in classrooms keeping the little heathens clam and focused.
Music has magical properties.
Music background: Guitar player for 56 years, band, choir, and orchestra growing up.

Very good sounding amp and unbeatable customer service

This amp has an awesome sound, period. I had a couple of problems with the circuit and with the battery, but both have been solved promptly.
I have to say that the customer service at Sweetwater is stellar, they really listen to you and really try to solve your problems. Unbeatable.
Music background: Bachelor in classical guitar, Master in Performance (jazz), touring musician.

Best Battery Powered Acoustic Amp Ever

TL/DR, this is the perfect solo busking amp, period. The rest: My main instrument is fiddle with an Ithaca Strings/Eric Aceto pickup, running through a Fishman Aura Spectrum DI. I busk often, play solo gigs at farmer's markets & other outdoor events. The Loudbox mini charge is the perfect amp for these venues. The eq is noiseless and useful at all settings. The reverb is spacious and musical. The whole thing sounds acoustic and, repeating myself, spacious. I get many, many compliments on my sound that I know I would not get on a lesser system. If you are considering a less hefty and less expensive busking amp (I'll not name names), I encourage you to reconsider. Just get a rugged handcart for your gear, charge the amp up for it's solid 4-hour capacity, and have a great gig! If my mini charge crashed for any reason, I would replace it immediately. It has already paid for itself many times over. Fishman has definitely earned my trust. Thanks to my associate Ben Porter for all the guidance!

On the go

The Fishman mini gives you all the great sound of the Loudbox but with the portability of a rechargeable, can't wait to start hitting the streets!!!!

Want to make your guitar sound its best? Take it from the lifelong performers at Sweetwater and check out Fishman. If you've bought an acoustic-electric guitar, there's a good chance it came with Fishman electronics, but it's easy enough to upgrade your favorite instrument too - just ask the pros in Sweetwater's Guitar Repair Shop. Do you perform? Are you a singer/songwriter? We'd love to turn you on to Fishman's Loudbox amps and amazing pedals. But Fishman isn't limited to acoustic electronics. Many of us have tricked out our electric guitars with Fishman Fluence pickups and TriplePlay wireless MIDI systems too.
