MESA/Boogie Celebrates 40-Year Partnership with John Petrucci with JP-2C 1×12 Combo Amplifier

MESA/Boogie is the original boutique Home of Tone, hand-crafting amplifiers of uncompromising quality from the world’s finest materials in California, USA. Founder Randall Smith instilled basic principles into MESA, such as passion, drive, integrity, and excellence, and his insistence on making the best amplifiers has guided half a century of breakthrough innovations, elevating the amplifier into an instrument in its own right, one with the power to shape and create musical genres. Today, in celebration of a partnership that has spanned over 40 years, MESA/Boogie and John Petrucci guitarist, lyricist and founding member of the GRAMMY® Award-winning progressive metal band Dream Theater, are proud to announce the new JP-2C™ 1×12 Combo. The MESA/Boogie JP-2C 1×12 Combo is available now in a limited edition run at authorized MESA/Boogie dealers, and on www.mesaboogie.com.

“When designing the JP-2C with the team at MESA/Boogie, the goal was to build an amp that covers everything while honoring the heritage of its iconic Mark IIC+ predecessor. It offers three channels of authentic Mark IIC+ tones and also includes updated features like Dual Graphic EQs, MIDI, and a CabClone Direct Out that make it the ultimate amplifier for today’s guitarists in any situation. The new JP-2C 1×12 Combo incorporates all the features of my JP~2C Head into the classic 1×12 Boogie Combo format. They’re great for gigging because they’re versatile, loud, and powerful. You don’t have to bring a separate head and cabinet to a gig. It’s a portable rig!” –JOHN PETRUCCI

The new MESA/Boogie JP-2C 1×12 Combo marks an expansion of MESA’s first unlimited production signature amplifier, the JP-2C™ Head. As is the case with John Petrucci’s stunning JP Head, this new 1×12 Combo is all MARK IIC+ at heart and packs the same legendary performance of the fabled 100-watt IIC+ as well as all the updates and features of today’s JP-2C. All of the headroom, horsepower, and burning Tone is packed into our legendary Boogie® “wolf in sheep’s clothing” compact 19” combo format.
