Product Description

With two channels of Soldano tone and 100 watts of pure tube power, this is Jet City's flagship. The Normal channel has plenty of headroom to deliver clear, bright clean tones and can be driven hard enough to get downright raunchy. The Overdrive channel is the circuit that made Soldano famous. It's been modeled and imitated, but this is the real-effing-high-gain-deal. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Jet City Amplification products.

Customer Reviews
5 out of 5 (20 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Jet City brings HUGE sound with their JCA100H at an almost too good to be true price!"
Sound: The sound and tone is BIG. I play in a sludge/doom metal band and it's perfect! We dig bands like Electric Wizard, High on Fire, Crowbar, Eyehategod, Obituary, etc. You will probably want to boost or add some more distortion if you're playing thrash, hardcore, or that crap they call metalcore these days. For what I use it for, it's perfect! You can also get awesome classic rock, blues, even surf sounds from this! Very versatile! Feature: One input, footswitch, effects loop, multiple ohm outputs. It's straight forward and easy to use, so it's right up my alley! Ease of Use: I run this through a Marshall full stack with a 1960A and an AV - and the amp pounds. The Vintage 30s make this thing really come through in the mids. Quality: I understand this is a more entry-level amp, but it definitely feels solid and I have no complaints or worries about the build. It is now my #1 amp and will travel with me everywhere. The only thing I noticed was on the input jack; the guitar cable doesn't "click" in or whatever. Tough to explain, but definitely not a functionality issue. A+, especially for the price! Value: 100% worth every penny. I will never buy a >$1500 amp again. The Wow Factor: It is simple and that's what I like. Big sound in a solid, affordable package. I was drooling over it for two weeks prior to purchase. I will be replacing the faceplate with Jet City's metal grill as the stock one doesn't go with the aesthetics of my other gear. Overall: I will be satisfied for a long time. I am not looking at gear for the first time in a while! I may use my Metal Muff pedal with it for other band situations that require different sounds, but for my main band, I go straight to the head.
Style of Music: sludge, stoner, doom, feedback, hardcore, thrash,

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Michael Soldano does it again!"
Sound: A Soldano Hot Rod owner, I was looking for the tight, warm, and expansive sound Michael is known for and I had toured with for 10 years. No longer a full time musician for quite some time, I didn't want to invest in the Soldano line, and had seen some demos of this new brand, of which he has designed. This amp has all of the above, and at less than half the price. Now, it isn't Soldano, but if you want a very close second, this is it. BTW- Active pickups seem to be more responsive to this amp.... Feature: One addition I'd like to see for the future is a depth mod, but for the $, the features are what one would expect. Ease of Use: Very easy to dial in based on simple eq controls. Add a parametric eq, and now you're cookin' with gas! Quality: Excellent build quality at first glance. My old Soldano was an absolute workhorse, and if Michael had anything to do with components, chassis, cabinet, etc, this will probably follow suit. Value: If you want Soldano, but can't afford to invest in Soldano yet, go with these. Very easy to dial in, friendly, quiet effects loop, warm, tight sound, for an excellent price. Doesn't get much better for the musician on a budget! Highly recommended by a former professional touring musician of ten+ years. Manufacturer Support: Not dealt with Jet City directly yet. The Wow Factor: Good looking head! BTW- you can order the black grill face plate for the head if you choose directly from Jet City. Much nicer looking! Overall: Excellent all around. Can't beat the price, quality, in this range. Highly recommended for rock players of any type!
Style of Music: Rock, Metal
