Amp Auction: 1998 Fender Blues Junior Jr - BillM mods - Made in USA

Amp Auction Description: This MADE IN the USA 1998 Fender Blues Junior is super clean! There are no rips or tears in the tolex and only a few minor scuffs. The amp is in great working condition with no issues. These amps have such great tone in a very small, lightweight, and portable package!About the amp. Using a kit from billmaudio.com I made a few changes. Here is a list of the mods:Power Supply Mod - Added another filter cap to stiffen the bass response. Provides more punch and incisive pick attack.Bias Adjust Mod - Allows the amp to be properly biased. Blues Juniors are often biased far to hot. This can shorten tube life and lead to other circuit board/solder joint problems.Tone Stack Mod - Sprague Orange Drop Caps correct the "boxy" tone of the amp. Replacing the speaker can also help fine tune the tone you are looking for. I ran a Celestion Greenback (highly recommend) in this amp but have re-installed the stock speaker for resale.Twin Stack Mod - (Actually it's just a simple jumper wire) This mod gives you all of your stock Blues Junior mid tones from about 4 and up on the control and fewer mids, down to none, from 4 down to 1. It opens up the possibility of an ultra-scooped tone, with just treble and bass, as well as bass-only overdrive, which can be very effective by eliminating middle and high harmonics.The amp has 3 Fender Groove Tube 12AX7 preamp tubes and JJ EL84 output tubes. NOTE: I will include instructions (from the BillM kit) on how to bias the amp should you wish to replace or experiment with different output tubes. All you need is a Volt meter, clip leads, and some careful respect for high voltage!The amp comes with a cover but does not include the "Fat" foot switch.Shipping will be through UPS to the USA lower 48 only. Only PayPal will be accepted. Thanks for looking!
