Jared James Nichols has built a reputation as one of the most talented players in the world today a true player’s player.

Jared has been a Blackstar Artist for 14 years and we’ve been honoured to work with him on his second signature model with us, the JJN 50 & JJN 212 VOC. As Jared’s career has grown, so has the size of the stages he plays and it has come to a time where his amplifier is also in need of growth. We worked closely with Jared to develop his new signature model and we’re extremely proud to reveal the JJN 50. This amp has been road-tested on tour around the UK and Europe and tweaked to perfection, to deliver Jared’s awesome BLUES POWER tones.

Features

Based On – The St James JJN50H is based on the St. James 50 EL34H which has been part of Jarad’s live rig in recent years. They’ve opened up more of the top end of the amp to allow a wider spectrum of frequencies which compliments Jared’s playing style.

Signature Tone – Low-to-mid gain pedal platform with a Blues Power boost circuit to unleash Jared’s signature growl.

IRs & Reactive Load – Built-in reactive load and CabRig, Blackstar’s next-generation IR-based cabinet simulator which comes pre-loaded with 3x of Jared’s personal patches.

Connectivity – Pro connectivity and integration into your setup using low latency USB audio as a valve interface for recording, and XLR D.I. for live use.

Signed Certificate – Each amp comes with a certificate of authenticity hand-signed by Jared.
