Well my car repair bill has come in and it's cost and arm and a leg so up for sale is my Jet City JCA 20HV head.

Little blurb and specs about the amp below:

"Single Channel. Vintage Voiced. Depth Switch. Effects Loop.​
 
A legendary guitar hero asked if we could tweak his 20H to be just a little cleaner, and a little darker. We liked the way it sounded so much, we decided to put it into production. But first we added a Depth Switch and post-Master effects loop, and gave it a new look. 
​
Controls: Preamp Gain, Bass, Middle, Treble, Master, Presence, Depth Switch
Tubes: 3x 12AX7 Preamp / 2x EL84 Power
Rectifier: Solid State
Cabinetry: Multi-ply, void-free hardwood
Chassis: 16 gauge, cold-rolled steel
Output Power: 20 watts into 16 ohm or 2x 8 ohm speaker outputs
Effects Loop: solid-state loop by Mojo Tone
Input Power: Multi-tapped power transformer at 100v/120v/220v/240v and standard IEC connector
DIMS: 9″Hx9″Dx19.5″W
Weight: 21.3lbs net"

To my ears it sounds really good, breaks up quick so not much headroom but does get some really decent tones at a low volume.  Had this around four months and I never have had the volume past 1 because I live in a flat but even at that low volume you can get a decent low to medium gain tone.  With the depth switch engaged it can definitely give your sound more body and depth.  I know a lot of tube amps sound like ass when a volume is lower than 3 but this really does sound boss at a low volume.

Built in effects loop and all the mod cons you would expect!

Looking for £120 collected from me, based near Uxbridge in North-West London, can travel in to C. London on the weekends if necessary.  I'm about 10 minutes drive from J4/M4 Heathrow too.  Can't post this I'm afraid as I do not have the original box.

    haha!  I keep on looking at it and remembering how bloody good it sounds even at the volume at 1 and I'm really tempted to just pull the listing ;)

    Unfortunately I cannot because the boxes I have would all be too small so end up being a mess of cardboard and not really post-worthy!
