Notes
You would be AMAZED if you knew how many of your favorite guitar parts were recorded with one of these legendary grossly underpriced beasts.

The Roland Jazz Chorus 120

There was a time in music history when basically EVERYONE was using one of these amps…
you know why? Cuz they sound fucking amazing

For what it costs to buy one of these , there is really no excuse not to have one

Certainly not the right amp for everything, but the stuff it IS right for? There ain’t nothing better
