Amp for jazz

[GuyB]

For you jazz players, what kind of amp do you use ? I'm going more and more toward jazz and I'm starting to think of another amp. I now use a Traynor YCV 50 Blue (and hoping to try a YCS 50 as soon as I can put my hand on one). I do like the clean channel the Traynor gives with my Godin FlatFiveX or with my archtop Morris. But I would like to know what you jazzmen out there use for a round, mellow, velvet jazzy tone.

Depends on what kind of jazz you are playing

I also have a YCV50BLUE and I like the tone it gets for my little foray into stage band jazz, I'm quite happy with it.

Yes, there are about as many styles as there are amps :eek:

Cheers!

I'm still baffled with the new Roland Cubes....a Roland Cube 60 will give you a great clean sound at a modest price.

That's what I use and I really like it...

Any amp that is clean can be a good jazz amp. It's not that complicated.


Jazz itself is.
