No the JSX doesn't like EMG's (one of the main reasons I sold my hellraiser nd my Loomis).
I run mine with the master volume up at 5 and then I dial in the channel volume, to me mine sounds thicker this way.
engaging the loop also thickens the sound up as well (I don't know why but it does).
also turn the onboard noise gate no higher than 5-8 as that is one of the controls on this amp that can add a "nasally" tone to the sounds.
experiment with th mid control anywhere between 4-7, it drastically changes the tone of the amp, It really opens up at around 6 or so.
