Starting with the mid-60s JTM 50 variant, we combine a dual EL-34 power section with a tube rectified power supply, available by selecting “tube” via the rectifier switch on the back panel. Along with the tube rectifier, setting the \u003cstrong\u003eEMS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e’\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e sensitivity switch to “low” and “Touch” response switch to the down position, this combination will produce the bloom and feel of the early American tweed amps but with the British charm of EL-34 output tubes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlashing forward to the 70s, the essence of the “small box” JMP amp is available in the \u003cstrong\u003eEMS\u003c\/strong\u003e by selecting the “solid state” rectifier via the back panel, selecting “low” sensitivity, and using the “Touch” switch to match the amplifier with your choice of guitar. Using the same circuit topography of the JTM series, only with a more powerful solid state power supply, this sound is noted for its lightning quick response and cutting “kerrang” in the upper midrange.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eEMS\u003c\/strong\u003e incorporates the cascaded gain stage design found in the 80s JCM series. By using the “high” sensitivity switch on the front panel, and selecting solid state rectification, hard rock and classic metal tones with tight bass response and singing gain will come screaming out of your guitar. We massaged the circuit to remove some of the annoying, persistent high-treble this era of amplifier has been maligned for and boosted the gain a bit further so that more “modern” drive tones are available higher on the gain knob.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWe welcome offers and ship worldwide.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWe pack our guitars and amps extremely well for shipping using professional packing supplies.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuyer is responsible for any and all import fees and taxes - (No tariffs or import duties on this item for USA buyers)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLet us know if you have any questions!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Northerner Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52384202555612,"sku":null,"price":2900.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/7751\/3180\/files\/1_7b7a46b7-9431-4dba-bcc7-82920ea9eec3.png?v=1787938520","url":"https:\/\/northernerguitars.com\/products\/used-dr-z-ems-50-watt-guitar-amp-head-2021","provider":"Northerner Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
