That is a great answer. 10 points to you. Thank you very much.

An AC30 does not sound at all as any Roland JC amp

@@agusg.t.8950he meant the words sound similar (ac and jc) not that the amps sound alike 😊

yes, it is not a blues amp.

@@user-nu7xx7pc1d Doesn’t matter. Many youtube players find a way, haha.

Lol So true

As I’m looking for clean amps for blues

@@georgewashington2253 no offense intended - there must be videos that play the blues.

Thanks Dan, much appreciated!

Very true! I was also amazed to learn that Hetfield and Hammett (Metallica) used to use the JC120 for their clean tone and sometimes dirty tone (pedals through it) on stage and in the recording studio.

This Roland or the Boss Katana though Tim? That sounds pretty good for cleans too from the demos I've heard. I know that this has the stereo feature but I'm not sure about those 6 inch speakers. I am slightly tempted to get 1 or the other because I have my Laney valve amp but it'd be nice to get something different too for when the mood takes me.

@@JammyGit what did you do in the end?

I agree, I hate when these guys talk more than they play.

Thanks, I really appreciate that!

This amp would sound absolutely KILLER with a Friedman BE-OD pedal !! You could literally go from playing at Church Sunday morning to playing in a UFO cover band on Friday night at the local bar LOL If only I was 20% as good as Michael Schenker... Ha! 🎸

I accidentally erased my comment if I never wanted a JC till now. Was adding a great review thank you .

BANG! Stimulus check - 2020

Thank you!

Thank you very much!

Yea, seriously. He did a better job than the "Official" Roland commercial.

Hey, thanks for that! I appreciate it.

Thank you and I'm glad to see that someone recognized that tune.

Thanks, much appreciated!

Initially It will be an at home practice amp. But, do you feel or wish that you would have gotten the 40 watt instead ?

@@crazywisdom2 I think for my use, this amp has been fantastic. I wrote this comment a year ago and this JC22 is still my go to amp. The JC22 is a 30 watt amp, despite the 22 in the name. It's also light and easy to move around (I have mine on a small dolly). I think for larger venues the 40 would be a good idea.

Thank you!

Thanks!

You didn’t watch the video properly ...he was asking why it wasn’t called the Jc-30? Since it is a 30w model and all the previous Jc models have got their name from the wattage.

how loud does the JC-22 get? I play in an organ trio that plays jazz music with a drummer and organ player playing a B3 through a Leslie. I need a small amp I can carry around. I need the amp to be pretty loud for gigs in bars and restaurants. you think JC 22s can handle that or no? I know he said it was "massively loud" but I would like a second opinion from some one like you. Thanks for your time.

Are you still satisfied? Tried other amps?

@@BladeDoomer86 still have it. Also have a few others, an older Fender HRD and a Quilter 101 Mini head with a 1x12 cab. I tend to play the quilter more often but the JC22 still gets a run from time to time

I bought this amp at the beginning of 2021, and I use it even more than my Fender 65 Princeton Reverb. It is a great amp for home use. I play it with great satisfaction, and I don’t bother my wife. Great amp.

Thank you John. I love the Les Paul, just don't play it as often for long periods due to its weight (Traditional model).

So true. I do love the Fender clean sound, but that sound is so different from the JC clean sound. Both are great!

Agreed!

Does JC amps has more hiss than Deluxe? Do you think JC22 with Strymon Flint tremolo and reverb could nail that fender tone?

MegaCrasherMusic in bedroom setting with low volume the noise is noticeable and cannot be used for clean recording. I don't gig a lot so I started to think to replace it if that setup could work decently.

What is the song he is playing in the beginning?

@@N.Narwhal echo beach Martha and muffins

Have you noticed a difference in volume with lines out from 40 to 22 please ?

@@DaFake Just a slight difference in volume, but I never needed to crank the JC-40 past 2 when recording with the line-out. The JC-22 needs to be cranked a little bit higher to reach the same volume, but never past 5 (50% volume). Hope it helps! 🙏

@@VevozoneTV cool! Tha ks for your answer!

Good guess. I'm still not sure of the exact answer.

jAMMAN798 could be that it is too similar to AC30 😎

Thank you!

Thanks! It is a really, really great amp. It is designed to bring out the best in pedals, so modulation (in front or in the effects loop) and distortion/overdrive (in front) all sound great.

Thank you. What about the headphones quality? How is that with pedals?

Hi Ronnie. As you saw in this video I ran my guitar into a pedal (the Boss Tera Echo) and then into the front of the amp. You can do the same with your amp. The reason amps have a send/return on them for effects is because when you run a modulation pedal (chorus, reverb, delay, flanger, phaser, etc) in the front of the amp, it then runs along with your guitar signal through the pre-amp. What happens then is that the one signal is amplified and depending on the pedal, it can become difficult to get the guitar and pedal sound in a pleasing way, especially at louder volume. The effects loop on an amp (send/return) just adds your modulation signal to the guitar, but at a later stage so it is not effected as much with the coloring of the pre-amp and just receives the post amp along with the EQ'd guitar signal. If you play clean, then the differences in running a pedal in the front or in the effects loop are a little less noticeable. If you have an amp with tube distortion or built in distortion, it then sounds really bad if you run modulated effects in the front of the amp.... these need to go through the effects loop. The general rule is if you have an effects loop on your amp, you would always use it for Delay, Reverb, Flanger, Chorus and Phaser pedals. Pedals such as Overdrive, Distortion, Fuzz should never be put through an effects loop, but rather run in the front of the amp. Please also note that lots of musicians just place their amp on a 100% clean channel and then run every effect through the front of the amp, but they place their effects on their pedal board in a way that works like an amp with an effects loop. In other words, the pedal board would start with a Compressor, then a Distortion or Overdrive, then a Chorus or Flanger, then a Delay and then into the amp. For most amps this works nicely.

I heard that the effects loop goes thru the chorus….no way to stop that. is this correct?

@@soundbelch1600 No, i have decided to buy a Yamaha thr 10 II because my main use is bedroom, and i wanted Bluetooth connectivity, IT also hast some very nice Cleantones. But i still desire a jc !

Thanks! It is a very nice "small" amp to have if you enjoy playing clean.

The Jazzmaster is on loan with a band. When it comes back I'll toss it in a vid.

Thanks! It is not loud enough to play with a drummer in a way that every note would be spectacular, unless the drummer is playing very light as in a nice Burbon Club Jazz Bar where you can hear yourself talk over the music.
