TC Electronic Jims 45 Preamp 2-Channel Amp Modeling Guitar Pedal

TC Electronic JIMS 45 PREAMP Overview

Resurrecting the sough-after sound of a 45W 1965 Marshall JTM45 Plexi tube amp with advanced TC Ampworx modeling tech, the Jims 45 Preamp from TC Electronic delivers the authentic tone, touch, and feel of a vintage tube amp. Sporting two channels (green for master volume control, red for stock circuitry), you can easily reproduce classic British rock and blues tones.

Each channel features independent gain, volume, and EQ controls for perfect tonal shaping. A 5 dB boost is included with its own footswitch, and you can select either Pre or Post boost modes from the rear panel, with Pre boost allowing you drive the amp model harder with a distinct mid-frequency hump. Both the DI output (ideal for PAs, mixers, and interfaces) and the headphone output (ideal for silent practice) offer IR-based simulations of a Celestion 4x12 G12M Creamback cabinet for the sound of a real vintage combo amp. And as a pedalboard-friendly platform, the Jims 45 Preamp will take drive pedals like a champ.

The Original Guitar Hero
Jimi Hendrix is not only remembered as one of the greatest guitarists to ever live, he is also respected by generations of guitarists for his innovations with guitar equipment. While his signature strat played a role in his sound, it was also formed by his pushing of '60s era tube amps and fuzz pedals to their limit.

Enter the famed '65 Marshall JTM45, a 45W powerhouse known for its legendary plexi tones. With advanced Ampworx capture technology, TC Electronic delivers the incredible volume and crunchy overdrive tones that have made Marshall's mid-1960s amps so famous and sought-after.

Bypass Mode
Right out of the box, the Jims 45 is set to Dual Channel mode. This configuration keeps the pedal engaged at all times, granting instant access to each of these unique sonic profiles.

However, if you prefer a more traditional stompbox experience, TC Electronic incorporated a bypass mode. Entering this mode allows you to simply stomp the pedal on and off, allowing you to switch between bypass and the channel used before entering bypass mode.

Built-In 4x12 G12M Cabinet
The cabinet speaker plays a crucial role in any combo, and thanks to the advancements in convolution-based IR technology, TC Electronic can now capture the essence of the past with exceptional precision and authenticity. To give you the true sound of the original, they joined forces with Celestion and incorporated the official Celestion impulse response of the revered G12M Creamback 4x12 speaker cab. It's an excellent match that reproduces every nuance of your riffs and solos with equal amounts of ease and elegance.
Pre- or Post-Boost
Jims 45 features an extra addition not present in the original 5150 amp, a 5 dB boost circuit. To enhance its versatility, the pedal offers a selectable Pre or Post boost mode. In the Post mode, the boost circuit functions as a volume boost, elevating the output level without introducing any alteration to your core tone. It simply provides a transparent and pure increase in volume, allowing your original sound to shine through.

Switching to the Pre mode repositions the booster before the amp modeler in the signal chain. This setup drives the amplifier with greater intensity, simulating the effect of a vintage tube screamer placed in front of your amp. This introduces a touch of grit and character, delivering a tasteful vintage-style drive.

Presence Control
By incorporating a global Presence knob on the rear panel, Jims 45 is able to adapt to any musical scenario you may encounter. Recognizing the likelihood of pairing this pedal with a diverse array of amplifiers, cabinets and pedals, TC Electronic introduced this convenient and universal control, enabling you to establish the overall sonic direction. By increasing the presence knob, you will add a touch of brilliance and some additional warmth to match your desired tone.
Fully Connected
The Jims 45 offers three independent outputs, all of which can be used simultaneously for a three-way split. You get a DI output ideal for front-of-house (FOH) and PA systems, a line out, and a headphone out for silent practice. The DI and headphone outputs both feature cab simulation of a Celestion G12M Creamback 4x12 cab, while the line out sends a pure, amp-modeled tone, allowing you to send the line out to an optional external IR loader if desired.
