Gigged with the original for almost 15 years. Played 6 & 12 string guitar, 4 different electric guitars, banjo, electric & acoustic mandolin & multiple keyboards thru it. Whether miced or direct, it's performance was impeccable & it took pedals with complete aplomb. Best amp I ever owned.

So, I just looked up the current JC-120 prices. The normal one is $1599 here in Canada, and this anniversary model - which is the exact same except for a cherry wood finish on the cabinet - is $2799… Holy hell Roland who are you buying your cherry wood stain from…

Playing clichés like that is the epitome of a war crime. People who play Metallica just because it’s a JC120, the Beatles because it’s a Rickenbacker or a Vox, AC/DC because it’s an SG, U2 because it’s Memory Man Delay. Be original.

Would anyone recommend using a JC-120 for a Nirvana cover gig? - To clarify: it's a one-off show with only cover acts; the organisation has a strict selection of gear for all bands to use, and the other guitarist has already hogged the twin reverb. So my choice is either a JC-120, a Hotrod Deluxe, an AC30 or a JTM45 on a 4x12 Marshall cab..

So, the 50th Anniversary JC120 is different from a JC120 produced last by the limited edition number and the cherry wood? Other than that, the 50th Anniversary Edition sounds like a 2022 model? Is it worth the extra or will it hold its price against a non anniversary JC120 of the same age?

What pedal could you use to get a Metallic distortion? They should make a Hetfeild pedal 😊 is there any one pedal to get that cool Metallica sound or do you have to have EMG pickups ect ect ???
@PearLock Жыл бұрын
Tone, and distorted tone, pretty much comes down to just a few things: EQ, compression, and saturation. And then a few extra things that might help you sound closer (but aren't related to tone) like a noise-gate, etc. So rejoice! You can get the Metallica tone with a lot of different distortion pedals! I like the ProCo Rat 2. And then humbuckers would make the process a lot easier, but they don't HAVE to be EMGs. Any difference between EMGs and other humbuckers can be remedied with EQ, compression, and however much saturation (distortion) you need.
