The JBL BandBox Solo is a compact portable practice amp and Bluetooth speaker that helps you get more from the songs you love. For drummers, its standout feature is Stem AI: remove the recorded drums from a streamed track and make room for your own groove. With 18W RMS output, one guitar/microphone input and built-in practice tools, it's also a handy companion for guitarists and singers.
Why we love it for drummers
Playing along to a recording can make it difficult to hear where the original drummer ends and your performance begins. The Solo lets you isolate or remove drums in real time, giving you a way to study a pattern, then practise your own part against the rest of the music.
Use it to explore fills, learn arrangements or work on locking in with the bass line. The onboard metronome supports focused timing practice, while its compact format makes it easy to keep close to your practice space. Think of it as a personal backing-track and learning tool, rather than a replacement for a larger rehearsal speaker.
Play along with Spotify & Apple Music
Pair your phone or tablet with the Solo over Bluetooth, then play a track from a streaming service such as Spotify or Apple Music. The music plays from your device, and Stem AI processes the incoming audio on the BandBox to isolate or remove drums, vocals or guitar in real time. You can work with your usual playlists without first creating separate backing tracks.
Useful for guitarists & singers too
The single guitar/microphone input keeps the setup straightforward. Guitarists can explore vintage and modern amp models plus effects including phaser, chorus and reverb, with presets and sound customisation through the JBL One app. Singers can remove the recorded vocal to practise their own melody against the accompaniment. A tuner, pitch shifter and looper add more ways to develop ideas.

A compact way to make practice more musical
Choose the Solo if you want a portable, individual practice setup with useful backing-track control.

For guitarists and singers, the instrument input and onboard tools make it useful beyond music playback.
