| | Thanks Jack.
When both Joey G AND you say similar things about the Bandit, people should take notice. It doesn't match a boutique amp but it seems to get about 90% of the way there. And for $150 - $200, you can't beat that. |

| | This is out of the OP price range, but someone else may be interested: Fender Jazzmaster Ultralight Head and 112 speaker cab. | eBay
I'd jump on it, if I didn't already have one. This is the only head + cab I've seen on eBay.

| | hands down if you are looking for a good ss for jazz look for a used roland JC 77 or jc 120, or a polytone combo. I know if I had the money to spend on a new ss these would be about the only amps I would look into. |

| | sterile ? I don't say that. It has a particular sound.
But a lot of jazzers use it.
I had it during one years, but I'm not fan about it, not very smoky.
I had the polytone, and I prefer it.
You can use, too, a preamp (modelisation or not) to route to power amp. |

The hiss is a big problem though. That's why most guitarists I know don't like them. |

| | The Roland Cubes are great amps; the stock speakers that they use in then are not however. Simply replacing the stocker with a nice Eminence or what have you will make a very noticable improvement. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
