2002 Fender Blues Junior “Mary Kaye” Limited Edition – Rare USA-Made 15-Watt Tube Combo

Rare and highly collectible Fender Blues Junior “Mary Kaye” Limited Edition, produced in July 2002 and presented in excellent condition with only the slightest evidence of previous use.

This is a particularly hard-to-find version of the Blues Junior, distinguished by its beautiful vintage-inspired cream/blonde cabinet, brown and gold grille cloth, leather-style handle, and Fender Custom Instruments badge. These Mary Kaye editions rarely appear on the used market and are considerably more collectible than the standard Blues Junior.

I’m located in the Sacramento area and am always looking to buy guitars, basses, amps, pedals and other musical equipment. If you have gear you’re looking to sell, feel free to reach out — I’m happy to buy individual pieces or entire collections.

The Blues Junior is one of Fender’s most popular compact tube amplifiers, delivering classic Fender clean tones, genuine spring reverb and warm natural tube breakup when pushed. Its 15-watt output makes it equally at home for recording, rehearsals, home use and smaller gigs.

Between its distinctive Mary Kaye cosmetics, early 2002 USA production, excellent condition and scarcity on the used market, this is a particularly desirable version of the Blues Junior and a great opportunity for a Fender collector or player looking for something well beyond the ordinary black-Tolex model.
