Custom Voicing With Jared’s Signature Tone
Designed with direct input from Jared James Nichols, the St. James 50W head is built to deliver the blues-rock tones that Jared is known for. The amp offers powerful clean tones at 50 watts, with the option to switch to 2 watts for recording or practice, and a 'Sag' setting for vintage-style compression.

This saves the need for additional equipment while maintaining the rich tube tone. With USB audio connectivity for recording, XLR D.I. for live use and the CabRig IR-based speaker simulator, the St. James head provides professional-grade connectivity for any environment.

Lightweight Build With Signature Aesthetics
Built with a lightweight cabinet made from Candlenut plywood, the St. James head is designed for portability without sacrificing strength or acoustic quality. The amp’s custom British Racing Green livery adds a stylish touch, while each amp is delivered with a signed certificate of authenticity from Jared James Nichols himself, ensuring its place as a true collector’s piece.

Power Reduction for Flexible Performance
The St. James 50W offers multiple power settings, allowing you to switch between 50W for live performances, 2W for practice or recording, and a ‘Sag’ setting for vintage compression. This flexibility makes it an excellent choice for players who need a versatile amp capable of delivering warm clean tones or driven blues sounds at any volume level.
