Fender Limited Edition Blues Junior IV Guitar Combo Amplifier (15 Watts, 1x12")

zZounds Gear Experts Say...

This limited edition Fender Blues Junior comes equipped with either a Celestion Greenback, or an Eminence Private Jack or Swamp Thang speaker.

Overview

One of the most-beloved small combo amps in the world, the Blues Junior IV adds modified preamp circuitry, smoother-sounding spring reverb and improved aesthetics that any player is sure to appreciate. A 15-watt favorite in any setting, this amp is ideal for guitarists who need to hit the stage or studio at a moment's notice with warm tone and versatile features.

This special edition features Blues Junior IV comes in three varieties, each equipped with a unique speaker: a Celestion Greenback, Eminence Private Jack, or Eminence Swamp Thang.

The Greenback is voiced with additional broad mid-range attack and restrained top-end to give a forward punchy attitude to chords and a searing lead tone without fizz. With its well-controlled low end it can be used singly in low-powered amps or in multiples for high-power rock heads.

The Private Jack is chock full of Classic British flavor. A very well balanced speaker, thick and smooth, with lots of mids and extended highs.

The Swamp Thang is designed with heavier players in mind and provides a thick and chunky tone with loads of sustain.

I'm mostly a bass player who has been getting into guitar more and more as I build a small home studio on the cheap. My experience with guitar amps has been a Fender Mustang 2 and a Line 6 Flextone III, both great amps for modeling and the Mustang is a fun little practice amp but I wanted to try effects pedals and I had always wanted to try tubes. I've been with the amp for a couple of weeks now as I build my pedal collection and I'm very happy with the Blues Jr iv for that purpose and more. The 12" Greenback and the 15 watts are more than enough power for the studio, the fat boost is great when you get into overdrive territory and while I haven't played out with it yet I'm sure I could play small venues using only this amp. As a pedal platform I can get a very clean tone and let the pedals do the heavy lifting or simple turn all the pedals off and hit the fat switch and crank up the gain a bit for that natural Fender tube overdrive. Still leaning a lot about the tones and the possibilities and I'm extremely satisfied with this amp. zZounds and Fender do it again!
