Vox Da 5
I tried one of these out at the Ibanez importers store today. Awesome sound for such a little guy. Perfect for low volume recording and tons of other things. I tried it out with a Squier Standard Strat and loved it. It is very versatile. After hearing Robert's tones on Dolphin Street I'm GASing for a VOX. Check it out! It even has a switch for 5 watt operation, 2.5 watt and
.5 watt. Is that cool or what? http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/DA5
Plug In and Play Along with This Practice Amp!
The new DA5 Digital Amplifier from VOX delivers high quality guitar tone in a portable, compact and affordable package.

Plus, the versatile DA5 offers battery power, making it the best sounding, most versatile, truly portable guitar amp!

A wide array of great guitar tones
The quest for the ultimate tone can be endless. After countless hours of listening and playing - a top eleven list was selected for the DA5. Just check them out and you'll discover they offer up the wide array of great guitar tones - from pristine clean to outrageous overdrive and all points in-between.
Eleven high-quality effects
Nine standard effects indispensable for any guitarist are included. These include auto wah, compressor, phaser, chorus, flanger, tremolo, rotary, delay and reverb. With the addition of combination effects, you have a total of eleven to choose from. Each effect lets you adjust several parameters. There's also a Tap button that makes it easy to set the time or modulation speed.
Dual powered amplifier
The DA5 has a few tricks up its sleeve as well. The DA5 is powered by six C batteries or an AC adapter, enabling you to play anywhere. In addition, this little tonal monster has a power select switch, that lets you adjust the output power in three steps; 5W, 1.5W and 0.5W. Even when the master volume is turned up to the max to drive the power amp, you can lower the volume without losing any tone or feel.
Play and sing along!
Connect an external audio device such as CD, MP3 player, etc. to the DA5's Aux In, and plug a microphone to its Mic input. The DA5's three inputs work simultaneously so you can play guitar and sing along with recorded music. The DA5's convenient line/headphone jack allows home recording or late-night practicing. You can connect the line/headphone jack to your mixer, multi-track recorder or headphones. Since the character of the cabinet is also added to this signal, the sound will have a sense of "air" and depth even when you're listening to the DA5 through headphones or recording direct.

Sounds like it might sound better than the AD seriers for line out/recording. If anyone tries this with good results on this little Da 5, let us know. It might just be Da (5) Bomb! Haha
