  • Iconic amp
Size: 40 Watt
This is an iconic amp. The 40 watt version may be little big for a bedroom setup but perfect for recording studio or practice space. It’s even gigable. You can’t go wrong with this one. The cleans are so perfect and the chorus and reverb sound great. This is a stereo amp with 2 speakers and you can use stereo effects in the effect loop. The distortion is a little finicky and it’s best to turn the treble down a bit if you’re going to turn the distortion up. It’s a little pricy but honestly I think it’s worth it. One of my favorite amps. It’s not just for Jazz, you can get great tone out of it for Rock, blues, and other genres as well. In fact Metallica used one for some of their recordings including the clean parts on the song One. I think it’s a really fun amp that takes pedals well and the chorus and reverb built in sounds great. I pair this with a Fender Vibro Champ to get my perfect tone. ... show more

  • A very complete amp...
Size: 40 Watt
As a guitarist today - you certainly have choice. A lot of good ones in how you want to get your sound. You can choose to have an amp do the exceptional tone and dirty work, you can use standalone preamps with a cabinet emulator and tie into a PA system, or you can get a very clean amp and use pedals. I've tried all and have essentially gravitated toward a good clean amp with good pedals. Seems the most flexible. I can more easily get what I want when I want it. Change it as needed. If this is you - hard to do better than this amp! Starting with the JC Clean this amp is revered for. It is a unique pristine clean. Tremendous front end to a note. Many speak of tubes advantages over solid state. Well - there are some advantages to solid state and this amp accents it and delivers it in abundance. Absolutely no sag and the cleanest of punch into a note. Amazing headroom. If you want to hear all the nuances of your guitar and supporting pedals - this is about the best I've ever had the pleasure to plug into. In fact - it exposed some very subtle artifacting on some of my drive pedals I had not noticed before. When you want clean - this amp does it sounding great. Again not tube great, but in its own great solid state way. This amp tends to be kind of polarizing in that way - and you either like it or not. It can put a real smile on your face. You also get this amp for the unique chorus. Revered draw of this amp and is all that. Very adjustable chorus and vibrato. Reverb is likewise quality and adjustable. The bright switch adds a nice boost of treble and also upper mids to give even more clarity without increasing icepickiness. Good adjustment with the BMT EQ knobs. The distortion is more like a simple gain, but has a touch of grit and while it won't replace your favorite distortion pedal it can do a tasteful accent and has good range. I do like to nudge it on to get that hair of grit. It's kinda of difficult to quantify, but all the features and aspects of this amp seem excellently done and seem to really fit together in a way that gives a great and unique - distinct - sound. The quality 2x10 speakers also insure that sound quality is well heard in stereo. Now - getting into the 2nd half of what makes this amp great. Supporting platform features goes beyond what is usually offered at this price point. It has a stereo pathway from the input all the way to the speaker output. It is essentially 2 preamps sharing the same bright, volume, BMT and distortion settings. Each of these preamp paths can feed into its own path of one of the 2 power amps. The 2 power amps share the chorus/vibrato settings. The effects loop is feature rich. It allows a stereo return - each into its separate power amp, or monaural into both. The effects loop can be series or parallel. Series directs the wet return to the power amps. Parallel allows the stereo dry signals across and blended with the wet signal return. The only shortcoming is that the effects loop is not quite a full stereo path. The send is a blend of the preamp channels and you can't just get a return to a single power channel. Still - it's a lot to work with and this ended up being a large reason I got this amp after more closely looking at it. Summary: If you're looking for a JC Clean - this has it with quality. Likewise coupled with the chorus. Otherwise I suggest you try before you buy. It is a bit of a one trick pony with its sound. Be a bit wary if also trying to use it as bedroom amp. It gets loud fast. I had use a volume pedal at the end of my amp lead in pedals to allow a large and usable signal to be pared down enough to get bedroom levels. Very good speaker presentation, but stereo line outs too. It does go a nice extra long way with being that pedal platform with the stereo pathways options at the input and in the effects loop. Lastly his thing is built with quality throughout and can be put to work above just toying around. Tend to think it a good and lasting investment. A great clean never goes out of style... Update 4/18/2019: Still have this amp. This amp has really made me happy to have. It simply delivers a special sound, set of resources that makes it so useful - and fun. I think I can speak for many who have more than a couple of differing amps- That you can get tired of a particular aspect of an amp, and find yourself wanting to plug into something else. When wanting perhaps to go for a clean change after a period of whatever kind of dirt you got into for a bit - this amp is - to me - like the most rewarding way to do that clean nirvana. As mentioned before - this amp is a bit of a 1 trick pony. And yes - if like me - you can get tired of the 1 trick. But I guarantee you'll never get tired of coming back to the special 1 trick this guy does! ... show more

  • Great clean tone, enhance with effects pedals
Size: 30 Watt
This is a wonderful and "clean" sounding amp that I am using with my PRS SE CE Satin "budget" electric. Am running the guitar through Cryptic Wampler distortion (sometimes), Boss Equalizer GE-7 EQ, and Boss DD-8 digital delay pedals and have just the sound I am looking for. The Amp itself has built in reverb and chorus. Sort of an ethereal, alt rock (remember that?) type of sound, or, just clean sometimes. Plenty loud enough for home use but it would work well at a practice session or even a live gig. Also, I no longer think I need full blown, expensive amp modeling/effects boxes because this amp, along with a few pedals, provides the best sound I can get. ... show more

  • Beautiful Amp
Size: 40 Watt
I rarely write reviews on amazon, but this amp is outstanding. I owned a roland jc 90 and ended up selling it at one point to buy a different guitar, and I had always regretted it. This amp gives same beautiful tone along with more options such as the tremelo and bright switch. I'd argue the built in distortion isn't terrible, but still not the best (for people not familiar, the built in distortion on roland JC's are typically pretty bad). Get yourself an overdrive or distortion pedal. Id recommend a proco rat of some sorts or a walrus fundamental overdrive. Only problem is the amp is incredibly loud and the potentiometer that controls the volume seems to be very sensitive at low volumes (basically gets very loud quickly). ... show more
