Product Description

This upgraded version of Fender's Acoustasonic Junior, the world's most popular acoustic amp, is a portable, well built, easy-to-use combo amp designed for natural electric-acoustic guitar sounds as well as vocals. New features include handcrafted onboard digital effects and an XLR line output (with level control & ground lift). The Acoustasonic Junior's two 40-watt power sections drive a pair of 8 in. low-frequency drivers and a tweeter. Separate Instrument and phantom-powered XLR Mic channels each contain individual EQ and Phase switches for feedback reduction, and FX. Fender's String Dynamics(TM) control tames harsh treble notes on the instrument channel, and Feedback Notch control removes most feedback problems. Fender tilt-back legs aim the sound where it's needed.

With more than a year spent on research and development, the new Acoustasonic Jr DSP now feature handcrafted Digital Signal Processing effects that combine the clarity of Fender's Acoustasonic Series with the versatility on board digital features to offer musicians a complete palette of acoustic possibilities. The Acoustasonic Junior's new DSP effects include Reverb, Delay, Chorus, Vibratone, and more, all of which are specially designed and optimized for acoustic performers.

4.5 out of 5 (83 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "Fender Has Done It Again... Im Addicted."
Sound: I play through a Godin XTSA in the acoustic input, and use a diamond compressor so draw out the sring definition... wow. The combination honestly sound better then most real electric acoustics. The clarity and versatility of the acoustic sound on this amp is unbelievable, I was floored. Feature: How many acoustic amps offer this kind of variation in effects and eq, not to mention the optional Mic input, which sounds great. This amp has it all in one efficient little package. Ease of Use: Like most of the other reviewers on here, I would like to be able to find a good working footswitch for this amp, but not such luck so far, other than that its a pretty straight foreward amp, plenty of options without any complex lingo, and I like that. Quality: It seems pretty solid, the sounds quality and the components seem pretty good, I have been looking at this amp in store for several months, and when I got it home to have a closer look, it was all pretty exact to the specs, so you're not getting let down if you read up on this amp and know what you're getting into. Value: I really expected to pay a lot more for this amp, by the time taxes got to me, I was paying almost 2 grand for my Supersonic amp, mind you it is a tube amp, but still, to me this is easily and equal quality amp for its purpose, so I would have paid more if I had to. Manufacturer Support: 5 Year warranty is killer, but give me a foot switch ! The Wow Factor: Ive got this setup usually a few feet away from my Supersonic when playing... that is one sexy combo :p. Overall: Couldnt ask for more, this is top notch, Ive been experimenting with various amps for a while, but I dont think I can get away from fender amps anymore, and this one just has me hooked. Ive tried a few others (roland, behringer,etc), and they just dont stand up in terms of quality and value. This amp is going to be with me forever. Theres nothing more satisfying than buying equipment and knowing its a permanent part of your setup.
Style of Music: Jazz/Progressive Rock/Funk.... Way more acoustic played than you would assume

This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "I've owned several of these babies."
Sound: First, I purchased the Acoustasonic 30 a few years ago. It was a great amp, but didn't quite have enough power for me so I sold it. Then I purchased the Acoustasonic Jr and loved it and used it for several years until I sold it to buy the DSP model last week and it sounds just as good as the original. Great for acoustic guitar and microphone, also, though I rarely use it with a mic. I have pushed two acoustic guitars through it though and it is a fantastic amp. Great sound. Easy to use, rarely have to set volume past 3 or 4 and if you send it through to a sound system, you don't need to push it more than 2 (and use it for a monitor). Feature: I like the expanded effects (DSP model) but I wish the footswitch (optional) had a control feature on it to select effects. You must pre-set the effect prior to the song and turn it on/off with the footswitch. The effects are better than original, but still not 100%. Choral, reverb, virbrato, delay, and multiples of those. I would love to have a fuzz just for kicks. Quality: great workmanship and good quality. I love the amp and wouldn't use any other brand for my acoustic guitar. Value: The original at approx $375 was a great value, but the DSP is about $475 and that is a little too much, given the extra features. I think $400 - $425 (internet pricing) would be a better value. The higher price may price it out of the market for some people. I was fortunate enough to buy a "blemished" model for a little under $400 and if it weren't for that, I probably would not have sold my old one and purchased the new one. The Wow Factor: Very well known product.... Easily recognized as the premium acoustic guitar amp. Very sexy. Overall: I don't think I'll ever replace this little baby..... Unless I go to the SFX model way way way in the future.
Style of Music: jazz, pop, original
