The plate on the back says Type PR 257, serial numer T-32941. the tube sticker doesnt seem to have any of the number/letter stampings that fender talks about on their product dating page. any help would be great!

Pro Jr.'s have been manufactured from 1993 to the present..... its not considered a vintage amp by most people. So dating it might not be too important except for your own curiosity.

Fender does provide some guidance for dating their modern amps.... that information can be found here.

"All Fender amplifiers manufactured from 1990 to the present include a date code, printed on the quality assurance (QA) sticker on the back of the amp chassis. This black-and-silver sticker contains several lines for "sign-offs" on completion of sound and electrical testing. The final line contains a date code of two printed or handwritten letters denoting the amplifier's production date by year (the first letter) and month (the second letter)."

You need to find the Black and Silver Sticker... not the tube chart. You might need to pull the chassis.

Hope that helps.
