The Harley Benton HB-15GXD JamBox is a versatile little practice combo for beginners. It includes a 15-watt modelling amplifier and several other useful features for experimenting and practising at home, such as a drum machine with adjustable tempo and 36 rhythmic patterns for accompaniment and an AUX input for playing along to your favourite music. The HB-15GXD might not have all the bells and whistles in the world, but it does provide all the fundamentals you need to take your first steps in the world of electric guitar – at a very affordable price.
The HB-15GXD JamBox is a modelling amplifier. This means that in addition to the regular sound processing options such as EQ, distortion, and various effects, it also emulates the characteristics of amplifiers from different musical worlds, ranging from jazzy cleans to gritty distortion – all in a single device. This is especially interesting for beginners who have not yet found their own sound, since it lets them experiment freely. The JamBox can produce a whole variety of different sounds, which can be further enhanced and experimented with thanks to the on-board reverb, delay, and modulation effects (chorus, flanger, phaser, and tremolo).
Harley Benton's HB-15GXD JamBox is mainly aimed at beginners and will provide a solid practice amplifier for home use. The built-in rhythm section is an especially useful feature for practising alone, as is the AUX input, which allows you to connect an external sound source to play along to. Of course, the JamBox can also be operated near-silently thanks to its headphone output, which the neighbours will doubtless appreciate late at night. What is more, the amp simulations mean that you don't have to commit to a specific sound from the outset that you may not like later on, and instead leave plenty of flexibility for the future.

All in all, this Harley Benton amp offers newcomers the full package at a bargain price. Beginners with a small budget who are looking for a versatile amplifier will find the HB-15GXD JamBox a reliable companion with which to take their first steps in the world of electric guitar.
