I'm not 100% sure but I think they use the 3.5mm style, the same as the ProCo Rat. They are available in both Atlanta and New Zealand.
You can see one in this picture.

As an owner of both the GT-2 and the Original SansAmp, I can confirm that the GT-2 that I have takes simply a Boss-style, center-negative 9V adaptor.
However, I have seen GT-2s with the 3.5mm adaptor (which is also what the Original SansAmp used), but I'm not sure if it's a regional thing or if those were very early models.
Two examples:
Either way,
the 1-Spot combo pack should cover you.

see the second one is the one i have. Its just kinda hard to find. Ill probably just go to best buy and buy a adaptor for it

If you're going to go that route, Radio Shack is more likely to have what you need than Best Buy.
I'd highly suggest something like the 1-Spot though, as it's a better value in the long run than a single-purpose adaptor.

When I had one it was standard boss 9v centre negative... however, if this mini jack connection is anything like those compatible with the Electro Harmonix for example then I would recommend a Diago blue adaptor !! ... in conjunction with your regular adaptor.

How do these two compare to each other, btw? I've always considered getting one of them but wasn't really sure if they were worth the money, and how the two compared to each other.

I believe I summed it up best in this post:

I absolutely love the Original, and I think it's a great investment if you can find one. I've been half-assedly looking for another just to stash away.
