I didn't see a thread for the Blues Junior (I could have missed it) but count me as a member. I have the Blonde version.

Love these little guys!! I have two of them and have seriously modded them. I can use one or the other by themselves since they really do sound different or I might add an extra speaker to one or I use them both in stereo.
They're both black tolex but one is a green board and one is the cream board. I get a lot of flexablity with them and can do most any gig in any room with them. So Much Fun! |

60th anniversary green board owner with the standard BillM mods + audio taper master volume, switchcraft jack and ruby reverb tank owner here. This amp suits my needs to a T and has cured my amp GAS, at least for now.

We have 2 of them. An original B series green board & a blond C series green board. They have been good at home amps for years. They have been retubed a few times over the years & they both currently have Eminence Patriot Red White & Blues Speakers in them.

I recently picked mine up for $200 at GC, it had a broken reverb. $30 fixed that. Today I played one of these with the Jensen vs. the Eminence. That makes a huge difference to my ears. Now I have to go on a Jensen buying spree.

I just tried something I read in another thread (sorry can't find it anymore) to get to a "blackfacish" sound and turned down mids to like 3. Man, that really does the trick. (even my tube-screamer clone sounds good with that setting. Has a huge impact on treble and bass also. Recently I missed bass on a recording and now I know how to dial in (dial out the mid) May seem obvious to anybody, but I am someone who virtually never touches the controls and I had them mids turned up since using these little cubes to get the grind. and the bass get's really tight then.
So I learned that the versatility of this amp really is in the mid control and that a tube-screamerish pedal works best with a more scooped sound. And I learned that my little buddy can do more than I thought.
