Check out this amazing Jim Kelley Line Amp we just got in. This one is Line Amp #20. These are incredibly rare and don’t pop up often. Known for their incredible clarity, touch sensitivity, and dynamic response, Jim Kelley amps have long been a secret weapon for players who demand the best.

This Line Amp delivers a beautifully balanced tone with rich harmonics, tight low end, and a smooth, musical top end. It takes pedals exceptionally well and excels in both clean and edge-of-breakup settings, making it perfect for studio work or refined live rigs. Don’t miss your chance to grab a great amp from one of the most respected builders in the game. The amp is in excellent condition with only a few small blemishes to the wooden headshell (shown in photos).

Key Features:

  • 4x Jan Phillips 6V6GT Power Tubes

  • Tungsram 12ax7 for V1 and V2
  • Ultra-responsive, touch-sensitive feel

  • A/B footswitch, Boost Pedal

  • 50 Watts

  • Effects Loop

  • 6db Level boost (footswitchable)
Here’s what Jim wrote about the amp:
About Line Amp #20:
I’ve mounted the finished chassis in a Padauk headshell. It’s the brother of the LA-16 amp. It’s stunning and photos don’t really do it justice at all. It has my favorite NOS 6V6’s as well as the Tungsram front end tubes. The sinewave stays perfectly clean all the way up until clipping in either channel. Immaculate. And the Line Amp harmonic generator makes a textbook harmonic series. I’m still using the Orange drop polypropylene capacitors and the 1 watt metal oxide resistors. Those resistors are very quiet and are nearly indestructible.
I made a short time lapse video showing the wiring process of LA-20 in a series of still photos. It’s up on YouTube:
