    DESCRIPTION-

    JIMS 800 pays tribute to classic, guitar-driven rock. So, brace yourself as an unparalleled rock guitar tone gets up in your face! 

    Harnessing the cutting-edge TC Ampworx component-based modelling technology, we've successfully encapsulated the prowess of a glorious and iconic guitar head from the 80’s – all within a compact pedal. You’ll get the power of that era's unmistakable guitar tone right at your feet. 

    However, our commitment to delivering the ultimate guitar-hero experience went beyond merely reproducing the sound. We took great care to preserve the pedal's authentic look and feel, remaining true to the original amplifier. Every detail, from the control layout to the overall design, has been meticulously crafted to evoke nostalgia, as well as give an intuitive and familiar interface. 

    But why stop there? Why not enhance the guitar-playing experience without compromising the original tone and vibe? Well, we added a few ingenious additions that will enhance life for guitarists, uniting the best from the original amp with added modern and versatile features.
