IR-J or hold out for JEL 20?

[romanianreaper]

Craving a JEL 20 and thought it would be a simple amp for gigs. I used to have a JJ Jr. and a PT V2 but the JEL 20 is more my tone.

Wondering if I should get an IR-J in the meantime and use it with my Powerstage amp or just hold off and get the JEL 20?

I own the IR-J and have played the JEL 20 and the feel is very similar. The IR-J is a beast for certain and I am sure with a decent power amp it would sound excellent. It sounds really good through my Laney GH30R effects loop as well as my old peavey rackmount power amp.
