"Sure, we can discuss which amp was the biggest gamechanger. But just imagine hearing this amp paired with a Tube Screamer back in the early 1980s. The tone was unlike anything ever heard at the time. The original variants featured only one channel. But being a specially designed tube-driven amp, JCM800 entered some super-heavy territories when paired with appropriate overdrive pedals."
