Fender Blues Junior NOS

Details

Fender Blues Junior NOS

I bought this Blues Junior in December 2007 and it immediately became one of my favorite amps. I had been through a long search for an amp that could give me classic Fender tone at a reasonable volume AND weight. The combination of low wattage (15 W), small cabinet and a preamp/master volume set up made this amp exactly what I needed both for my lessons and for gigging. I used it as my primary amp in all my videos and gigs for almost 2 years. For the price, it’s very hard to beat the tone you get from this amp. Compared to the older Series II Tolex Blues Junior, I think this one sounds much better. The main difference being the upgraded speaker. I’ve never compared it directly to the newer Series III Blues Junior.
