    I'm anxious to hear the difference with your amp since I already knew what the BJ sounded like with the Jensen. Please do a couple of demos with the Strat neck pup. I'd like to hear the differences. I think any mod one does on the Blues Jr. greatly improves it. Even simple tube swaps and speaker swaps make huge differences.

    Here's a clip recorded on the Blues Junior with a variety of sounds. Recorded with my Strat in 4 sections:

    #1 - Bridge/middle in parallel, clean
    #2 - Bridge/middle in series, with ZYS for overdrive; SRV lick
    #3 - Neck, clean
    #4 - Bridge/middle in series, with tremolo pedal. What's more Fendery than surf music?

    Tone stack settings were Middle at noon, Bass and Treble both around 2 o'clock.

    BTW, the background hiss in that clip is NOT the amp--it's coming off the guitar & pedal chain. I forgot to turn on my Boss noise gate pedal before I started recording.

    The Blues Jr. itself is very quiet.
