TRY IT

The Jensen® Luma 112 BB40 is an official DynIR from Jensen Loudspeakers®, captured from a custom built open-back cabinet inspired by a vintage 1×12 Mesa Boogie® 23” enclosure outfitted with a 12″ Blackbird 40 driver.

When it comes to bonafide vintage guitar Sonics, Jensen Loudspeakers® exist in a class of their own. Not only were they the certified must-have for Leo Fender’s first foray into Guitar Amplifiers, Jensen® cemented their heritage throughout the 1940s, -50s and -60s as the go-to for the period’s most legendary amps (including Fender®, Ampeg® and Gibson® no less). Fast forward to today and Jensen® exist as a steadfast pillar for traditional and contemporary guitar sonics alike – whether it’s classic vintage tone brimming with vibey mojo, or modern state-of-the-art design engineered to influence generation after generation, Jensen® continue their mission of pioneering drivers to inspire their customer’s creativity with sublime tone and night-after-night reliability.

Any tone-connoisseur will tell you, when you’re seeking musical dynamic compression and the pinnacle in top-end shimmer, only a driver fitted with a reinforced AlNiCo magnet will do! With the 12″ Blackbird 40, expect the pinnacle in Jensen®’s AlNiCo-powered tone-bending knowhow, primed for authentic “tweed” style tones and set to elevate your sonics with all the tonal-prowess of their heritage-inspired range.

Sonically, brace yourself for a powerful and organic sound, capped with a robust bass response, focused mids and crystalline highs. But don’t take our word for it, they’re highly revered by the likes of Mesa Boogie® thanks to their ‘vintage dynamic sensitivity, upper midrange attack and tight bass foundation’! Fit this in a custom-built open-back cabinet inspired by a Mesa Boogie® 23” enclosure and you’re set with exceptionally tuned cabinet resonance, a tight dispersion and the ultimate platform that delivers the pure unadulterated sonics of the companion driver!

Available individually or as part of the “Jensen®’s Contemporary Classics” DynIR Cabinet Collection, the Jensen® Luma 112 BB40 has been exquisitely captured using studio-grade mics and recording peripherals to deliver the perfect blend of primo tone and seamless adaptation from the studio to the stage.
