The Squier Classic Vibe '50s Tele sounds great through the Fender Pro Junior. I tried to show a lot of variety in tone, by simply adjusting the volume and tone knobs. My setup was guitar -> cord -> amp, I didn't use any pedals. The Pro Junior has both knobs set at 12 o'clock. I added some reverb when I mixed down the recording. Simple rig - but versatile! Where to buy

Skip, it is such a simple amp - only 2 knobs. Definitely learn to use your guitar's volume knob, to control how much gain/fatness you want from your tone. The amp cleans up nicely. It is hard to play this amp quietly though. Volume should be at least 10 o'clock I find. I use Tone at 11 or so. Comment added on September 01, 2010skip said... Robert, great video. Want to talk a little about the amp? I just bought one. Any tips? Comment added on September 01, 2010John Mayers said... These 50's CV telecasters are fantastic value for the money. Better than the 70's American tele I had for 20 years. But not as good as the 50s reissue I also have - but that was way more expensive. joe stan said... Hi,i have one of theese tele for years. ive changed the pickups to seymor Duncan nashville studioes ive been using it 25 years with a fender twin reverbe amp and i wouldent change it for any other guitar as ive used most of the top guitars over the years, and this is my favouret axe,joe stan Southern Ireland.

I've tried one of those, and couldn't agree more. These have better than average sounding pickups. (Alnico 3's) Beef/weight in the body. Smooth sounding neck, the nut helps here. Try one into a 1-15" or 2-12". Can be as good as Tele's costing several time more. Comment added on September 01, 2010 |
