Peavey and Joe Satriani have collaborated to create the all-new Peavey JSX® 50

Peavey and Joe Satriani have collaborated to create the all-new Peavey JSX® 50 guitar amplifier head, the latest project in the Peavey JSX Series of signature amplifiers and enclosures designed with the guitar legend. Like the three-channel Peavey JSX Head and JSX Mini Colossal™ before it, the new JSX 50 aims to give guitar players a wide new tonal palette that allows them to express an abundance of sounds and styles. But that's where the similarities end. With the JSX 50, Satriani and Peavey have redefined the classic 50-watt guitar-amp format with extensive tone-coloring tools to aid modern guitarists.

"Traditionally, 50-watt amps always seemed to have the perfect amount of volume and sag to create a true rock & roll moment," said Satriani. "But the golden era of the 50-watt didn't see a version that had a variety of sounds or that were actually useful tools for the gigging musician. Peavey and I were finally able to bring this idea of a really rockin' 50-watt into the modern era where real guitar players can use it. We wound up with a really bold, in-your-face sound."
