I purchased the Pro Jr. at Guitar Center in Sherman Oaks, CA, but I had to return it because the rear I.D. plate said Blues Jr. instead of Pro Jr. minor detail, but - your know. I paid $250 at the store. I bought because I heard some blues/rock guitar players sweared by its tone. So I checked it out and fell for the great tone. For a small amp still very loud (15 watts).

The tone, absolutely. Plus, the overdrive tone. Over 7 you hear it and beyond that look out.

It's a bit noisy. Yeah, I know, all tube amps are. But this I read in printed reviews of this particular amp that the noise level a bit higher than one desires. But I had a Polytone 102 combo amp and being solid state that amp had some hissing noise.

SIMPLE - two knobs - well built. Light

Terrific TONE. Great portability. Too noisy for some of us, but tone makes up for it.
