Hi, I just bought a new (or so they said) Pro Junior in a dutch store, its a limited red edition.
When I got home, I found out the powerplug is attached to an adapter, is this normal for the red pro juniors?
Its a British style plug attached to a adapter for use in mainland Europe.
Is this safe to use?
There is a label attached to the cord with what to me looks like strange english i don't understand very well. It says instead i should cut the cord or something, can't it be just used with the adapter.
Also was it normal to release the red pro junior like this in europe?!

Welcome to the Forum. Sorry I can't help you as I do not have the answer, but I laughed pretty good at your handle ( name ) RogerFenderer I assume and of course I could be wrong, that's why they say one should never assume, are you a tennis fan by chance ( Roger Federer )

Where do you live, wich country do you want to use the amp ?

Dutch use 220 to 240 volts wall outlet. What is the voltage at your home ? 240 or 120 like in North America ?

A 220-240 volts amps won't work on 120 volts

Do you see any voltage selector at the back of the amp ?

Your country use 230 volts , you can plug this amp on your wall outlet.

If the plug is not standard to you country, you can cut the wire an use the plug you need for your home.
You may have to replace all the wire if needed

That is the paper in "bad english" said .

I don't know electricity law in your country but if adaptor work and wall voltage is the good one you can use the amp .

About what Fender deliver in Europe, only people live in Europe could tell
