Classic tone

Great amp, great sound, too loud for the neighbors and too heavy to carry all the time.

Great for "quiet" gigging and you living room

- Responsive and clear sounding.

- Handles pedals well.

- Beautiful edge of breakup tone.

- Plenty loud enough for studio, small acoustic/jazz gigs and living room.

Would absolutely recommend as an affordable, very well-sounding small amp. To my ear it does not sound boxy or small. I am playing an ES335-style guitar with humbuckers.

The spring reverb is good but pretty "springy" to my ear. If spring reverb is your thing it's great. I use a reverb pedal that fits my reverb taste more.

I do not use the Fat switch, but control the fatness/sound of the amp via the volume on my guitar. There are no indication on the foot switch or on the amp whether or not the Fat-switch is on other than the fat switch itself and of course the sound. I'd maybe use it if I could see whether it was on or off on the foot switch.

Nice sound as I expected, Very fast shipping to Lithuania

But I need overdrive pedal now because Fender Blues Junior IV distortion is to weak :D .

Top value for money

there's a reason why this amp is still as popular as it is. Not too loud for home use but the tones really get better as your crank it louder.

A classic

The sound and tone of this amp has nothing to fear from its bigger brothers

this is my second blues junior had my first one for about 10 year and started playing up so i bought another because i didn't won't to be without while my other was being repaired. great amp for the money. crystal clear and a fantastic creamy tone when played at low volume. turn the volume up and its equals most and more expensive amps . great all rounder. don't think i would buy any other.

What a fabulous little 'grown up' amp

I had a tweed Blues Junior in 1996 and was not particularly impressed with it. It just sounded like a small weedy amp. I sold it and bought a Blues DeVille - which I really liked.

This Mark 4 Blues Junior is night and day different. I am sure that the 12" loudspeaker has contributed much towards its 'grown up' sound, but I suspect that Fender have essentially taken a Blues Deluxe circuit and removed a few features (Drive option, Send & Return etc.) to reduce the physical size of the circuit board in order to give this little amp a very impressive authority.

It stands up surprisingly well against my 2002 first generation Bad Cat Cub llR, only lacking a bit of definition in the low mids - which may well be addressed with a better 12" loudspeaker.

Really nice little amp and man enough for small stages, not just hiding in bedrooms like the early version.

Great sounding amp

I love this amp. It sounds superb. I can't give it any criticism.

It does everything I want it to do.

It's loud enough for a gig and quiet enough for practicing.

Blues Junior IV

This particular version is perfect for me. I had a III Blues Junior. Well... This new amp have good upgrades like a professional circuit board, bias adjusted to more low, encreased bass response and improvements on reverb circuit. Now you can use the reverb without loose the punch. The new version has a footswitch included!
