As long as you are happy with it and it works for you, that is all that matters. Looks good. I was not familiar with that model. Keep us posted on what you think about it.
Enjoy!

JDR seems to be one of the better made Chinese harps.

As of right now I think it’s close between this one and my Manji which one I like more. While I really like my Golden Melody I def prefer these two. Maybe that will change when I start bending and getting into the deeper stuff, idk.
I put reverb/delay after distortion/overdrive.

I have only just begun playing harp, a budget selection of blues harps by Gear4Music, not brilliant but good enough to practice with. The Lee Oskar is my first proper harp, big difference I found straight away, holder so i can play along with my acoustic. Shure SM57. Not got a dedicated harp mic or amp yet, but I do have a Mesa Boogie Express 50w stack which is probably overkill or a 5k PA system I use for our blues band. Got a Pentaharp on the way to try out.

I am not familiar with the Fender champ 20.
I play through a premiere twin 8 amp and use a husky mic with the black thunder Element.

I recommend storage bins, they allow you to utilize vertical space as well. Lol
