As there were a few comments about price comparisons for the different interfaces I thought I’d post something with the options available.
AmpKit LiNK (made by Peavy Electronics)
As far as I can see by looking at a few US and UK retailers there’s no difference whatsoever for pricing of the AmpKit LiNK
Amazon (.COM) – $29.99
Amazon (.co.uk) – £29.99
Music123 – $29.99
Musician’s Friend – $29.99
Dolphin Music – £29.99
iRig (IK Multimedia)
A little bit of difference with the iRig. No listing for it on Amazon UK sadly, but Dolphin have it for a reasonable price.
Amazon(.COM)
– $39.99
Musician’s Friend – $39.99
zZounds – $39.95
Music123 – $39.99
Dolphin Music – £23.84
I don’t plan to do a price comparison for the PRS Guitarbud (although it is available at Amazon) or the Griffin Guitar Connect, but if you want me to I can.
On the app side, both AmpliTube and AmpKit+ cost $19.99 (£11.99). There is a good comparison of the two in terms of what’s included at ars technica, but one thing they don’t mention is that AmpKit+ has SoundCloud export too, which is great to know. Expect more apps with SoundCloud soon.
And lastly, if you haven’t seen it already, check out the comparison video here.
