What's encouraging is how it sounded and played for you. I wonder if it will be the next best bang for the buck amp?

sweet amp.
I'd agree w/ you, Tig, that they will become more available, and hopefully soon. I wonder whether the dealers can't get them, or only want one at a time to feel them out, but whatever the case they are n-i-c-e. At least the one I played was.
I surely would have bought it on the spot if circumstances had been different. The JCA20H has some decent clean headroom, but I REALLY loved it w/ the gain dialed up to where it got nice crunch when I dug into the strings w/ the guitar volume @ 8-10.
As for the Egnater, they have the reputation of being fine amphs, and I know Vood loves his, but I was focused on the Jet City at the time. I could have taken one for a spin, but, eh, maybe some other time.
