Choosing A Jazz Guitar Amp

By Eugenia Dickerson


People who love jazz tend to be passionate about it. As a genre it often attracts people who really enjoy it and want to get the most from their instruments. If you play guitar and want to get the most from playing it in this style then you should ensure that you get the right jazz guitar amp.

In some ways this decision can be difficult. On the one hand it is a technical decision as you are deciding what is effective and efficient. You want to be sure that what you are buying will be reliable and will not go bust by the time you get on stage. Therefore you have to be sure you are buying from a reliable manufacturer, music store or website.

Another practical consideration is when you are on stage. If you travel around a lot then you will probably want to keep the amount of items you have to take with you to a minimum. This is why you may a speaker and amp combo so that you do not have to carry both of them separately.

However some people prefer the sound of having an amplifier separate from a speaker. There is not necessarily a right or wrong to this. It is about listening to the sound and gauging whether this is appropriate. What you like in terms of sound may be different to someone else.

This is where digital technology has complicated things. Some devices have been set up that can digitally recreate different types of sound. The theory is that this digital sound can mimic the best quality brands, allowing you to adapt with other members of the band who may use a different brand of amplifier without having to change yours for something completely different.

Another aspect of this is the level of customisation. Some people like a control panel with lots of knobs and switches so they can have more control over the level of sound. However if you have only recently starting playing the jazz guitar it is unlikely you will want to make using an amp more complicated. Therefore in this context it is probably best to use a simpler control panel.

Once you have established something that should suit you then it is best to test it. Make sure you have your guitar with you so that you can listen to how the amplifier improves the sound. If it does not improve the sound consider looking for another option that is more appropriate. You do not necessarily have to buy the amp from the store but it is a good way of learning more about the options available and how appropriate they are for your style of music.

There are numerous places you can buy a jazz guitar amp from. It is worth looking online for feedback from other guitarists to find out the kind of amplifiers they use and why they use them. Checking product reviews and other sources of feedback will make it easier to find the right one to suit your needs.
