An internally jumped input stage simplifies gain staging, while a bypassable effects loop allows seamless integration of modern pedals and processors. The unique dual Presence controls further tailor the amp\u2019s character\u2014shifting its voice between vintage and modern tones with precision.<\/p>\n

Built to Friedman\u2019s exacting standards, the JOSE is engineered to meet the demands of any stage or studio. It\u2019s a modern high-gain workhorse that honors the legacy of a true amplifier pioneer.<\/p>\n
