{"product_id":"blackstar-jjn50","title":"Blackstar Jared James Nichols JJN 50 Guitar Amplifier Head","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Blackstar JJN 50 is a 50-watt tube head designed with Jared James Nichols, his second signature amp with Blackstar. Channel I is voiced after mid-1960s American cleans, bright with a solid low end, and makes a steady platform for pedals. Channel II follows an early-1960s British Class A preamp for clean to crunch tones, and its footswitchable BLUES POWER setting adds a 10 dB clean boost at the input to push it into overdrive. Two ECC83 preamp tubes and two EL34 power tubes drive it, and the head weighs 7.7 kg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuilt on the St. James Platform\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe JJN 50 starts from the St. James 50 EL34 and extends the top end for a brighter tone that cuts through a mix. Its lightweight switched-mode power transformer runs on any mains supply from 100 to 240 V. A three-way switch selects full 50 W, a Sag mode that softens the attack with power supply compression, or 2 W for practice and recording. Each channel has its own EQ circuit behind the shared Bass, Middle and Treble knobs, and the Middle control works as an active cut and boost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSilent Recording\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA built-in reactive load lets the head run with no speaker connected. With the Standby switch at 0, the speaker outputs disconnect while the full signal, power tubes included, still reaches CabRig, Blackstar's IR-based speaker simulator. CabRig feeds the balanced XLR D.I. output, the stereo headphone and line output and the USB audio output, and it comes loaded with three presets made with Jared: JJN Classic Muscle, JJN Modern Grit and JJN Nashville Basement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eJared James Nichols signature 50 W tube head\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo footswitchable channels with BLUES POWER boost on Channel II\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2 x ECC83 preamp tubes, 2 x EL34 power tubes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e50 W, Sag and 2 W power settings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBass, Middle and Treble with separate EQ circuits for each channel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReverb and Master volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeries effects loop with +4 dBu and -10 dBV level switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt-in reactive load for silent recording\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCabRig IR-based speaker simulation with three Jared James Nichols presets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBalanced XLR D.I., stereo headphone and line output, and USB audio\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUniversal mains input, 100 to 240 V\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFS-19 two-way footswitch included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBritish Racing Green covering with illuminated front logo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two-channel tube guitar amplifier head\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 W RMS, with Sag and 2 W settings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTubes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 x ECC83, 2 x EL34\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eControls:\u003c\/strong\u003e Volume I, Gain II, Volume II, Bass, Middle, Treble, Reverb, Master\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpeaker outputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e One 1 x 16 ohm output, two outputs for one 8 ohm or two 16 ohm cabinets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOther outputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Balanced XLR D.I., 1\/4\" stereo headphone and line out, USB audio (type B)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEffects loop:\u003c\/strong\u003e Series, switchable +4 dBu or -10 dBV\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMains:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 to 240 V AC, 50\/60 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFootswitch:\u003c\/strong\u003e FS-19 two-way, included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 495 x 241 x 228 mm (W x H x D)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.7 kg (17.0 lbs)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Blackstar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67380237009145,"sku":"JJN50","price":1999.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0746\/5766\/1177\/files\/blackstar-jjn50-1.jpg?v=1792174835","url":"https:\/\/blackoutaudio.com\/products\/blackstar-jjn50","provider":"Blackout Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
