Hello, Jag fans over the world! I'm looking for a good amp for my Jaguar. Maybe somebody is experienced with diffrent tube and solid state amps and recommend something?

Good option or Marshall 1959SPLX super lead is ultra clean! But yeah the twins one of the amps known for jag use.

Mesa Boogie Heartbreaker, at least, if you're into high gain Jaguar stuff. That's the amp I played a 63' Jaguar through, sounded great clean, and coulda eaten a Flying Vee for lunch in the distortion department.

super reverb!!classic clean tone.

Stock Jags sound exceptionally well through Marshalls, valve of course.

I've played mine through a JCM and DSL with great results clean and distorted.

Dirty - Marshall JCM

Clean - Roland JC120

Thanks for help, guys. About Twin you are 100% right. I spend today 2 hours in music shop and played with my AV reissue 62 Jag through different amps like:

VOX 30 TopBoostCC2

Fender Hot Rod De Ville (Mexico made)

Fender Hot Rod De Luxe (Mexico)

Fender Twin Reverb (USA, 2001)

Jag

With stock Jag pups i think the EHX Big Muff is about the best that i've tried even though its more of a fuzz, Boss distortion pedals just dont do it for me.

Boutique distortions may be better or stuff like the mesa-boogie v twin pedal.

Check out marshalls line of pedals I heard there pretty good.

Spitfire

Yeah, the blues breaker is pretty good.

So ive heard im gonna check out the Guv'Nor and the Jackhammer .

Spitfire

Our singer uses a Guvnor and it sounds a bit lifeless and 'generic rock' to me, mind you it's one of the older ones in the black box.

BanditGuitarist1

Yeah a friend said the older ones arent as good as the new ones idk i have to wait till my GC gets some instock they had both but one guy came in a bought them both and a metal muff. 😈

Fran

hmmm....

The Guvnor is a bit ho-hum, the Jackhammer is almost identical to the Boss MT-2 (great for scooped mids humbucking RAWK!!1) and the BB-2 is pretty good. A decent overdrive that goes into distortion territory when cranked and it also features a clean (ahem) boost of about 20db mode that is very good for pushing valve amps. Well worth trying.
