+1 to Fly's multi-effects suggestion. I have an Digtech RP-50 that will drive headphones when they are plugged into the output jack. You might be able to find a used one for $20.

For $10 you might also be able to find a used pratice amp. Loads of these get shipped with those bundle guitar/amp kits and people usually upgrade the amp first. They don't sound very good IMO, but beats nothing. I picked up a new one at a local electronics store for $20.
Ummm what do you mean guitar amp sound?
But I guess you mean it'll sound fine without distortion or anything, just plain sound right?
