I watched video reviews about this specific model as well as other Hotone Nano amps. I went with this one based on price and the fact that it was intended to "sound like" a Soldano. I knew it was small, heard many people say it's really small, and still when I opened the box I thought "wow, that is really small." I don't know how close it sounds to a Soldano, but it sounds pretty good for the price range. As others noted, there is pretty much no clean sound with this. I had the gain all the way off and it was still a little distorted/breaking up with a moderate output humbucker. But the distortion is not the typical "white noise fuzz through a towel" sound you get from many budget modeling amps, it sounds a lot better; the harmonics are distinct, and the break-up is response to how you play. The EQ controls seem to all do what they're supposed to; they're smooth and the change in tone correlates well with rotation of the knobs. It's going to get a lot of use. Review: Tiny with plenty of gain - Really cool sound. Nice buttery distortion. Wish that it had a second channel for clean. It's loud but, not loud enough to play with a drummer. ## Features - Pure Analog Circuit Design, Sound inspired by legendary Soldano SLO 100, US Style High Gain Distortion Tone Character - 5W Pure Solid State Output Power Sounds and Responses like Vacuum Tubes Amp with Organic and Harmonic Tone - AUX IN and Phones jack with Cab Simulator for directly plugging into Audio Interface or PA System - FX Loop for Hooking up other Effects; 4-16 Ohms Compatible Speaker Output - 18V Power Supply (included) providing Massive Headroom ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07982FHG9 | | Amplifier Type | Solid State | | Brand | HOTONE | | Compatible Devices | Guitar | | Connector Type | 3.5mm Jack | | Customer Reviews | 3.8 out of 5 stars 31 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00888506020094 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 2.95"D x 5.04"W x 2.34"H | | Item Weight | 1.7 pounds | | Manufacturer | Hotone Audio | | Mfr Part Number | NLA-9 | | Model Name | Captain Sunset | | Model Number | Captain Sunset | | Number of Bands | 3 | | Output Channel Quantity | 1 | | Output Wattage | 150 watts | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Product Dimensions | 2.95"D x 5.04"W x 2.34"H | | Speaker Size | 10 centimeters | | UPC | 888506020094 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** HOTONE - **Compatible Devices:** Guitar - **Item Weight:** 1.7 pounds - **Output Wattage:** 150 watts - **Product Dimensions:** 2.95"D x 5.04"W x 2.34"H ## Images ![Hotone Captain Sunset High Gain Guitar Amp Head 5 Watts Class AB Amplifier with CAB SIM Phones/Line Output - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61IEftf7NQL.jpg) ![Hotone Captain Sunset High Gain Guitar Amp Head 5 Watts Class AB Amplifier with CAB SIM Phones/Line Output - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61GOIo8psuL.jpg) ![Hotone Captain Sunset High Gain Guitar Amp Head 5 Watts Class AB Amplifier with CAB SIM Phones/Line Output - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/617j8RbJRZL.jpg) ![Hotone Captain Sunset High Gain Guitar Amp Head 5 Watts Class AB Amplifier with CAB SIM Phones/Line Output - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61kI9MzMegL.jpg) ![Hotone Captain Sunset High Gain Guitar Amp Head 5 Watts Class AB Amplifier with CAB SIM Phones/Line Output - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61wym5LGORL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Achieves intended goal *by S***T on September 10, 2020* Before I bought this, I did research.

It's loud but, not loud enough to play with a drummer. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great practice/recording amp. *by W***Y on September 9, 2019* Great little recording amp/practice amp. Currently using for practice w/o a cabinet paired, using headphones and this amp offers features that rival other combos in this range. Sounds good but do note that there is no dedicated “clean” channel, I think they offer another product for that. Otherwise, it offers some great tone. ## Frequently Bought Together - Hotone Hotone Captain Sunset Guitar Amp Inspired by Soldano SLO 100 - SONICAKE Sonic Aby Box Line Selector Ab Switch Aby Pedal Mini Guitar Effect Pedal True Bypass - SONICAKE 6 Inch Patch Cable for Guitar Effect Pedal Cables Black (6 Pack) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.is/products/60961079-hotone-captain-sunset-high-gain-guitar-amp-head-5-watts](https://www.desertcart.is/products/60961079-hotone-captain-sunset-high-gain-guitar-amp-head-5-watts) --- *Product available on Desertcart Iceland* *Store origin: IS* *Last updated: 2026-08-16*
