Members Critical Ninja Posted January 13, 2012 Members Share Posted January 13, 2012 This amp seems to have everything I am looking for...I am leaning towards either this or the Blackstar 20-watt head. The Blackstar has EL34's in it vice the EL84's of the Jet City, but is over $100 more expensive. What say you guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members awd83 Posted January 13, 2012 Members Share Posted January 13, 2012 Get it! I have the JCA20H and love it! Why not add the second channel and fx loop? Do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ej Posted January 13, 2012 Members Share Posted January 13, 2012 Both are great amps dude, I don't see how you can go wrong with either. The JCA is gonna be a little more vintage voiced, the blackstar more modern. It really boils down to the toan you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Critical Ninja Posted January 13, 2012 Author Members Share Posted January 13, 2012 OK, just pulled the trigger on the Jet City JCA22H...it will be ran through an Avatar 2x12 with Celestion V30's. Used the "friday13" coupon on MF to get it for $347-something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members awd83 Posted January 13, 2012 Members Share Posted January 13, 2012 I don't think you'll regret it! I think they sound wonderful, especially for classic rock, and I'm sure pedals can push it into metal no problem, I just don't use it for that.

Members Floyd Rosenbomb Posted January 13, 2012 Members Share Posted January 13, 2012 Good choice, I had the 20 watt Blackstar combo and honestly it was pretty disapointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mutant_guitar Posted January 13, 2012 Members Share Posted January 13, 2012 This is a trick question, both answers are right! love my HT-5 head, but I think the JCA20 sounds good, too. I just don't know if you can get those JCA amps to sound good at the lower volumes I play my HT-5 at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Woody_in_MN Posted January 13, 2012 Members Share Posted January 13, 2012 The biggest reason not to get it is JCA20H at about 1/2 the price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
