| Yep, had one for more than 10 years. Quite good, loud enough and sounded even better with my Telecaster. Unbeatable reliability and not too heavy. Never used the chorus effect, though – especially not for pedal steel. But both of my current amps, a Peavey NV 1000 and a reissue Deluxe Reverb sound better with steel. |

| My friend has one. We were in a band together and we'd rehearse at his place. He left the JC set up for me so I wouldn't have to haul my amp. Sometimes he'd bring it to gigs for me. Loved it. I'm surprised I don't see more psg players using them. |

| If I'm not mistaken the clean channel on the Roland Cube 80 XL is identical (or close) to that of the JC 120...I love the way my steel sounds through it. |

I use a JC-40 and it is great for me. I've previously owned a few JC-120s, but I don't need anything that big and loud. The 40 is just fine for me.

Yes...and the Roland Cube 60 does a pretty good job of impersonating it too...
I have two of them and play in stereo..

| I had one for a short time, a Blues Cube Artist. It was a good guitar amp but broke up much too soon for pedal steel, at least for my liking. |

The Blues Cubes sound like nice amps, but perhaps not suited to the PSG as much as the Roland Jazz Chorus series.
I'm looking at getting a JC-22 as a smaller amp for gigs in small venues. I have a Nashville 400 at home but its heavy to pack around. |
