Joe Bonamassa has announced Spring Tour 2020 dates. The trek begins February 13 of next year in Montgomery, Alabama and wraps with two nights at the Paramount Theatre in Seattle on March 20 and 21.
General ticket on-sale begins July 26.
Recently, the blues-rock guitarist teamed up with Fender to issue the ‘59 Twin-Amp JB Edition.
The 80-watt two-channel combo boasts a Fender 5F8A circuit, a hand-wired eyelet board and Fender vintage-style “yellow” paper-foil-resin tone capacitors. There also are four 6L6 power tubes and three 12AX7 preamp tubes as well as two Celestion JB-85 signature speakers that are exclusive to the amp.
As Bonamassa told Guitar World, the greatest thing about the JB is that it sounds virtually identical to the original it’s based on. “It’s just new,” he said. “It’s not improved.”
As for what Bonamassa loves about the new reissue, he continued, “It’s the headroom and the ability to play dynamically,” he says. “From zero to five it’s clean, from five to seven it’s crunchy and from seven to 10 it just roars.”
