On the rear panel you can find, speaker outputs, DI out and a switchable FX loop, bringing the amp into the modern day. The added FX loop allows players to add pedals and effects after the preamp stage but before the power amp stage, as opposed to running gear solely through the front end of the amp. By using the switch on the rear panel, the FX loop can be completely removed from the signal path when switched off. Running the Bluesbreaker or the Guv’nor reissue pedals through the Studio JTM range will result in the production of smooth overdriven tones with a touch of compression.
If you look at the front panel, you will see the four inputs, levels for each voices, standard EQ control and a power switch which allows players to effortlessly swap between the full 20 watts and the lower 5 watts, for various playing situations. With this range, players can achieve those same huge guitar tones but at a more controllable level without having to compromise on tone, whether you’re playing at home, in the studio or at an intimate gig.
