Jet City produce quality valve amps at an incredibly accessible price-point. The 100H LTD is a 100-watt head featuring EL34 output valves, as opposed to the standard 100H's 6L6 valves. This 2-channel amp has an overdrive circuit designed by the legendary Soldano - a manufacturer of premium amplifiers including the legendary SLO-100 which was used by Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler, and Eddie Van Halen, who later based his own iconic 5150 amp on the same design. This same SLO circuit is featured on the 100H LTD's overdrive channel, giving you affordable access to a legendary valve tone.
The Jet City 100H LTD has 12AX7 preamp tubes and EL34 power amp tubes for an incredibly touch-sensitive sound with a mid-range focus and British-style overdrive. The crunch channel can deliver clean sounds through to mild overdrive, while the drive channel is a real Soldano-design and creates a harmonically-rich tone for saturated leads and crunchy chords. The tube combination creates a mid-focussed sound that is ideal for cutting through the mix with crunchy rhythms and liquid-smooth leads.
The 100H LTD features multiple speaker outputs and a high-quality tube-buffered FX loop to integrate you own FX pedals. This makes it immediately ready to integrate with your speaker cabinet of choice and your pedalboard - where the 100 watts of power can project over the largest stages.
Launched in 2009, Jet City Amplification aims to produce amplifiers with fantastic tube tones at highly accessible price-points for the average guitarist. Focussing on quality rather than quantity, Jet City uses premium components with simple and focussed touches to provide usable, rugged devices without any superfluous features. Jet City also produces effects pedals, an attenuator, an isolation cabinet, and various other tools for working musicians.
Total Guitar Magazine gave the JCA100H (non-LTD version) 4 out of 5 stars:
" Soldano's input here carries a hefty chunk of credibility and quality….
Jet City's mantra is "100 tube tone; 0 Bull****", and, interestingly, we found ourselves concentrating less on tweaking the tone controls and more on just playing the damn thing - which is always a good sign."
