review twin amp
Great! Thanks for this. Please do a review of the fender twin amp too. I would like to see the comparison since both have twin speakers.
ill start it off with a simple review
Roland Jazz Chorus JC120
Features: 8
2 channels. both clean, one with the footswitchable option of Chorus or Vibrato. the other a simple vol/treb/mid/low setting. both channels come with high and low impedence. both channels also have a bright knob which in my experience stays on the off position almost all the time for me. solid state. speed and depth knob controls which is a shared eq for the Chorus or Vibrato,. of course theres a distortion knob.... but......... well.... its not very good being polite.
note, it has a stereo input so can be used in a stereo set up and the amp will automatically become left and right.
Sound: 9(if you don't count the distortion)
Best Cleans in the world for me. used by artistes such as Wes Borland and James Hetfield. it may not have the tube ''Warmth'' we all so desperately seek, but has a chime that no other amp can achieve. EQ settings very sensitive to one another, but definitely an easy amp to tweak. plug and play. the chorus on this amp is truly legendary. frankly, ive very rarely put the amp on vibrato mode cause the chorus is simply stunning. more than any pedal will ever give you. that beautiful transparent jc120 chorus. the vibrato mode is also one to take notice of. it has a vintage flavour to it, but honestly dont know much about vibrato. i do think that the speakers play a very big part to achieving this tone. the cleans of the JC is simply the best to my ears. and i have religiously used them for recording my cleans. also an amp that takes pedals great!!,.. you dont know what your pedal sounds like till youve put it through a Jazz Chorus.
Durability: 9
mines from the 80's and made in japan. built to last another world war. after so many years. its knobs got a little scratchy. but hey.... its all good now
Overall: 9
i love this amp and i have been through many but this remains a mainstay for my cleans. no tube amp has surpassed the pure quality of the jazz chorus to my ears
Cheers!
