I need something very small that give me the possibility to play in my headphones without cables, huge amps etc, and I am wondering if one of these could be a good cheap solution.

Thanks for the help!

Don't know about those, but can recommend the Tascam Bass Trainer - especially the MP3 version - does all you want and loads more :-

£100 more than the options above, though ....

I use a C-Tech Pocket-Rockit headphone amp which is fantastic for the pittance i paid for it - very simple layout and a line-in for cd/mp3 - good sounds and a great jamming tool....

Yep +1 for the Rockit - fantastic little piece of kit, linked to my MP3 player I can wander round the house playing or use it backstage for last minute practice. It is excellent.
