Some of the Jazzkats I have seen on ebay recently appear to be
prototypes. Jazzkat discontinued their 8" models, and it seems that
someone may now be selling off the surplus stock. They were also
selling the 8" speakers used in the Jazzkat (Celestion TN0820). I
actually ordered one, but it was damaged due to incorrect packaging so
I returned it. It cost me return shipping, but at least the return
was accepted.

I was an early adopter of the Jazzkat, and I still like it. I picked
up a Blueskat for cheap on ebay (which seems identical to a Jazzkat,
but with an eminence whizzer cone type speaker). Taking the line-out
from one amp, and splitting it to the lin-in jacks of both amps gives
a real nice stereo effect, especially with the reverbs on the two amps
set defferently.

I was initially unimpressed, but checked out their current lineup, and
officially hereby change my tune.

TomKat: Two channels, 10" speaker, adjustable tweeter, lots of watts,
effects, and only 20 lbs*. Kewl in the extreme.

The CoolKat looks nice, too.

*: Oops: the user's manual says 24 lbs. Sigh.

I have what appears to be exactly this model, sand the red JP
signature. Sounds great for the size. Fuller than a Mega Brute, not as
full or nice as my old Clarus 1a/RE cabs.

I have the old Jazzkat 8" which I love.
But prices being this low, I was worried that maybe they're Fakes?
