Fender did a good job at improving the flaws. I had a BJ3 that I ended up selling because it was always complicated to have a balanced sound.
With the BJ4, I see a marked improvement in the action of the Level and Master, as well as in the responsiveness of the EQ.
Installing an HP Celestion A-Type provides a balanced treble, mid, and bass response.
The only downside, in my opinion, is the constant presence of GT tubes, which have a loud microphone and loud highs. As with Deluxe Reverb, the best alternative is to replace the lamps.Automatically translated

Is the Blues Junior IV Black suitable for rehearsals and small venues?
With 15 watts tube power, a 12-inch Celestion A-Type speaker, and a total impedance of 8 ohms, this combo is suitable for rehearsals, studio use, and clubs with mic reinforcement. Its dimensions are 406 x 249 x 457 mm, and the listed weight is 14.3 kg.
What sound does the Fat mode of the Blues Junior IV offer?
The included 1-button footswitch, reference 0994059000, activates the âFatâ mode. This mode boosts the mids and thickens the tone for solo passages.
Can headphones be used or pedals connected in an effects loop?
There is no headphone output or effects loop available on this model.
How to adjust the crunch on this Fender amp?
The single channel combines the Volume and Master controls to shape the gain. Increasing the Volume causes the EL84 tube circuit to produce organic crunch and then a more singing distortion. The Bass, Middle, and Treble EQ allows adjustment of the Celestion A-Type speaker's response.
What reverb is built into the Fender Blues Junior IV Black?
A redesigned spring reverb is integrated with a dedicated control. Its design is reported to be smoother than on previous versions.
