Re: Talk me into (or out of) buying this JC-120
here is how I used my JC-120.
I had a XXX. In the loop of the XXX, I had a Rocktron multi. The left went to the loop return. The right went to the JC-120. Poor man's stereo rig with stereo effects. The JC would get the same sound the XXX's preamp was making, dig? Plus the chorus, for the extra neato. It was weird but fun, and quiet.
I also had a Cube. The Cube's JC channel is great. Plus it has distortion models and a bunch of effects. You could get 2 of those for the same price.

ontFeartheReaper). Blackstars are great. I use a Bugera22 cuz it's the cheapest I could get with 2 power tubes to crank. Trust me, tubes are worth the "hassle". I gig alot and I've only had to change em every ten years. Real distortion is tube distortion, and power tubes add roar to preamp tube saruration. Let me add I use an ibnz distortion pedal w a jj preamptube. That cost 125, the tube was 12, the amp was 350, and its stack quality re: killer crankin' distortion, and clear warmth. I'm not bragging, I'm sharing simple science and economy...good pro dist sound=name pkup+crankin' preamp & power tubes+practice not playing sucky.
