combo amp

Self-contained guitar amplifier

A combo amp is a guitar or bass amplifier that combines the amplifier electronics and speaker cabinet in a single portable unit.

The alternative is a separate head and cabinet setup.

Combo amps range from small practice amps to powerful stage equipment: I brought my combo amp to the gig instead of my full stack.
