Members ksl Posted January 11, 2020 Members Share Posted January 11, 2020 Hi all~ I'm truly torn between the JMI Head & the AC20 Deluxe head,,, great sound clips of each amp online & they sound very similar. The EF86 is my favorite feature in favor of the AC20, and though it has only a 'cut' tone control, the dip switches seem to offer additional tone control. No one carries them I would not be able to audition one, which is where you'all come in,,, I trust you folks... I already have an empty 1x12 Morgan shell to receive a new chassis!

Members Grant Harding Posted January 11, 2020 Members Share Posted January 11, 2020 I'd go for the one that makes the sounds you want when you plug the guitar you're intending to use into it. I realise it sounds complex, but I know people that have chosen amps this way and they swear by it. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ksl Posted January 11, 2020 Author Members Share Posted January 11, 2020 I hear ya,,, both amps share 'that' sound I really like,,,,🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeepEnd Posted January 11, 2020 Members Share Posted January 11, 2020 Honestly, I'd be leery of dropping $2k on an amp I couldn't try first so my vote would be "neither." YMMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 1001gear Posted January 12, 2020 Members Share Posted January 12, 2020 Not to schmooze Harding but just buy a Kemper and BDWI (be done with it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Grant Harding Posted January 12, 2020 Members Share Posted January 12, 2020 If they sound the same then go with the cheaper one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Kenny 🕉 Jeff Tweedy was playing Morgan amps for a while. He has a great sound.I believe Jeff used the AC40's Musicians Friend and Sweetwater Music both carry them and have a great return policy. By the time I get where I need to be, I never return anything. Personal I'd probably do the AC20. I already have a Dr Z Maz 18 w/ reverb and a factory eq bypass. My next amp should probably be a Swart Atomic Space Tone. I have been looking at hem for a while. How ever, I have a lot of amps to choose from.
