Hamfisted String Banger
Tried a JP2C today. It is actually a VERY nice sounding amp. Much better than the V IMO. I think they nailed it.
In the end, I found myself twiddling all the controls to try to get it to sound like my Archon. I think I got it pretty close, and If I had them side-by-side it might even get there. Of course you have to turn a lot of knobs and push around EQ sliders to get anywhere with the thing.
Not a bad price for a 3-channel amp. But I'm getting used to using only 2 with the Archon, and not using pedals much, and it is more and more the right thing for me. The one place I am using a pedal is to get a light bluesy OD using an OD808.
Funny that my ideal tone for the 2C would be what I get right out of the box with the Archon. I don't think the V could get there, I think the 2C could, though I wonder how to get that really sweet high-end.
The 2C feels really heavy, but it si listed as 40lbs vs. 43lbs for the Archon. Weird.
