zZounds Live: Friedman JJ Junior Jerry Cantrell Signature Amps




Friedman invites you to explore the limits of complex, overdriven tones with Jerry Cantrell's signature JJ Junior model! Based on the fully-powered 100-watt JJ, the JJ Junior harnesses the bone-shaking brutality of the original in a 20-watt package.

Available as both a head and a combo, the two-channel JJ Junior churns out Alice in Chains' vast range of tones with ease. Channel one carries you from sparkling cleans to crispy breakup, while channel two brandishes authoritative overdrive. Need even more oomph out of the amp? Just flick the JBE switch for an added jolt of gain and harmonic complexity. And with the amp's XLR DI output with cabinet simulation, the JJ Junior makes silent practicing a piece of cake.

Still curious about the Friedman JJ Junior? Check out this edition of zZounds Live as Justin pushes the JJ Junior head to its limits!
