Hey, I'm Sadler Vaden and
today we're going to check out The Fender Blues Junior and Pro Junior version four.
Let's take a look.
[MUSIC]
The Fender Blues Jr is a tried and true classic.
I've played many gigs with one, I've owned one for years.
They've done a really nice job of updating a classic amp.
One addition is the modified preamp circuitry,
which gives you a little more room to push the amp but not lose any tonal clarity.
[MUSIC]
We've also modified the spring reverb.
That's the classic Fender sound.
This update seems to be a little more musical and
sounds like it's within the amp.
[MUSIC] Let's take a look.
[MUSIC]
Yeah, it's got a nice delay on it, too.
Really has a 60s feel.
[MUSIC]
This amp is also equipped with a new Celestion A Type speaker,
which sounds really good to my ears and it gives you that sort of 60s
British rock sound without being brittle and harsh on the top end.
So let's take a listen.
[MUSIC]
One feature I really dig on the Blues Junior is the Fat Switch.
And you can push that in on the amp but also comes equipped with a foot switch,
where if you're playing live and you need a little boost and
a little mid range boost, you can hit that from the floor.
So let's check that out.
[MUSIC]
And, lastly, the Blues Junior comes with a few cosmetic updates.
They have an aged grille cloth, give you that vintage vibe.
Also, a steel-reinforced handle, to endure years of touring.
And also white ivory knobs that are easier to see while you're on stage.
Now, let's take a look at Pro Jr version IV.
One of the great new feature of the Pro Jr is the modified volume circuit, so
as volume increases and it get dirtier, you do not lose that sparkle in your tone.
So let's check that out.
[MUSIC]
This amp has also been revoiced so that when you turn the amp all the way up to
get that grit and dirt, your tone doesn't get squashed and turned to mush.
The bass is tighter and it's also more harmonically satisfying.
So let's check that out.
[MUSIC]
The amp is also equipped with the ten inch Jensen speaker for
that classic Fender sound.
The Pro Jr only has two knobs, a volume and a tone, which really is all you need.
But if you're looking to add some pedals, it takes effects very well.
So a little slap back delay.
[MUSIC]
Everything about the Pro Jr is classic, from the 50s era grill cloth,
the lacquered tweed covering, the leather handle for
that vintage look, and the chrome control panel.
[MUSIC]
Hey, I'm Sadler Vaden and thanks for checking out the Blues Jr and
Pro Jr version IV.
And stay tuned for more great videos from Fender.
