Practicing doesn’t have to mean playing alone, and the JBL BandBox Solo reimagines the experience with intelligent tools that respond to how you play. This compact, AI-powered practice amp and speaker uses real-time Stem AI to separate guitar, vocals and drums from streamed songs, so you can mute parts, isolate challenging sections or step into the lead whenever inspiration strikes. With bold JBL sound, built-in amp and effects models, onboard practice tools, app-based control, USB recording and battery-powered portability, BandBox Solo is built to help players practice with purpose, jam creatively and stay inspired wherever they plug in.
Real-Time Stem AI That Lets you Take the Lead
BandBox Solo’s standout feature is its Stem AI technology, which analyzes music in real time and splits vocals, drums and guitar into individual elements. This makes it easy to remove the original guitar part, slow down and loop a difficult riff, or lock in tightly with the rhythm section. Whether you’re woodshedding technique or just jamming for fun, BandBox Solo creates a more musical, engaging practice experience that feels closer to playing with real bandmates.
Big JBL Sound From a Pocket-Sized Amp
Despite its compact footprint, BandBox Solo delivers the bold, clean sound JBL is known for. A full-range speaker design powered by up to 30W of output provides clear highs, defined mids and enough volume to feel inspiring without distortion. Loud enough to turn heads yet controlled enough for home use, BandBox Solo proves that great tone doesn’t need a big cabinet.
Versatile Amp Models and Built-In Effects
BandBox Solo packs a wide range of classic guitar amp tones and essential effects directly into the unit, eliminating the need for pedals or external gear. From vintage crunch to modern edge, players can dial in phaser, chorus, tremolo and reverb with just a few adjustments. These built-in sounds encourage experimentation and make it easy to find a tone that feels motivating every time you plug in.
Practice Tools That Actually Improve Your Playing
Beyond tone and AI features, BandBox Solo includes practical tools designed to build real skills. An onboard tuner and metronome help tighten pitch and timing, while pitch and key shifting make it easy to practice songs without retuning or straining your voice. Headphone output supports silent practice sessions, letting you keep playing late without disturbing anyone else.
App Control, USB Recording and Play-Anywhere Freedom
The JBL One app puts full control of BandBox Solo in the palm of your hand, from EQ and effects to AI stem separation and practice tools. A built-in USB-C audio interface allows you to record ideas directly into your DAW without extra hardware. With up to six hours of battery life in a lightweight, portable design, BandBox Solo is a powerful practice companion that’s always ready when inspiration hits.
