I took the Blues Junior NOS back to GC after reading all the horror stories about Hotrod series amps. I exchanged it for a 65 DRRI, which I am pretty content with. Anyway, I started reading about the Ampeg Jet 20 and from I what I gather they are basically a handwired brownface Deluxe clone. Should I exchange the 65 DRRI for the Ampeg Jet? It's cheaper than the Fender, and its all point 2 point HW.

Ampeg amps are pretty much their own thing not really a clone. Great sounding reliable amps. The J20 has a ton of headroom.
Only your ears can tell you if it's for you. I might sell my HRDlx and pick one up. One more trip to the shop and it's gone. I tried a J20 in NY and it was awesome. No reverb, but a good sounding amp really don't need it. I was more interested in the tremolo. One of the best I've ever heard.
