Re: Suggestion for upgrade of a Fender Blues Junior amp

MJ Harnish	Re: Suggestion for upgrade of a Fender Blues Junior amp This is a just a suggestion but why not just build a new amp from scratch? You're essentially changing all of the expensive parts (both transformers) and you're going to have to completely hack the chassis to get the new tube sockets in as well as mount all the new transformers. It seems more cost effective to just build a new amp and either save or sell the Blues Jr. After all your finished product isn't going to sound anything like the original amp. MJ
