Really happy with this

Clay

This is a powerful little box! Incredible value. What attracted me was that it's analogue, simple, and has all the I/O I need. This box really comes to live with a preamp and/or some type of drive pedal with eq and coloration in front. In my experience, you'll want and need that additional flexibility from a few pedals in front to dial in your tone, and let me tell you, it plays read more GREAT with EVERY single pedal I have from drives to delays and verbs. I really like the five settings this has...I personally keep coming back to the "combo, normal" setting. Fantastic clarity, transparency & feel. I'm very comfortable playing live with this in lieu of bringing a tube amp...in some ways I even prefer it. I'm really not one to sort thru a lot of digital menus, etc. If want good, straightforward tone without an amp, put this at the end of your board & I think you'll be really pleased.

A Really Nice Direct Box

I'm 67 years old and don't want to haul heavy amps around. I used this for our gig last weekend and took a small practice amp (Fender Champion) with me. The JDX worked wonderfully. I did the "thru" channel to my small amp and then direct to the PA system. Our sound man also had a monitor in front of me and the bass player. We could hear everything and the JDX was great! Our read more other guitar player has a rule...nothing over 20 pounds. I love my good old Hot Rod Deluxe 212 amp but it's a bear to lug around.

JDX Direct Drive DI

Well I was a little bit skeptical about going amp free at my gigs. But I have to say this DI does what it advertises. I like the sound and it rocks the house. Works well with my Boss ME 80 floor processor and I don't have to carry my Marshall amp to the gigs anymore. I am 65 and the less I have to carry to the gig the better. Way to go Sweetwater. Another promise made and kept. read more Got it delivered in less than a week. Now I am good to go. Thanks Sweetwater

In a few words, this Radial JDX Direct Drive is perfect for me. It's transparent, it's rugged, the amp sims are just what I need. Simple and easy to use. Great product.
