After everyone's excellent help and input decided to order the Jet City JCA22H which has arrived today. I'll post some pics later on when i've got it set up and given it a test ride at home.
I'm sure the 20 watts will be loud enough for the usual pub gigs i do.
Took it out of the box and the build quality looks rather good and the panel, switches look much higher quality than they do in pictures. It's also heavier than i expected. The only thing i don't like is the blue panel on the front. I'd prefer it if it was black or a see through grill of some type, but that's obviously subjective to us all as individuals and won't affect the tone.
I'll be using it in anger on Friday and Saturday night so will be able to give a bit of a review as to how it copes in a gigging environment through a 2x12.

Don't get me wrong, I agree they're killer (and current prices are awesome if you want to buy one ). But I can sort of understand why what's happened has happened, too.
This serves to illustrate the ignorance and snobbery that can exist in this world! Everyone who uses one says it's not quite as good as a soldano, but there is a good price difference between them.
I think it was @icbm who posted the schematic compared to a real one, and to my untrained eye they look pretty close to identical. Just an amazing amp.
I really need to work out if I want a 22h and cab, or whether I want a 6505 head and cab next year. Hmm.
