Fender introduced the Blues Junior in 1995, and has revised and updated it periodically since then. Blues Junior history can be divided into two major categories: the early amps with green circuit boards are USA made and the later ones with cream-colored boards are MIM. The cream-colored board is laid out entirely differently than the green board. The biggest change is the reworked reverb circuit. But the old ones sound darker, while the new ones are brighter, possibly a bit too bright/ kinda thin and brittle with more emphasis on treble tones. One is not necessarily better than the other; the dark tones are nice for blues, and still has great clean tone as well, while the newer MIM amps do brighter, surf tones better. As noted in the title of the listing, this amp was just serviced by a well respected amp tech here in the Southern California area, new tubes, Celestion G12M speaker Greenback 12' speaker- much better sound- and really works well with the EL-84 power tubes! Think Vox AC-30 kinda vibes. Built circa 2000 in Corona, Ca. this Blues Junior has normal cosmetic wear for an amp this age, fully functional and just looking for a new home!
