Lovely example of the limited-edition Fender Blues Junior III in the distinctive two-tone Cream/Wine finish with wheat grille cloth and ivory chicken-head controls.

This version was factory fitted with the highly regarded 12" Eminence Cannabis Rex speaker, rather than the standard speaker found in the regular Blues Junior III. The original-spec Cannabis Rex is still fitted and can be seen in the photographs.

The Blues Junior III is a compact 15-watt all-valve combo, using 3 × 12AX7 preamp valves and 2 × EL84 power valves. It features genuine spring reverb, 3-band EQ, Volume and Master controls, and Fender's FAT boost circuit.

Condition

Very good condition for its age, as shown in the photographs. It's a tad dusty where it has sat around for over a decade. There's also a couple of very minor scuffs on the top that are barely noticeable.

The amplifier is fully working with no known issues. This was purchased back in 2011 - 2012 in Southend-on-Sea, Essex. The amp drives beautifully. All hardware is original.

Collection welcome due to the weight and nature of a valve amplifier. Based in Maldon, Heybridge, Essex.
