There is a cure for the line level loops though.
They're great amps, well made, robust, using good components - I've gigged five of them over the last few years and even tracked down and re-bought my favourite one.
They come in lots of flavours though, what sort of sounds are you looking for?
The effects loop is fine on this model.
Personally I think they are amazing amps for the price. I’m comparing that against my Mesa solo rectifier.
I find it really responsive to playing dynamics and have no problems using it live rather than the Mesa, in fact I prefer it due to size/weight etc.
I don’t think anyone would be disappointed in any of the models considering their price and what you get for that price.

No connection....
The 50W and 100W heads have a line-level effects loop, between the main gain stages and the tone stack. That leads to some oddities - the signal level is very much dependent on the gain control, and there's some clipping which occurs in the tone stack (so you can't have a boost in there for a pure level boost).
the JCA22H has a line-level effects loop, but it's after the master volumes so it's much more sensible and predictable. I believe this is the same on the JCA20HV.
The Custom 22, I think, has an instrument-level loop after the master volumes, so it's a lot more pedal-friendly.
The JCA20H doesn't have an effects loop at all.
