Happy Holidays! The store will re-open Black Friday through December 1 for new custom builds on all models. December 2 until the end of the year we will be closed again to build orders AND some inventory to make leads times shorter. Although we might offer up some surprise builds in the meantime.

Hand-wired JCA800

Our hand-wired JCA800 is a faithful tribute to the legendary JCM800 2204 with one big difference - we made it smaller. JCA800 is a 50 watt, 2xEL34 amp in the same chassis footprint as all of our 20 watt amps. This enables us to offer all the same cabinet colors and size options.

Most of the time we have a few offerings. Choose one of the serialized amps (starting at 801) and for the most part those are ready to go. Adding any of the circuit mods will take us a few days. Or, choose the CUSTOM version and choose your own cabinet, tolex, etc. Those typically will take about 2 weeks to build.

Available mods:

Rear panel footswitch and rotary control:

  • Lead boost - uses the footswitch jack and rear-mounted rotary control to set the level of boost

or

  • Depth mod - added to the negative feedback circuit, this is a rear-mounted rotary control which adds bottom end

Front panel switch:

  • Gain boost - this two-position switch adds a small amount of additional gain without invading the circuit.
