Agree. A2 in the 59n would be great.

For the JB, I still don't think you're going to notice enough difference with just a rough cast A5. A better selection would be the UOA5. It still keeps all of the character of the original JB that you like, but just warms it a bit without going all the way down to an A2 type of tone.

it's more of a subtle nuance. it's going to be what the JB had in the 80s, as well as what they were using in the Anniversary model. it's not as blatantly obvious as jumping to an A2 but it's less than going to an UOA5.
