Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
I'm currently looking for a smallish amp to sit beside my PC desk and had tried the Katana (which I thought was just ok - a bit overhyped, in my view - possibly because it's great value) and a Vox AV60 (they didn't have the 30 in stock) which sounded excellent, but even the 30 might be too big and it's not far off price of the JC22.
But then @Gassage got one, I found this thread, spent a lot of today on YouTube listening and since I have a handy sized Boss GT001 that I think would play nicely with the JC (stereo outs) - I'm almost pulling the trigger on one.
The 40 would definitely be too much for home.
Convince me its worth the cash! Have you (or anyone) tried it with a modeller?
Cheers!
I need a new amp, I was considering an Orange Crush RT35 but now I've seen this I'm not so sure!
I'll definitely be checking one of these out, that sounded lovely in that add. Thanks for posting.

I saw Roxy Music years ago and guitarist Phil Manzanera gigged with two JC 120's .. they were a very loud band.

The JC-22 wins on size and portability (although the JC-40 is actually not much heavier)
Not tried either with a modeller but the Big Sky sounds fantastic through the JC-40 and I imagine through the JC-22 also
Really stunned by the deep tone from the two 6.5" speakers - sounds like a much larger amp.
I have the ££ for a JC22, I tried one with headphones and it sounded relatively very good indeed. It would definitely sort out the home/silent practice beautifully.
It also sounded fantastic as an acoustic amp, but I did get the dreaded acoustic feedback at higher volumes. Is there some kind of feedback-eliminating pedal that I could use that wouldn't affect the tone? I'm using a Guild with a Fishman undersaddle pick-up.

Will it affect the guitar's tone, and does it matter if the pick-up is set just under the top edge of the sound hole?

My mate tapes a cd across the sound hole if he struggles with feedback. Works well
If anyone is concerned whether it'll be tough to match it with an overdrive pedal I can confirm that the usual cheap suspects work very well, Nobels ODR-1, Joyo OCD clone and most especially the Bad Monkey are excellent.
I'll do some kind of crappy video when I get a chance.
