Pigtail with 12/2 it's easier to use and is fine for a 20 amp receptacle. Most likely the old 30 amp breaker is on 2 phases and you would be fine running 2 new breakers but unless you know for sure do what you said.
Help with DIY dedicated circuit
I am wanting to install a dedicated circuit for my amp, but getting from my panel to the wall behind my amp is going to be difficult. As I was investigating in my attic, I realized that when I changed my stove from electric to gas, the unused 30 amp Romex 10/3 wire will reach within 15 feet of where I want the wall outlet. Do I install a junction box and run Romex 10/2 to the new wall outlet and use the 30 amp breaker? What is the best way to connect the wires in the junction box?
