Do I need an amplifier to play it? Can I use headphones with it? Do I need any extra cords? Thanks

If you want it to be loud, then yes, you'll need an amp. It doesn't come with an amp cord. If you want to use headphones with it, you'll need something like this Vox headphone amp:Vox amPlug Metal Guitar Headphone AmpAlso, a word of advice: Make sure that the nuts that secure the knobs to the body are tight, otherwise you might find that the pots rotate out of position and the contacts touch the wall of the hole that they're mounted in. This will cause your guitar to stop making cool noises (or noises of any kind, for that matter). If you want it to be loud, then yes, you'll need an amp. It doesn't come with an amp cord.

Yes, you need an amplifier. You will also need a cord to plug the guitar into the amp, the guitar does not come with that. Most amps don't have headphone jacks but some small practice amps come with headphone jacks built in. The VOX Pathfinder is cheap and has a headphone jack. NOTE: you don't need an amplifier or cord to play RockSmith, RockSmith comes with a cord and plays through the TV.

You have to hook it up to a amplifier or a receiver, or plug in your head phones but it has no speakers or anything

It has RCA inputs which can be used with a headphone =&gt; RCA adapter. The amplifier is powered by an external adapter, as you would not use the DAC and only the amplifier with an iPod, the other answer is wrong.

it is load enough with headphones, it runs at a line level so you are good - does need a 3.5>1/4 in adapter though

You need a cabinet, because the amp has to have an ohm load on it. If you want to just use headphones, you need a headphone amp.

To play music you need to purchase Audio Supported adapter!(it looks the same as this one but has a Audio jack on the side)

Thanks for your question. THis amazing sounding player requires an amplifier.

There are no inputs on top of the device. You will need speakers or headphones connected, the device has no speakers of its own.

you will need headphones of some kind. it does come with some buds, but they arent very comfortable or of good sound quality

Yes, just use headphones and plug your guitar into it and play. You dont need an amp. Or you can plug the output into an input or aux on your stereo if you keep the volume low. Fun looper and select few drum beats to play along with. Really cool pedal. THe key with all pedals is to get a really good guitar cable, it will help eliminate noise for the effects and channel input & pickups. Have a blast!

Well, it doesn't have its own speaker so it can't work by itself. But if you have a portable computer speaker that is self-powered, you should be able to connect that to the amPlug and hear what you're playing. But since there's no speaker, you either need a speaker or a pair of headphones for it to work :)

There is no headphone jack that comes with the unit. You can buy a rca to 3.5 mm adapter from Amazon and plug it in to the output rca jacks. That is how I got mine to work. But even with low impedance headphones the volume is not all that loud. You would be better off with a headphone amp.2 x RCA Male, 1 x 3.5mm Stereo Female, Y-Cable 6-Inch

I got one with mine. But I discovered after the fact if you bought the "Direct Connect Cord" you didn't have to. So with that being said, I can't give an opinion on the quality without the amplifier and using the direct connect cord.

It has a pre-amp out with a standard PL jack. If your headphones have an adapter you can probably plug it in there.

You need an amplifier first. Then whatever adapters to connect your headphone cable to the amplifier. What you need will depend on the amplifier you get.

According to the manual, you should be able to hook up any "external audio sources". However you will need a 3.5 mm audio cable, which is not included.
