Thank you for purchasingJAM BUDDY!
It took Joyo's engineers two years to develop this patented new product: the JAM BUDDY Dual
channel 2x4W pedal guitar amp.
Combining guitar playback with its reduced high frequency range due to the sound of 12 inch speakers
and also full range normal music playback is adifficult task. Some products on the market have
already dealt with this issue and they are nice practice boxes that are controlled by hand on atable top.
But this is not how guitar players operate their gear, we need our hands free and we stick our gear with
our feet. JAM BUDDY combines both aspects, it is afloor based dual channel amp simulator that can
be switched with your feet and also accepts aBLUETOOTH signal to play back your favorite backing
tracks and songs you want to jam along to.
JAM BUDDY has arechargeable battery,abuilt in delay and it accepts pedals in front of it really well.
Everything you need to practice and have agreat time doing it!
