JCR : A super useful and sturdy little box!

Radial make great gear and this sturdy little re-amp box is no exception.

Being a passive unit it's very easy to use - quite literally just "plug in and play". Most importantly it sounds great. The transformer is pretty much transparent when running the signal through more characterful amps and stomp boxes. On a cleaner signal chain it sounds smooth with maybe a touch of 'vintage warmth'. Very subtle and doesn't alter the original tone in any noticeable way.

I use the JCR mostly for re-amping guitars, but I've also used it for connecting guitar FX as channel inserts on a mixer - a task it performs nicely.

Sure, it doesn't come with lots of features... but it does what it needs to do VERY well; it sounds great; and it's built like a small tank. If you're in the market for a robust and reliable re-amp box, then in my experience this is it. Buy with confidence!
