Fender Blues Junior

All tube amp, (15 watts) surprisingly powerful really punchy. A guitar input and nothing else. Master Volume + Treble / mid / bass, a preamp + function Knob fat (it boosts the sound with great musicality). An HP 12 "found on the 100 w amp brand. This simple architecture and architectural works!

UTILIZATION

Child's play, you plug, you play it sounds. The only limit is the ratio volume / gain, in fact, alone but rather a studio amp, if you play with the drive to the bottom power is enormous and the HP all cash (I have my Rhodes over time to time). In its clear the preamp is less demand, the volume is smaller. In short, this is not a multi-channel amplifier.
I do not see this as a limit in the sense that it sounds better than anything I had (Marshall JCM 800 / JCM 900, Fender Twin Reverb, Fender Princeton, Hughes & Kettner Tubman!)

SOUNDS

It is super versatile depending on the settings, the only limit is the metal. It's a sound that goes from very light (clapton, robert cray), the highly saturated (led zep, cream, black crows), through the wonderful crunch (john lee hooker, keith "hard riff", etc. .. .).
I've mostly studio, he made me sell my twin and my two bodies marshall. It transforms all good guitars guitars, I play with a Epiphone Sheraton type, a Fender U.S. Start Plus, a telecaster us, an SG, everything sounds.

You just have two on stage with a bypass, and then use the pedals to compensate for the lack of highly saturated channel (I put a Guv'nor, a Boss OD or VOX ToneLab + neutral setting of the amp .

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 7 years at the time it was much cheaper, I do not regret it can not. To understand the current price I think it done.
A bonus would be an outlet to attack a second baffle.
