I recently purchased a Pro Junior off Ebay. The serial number is B-176390

The back plate says:

Fender Musical Instruments Corp.
Corona, CA 91720

It does not say: Made In USA or Made in Mexico

The ciruit board is green.

Anyone know when this was made and where? All of the Pro Jrs. I have seen say either Made in Mexico or Made in USA, Brea, California.

I could be wrong, but any amps I had starting with a B serial # from fender were made in mex., Which really isn't a bad thing. My B.J and HRD are made in mex., though I would preferr MIA.

I have not found the serial numbers to be a reliable way to date Fender amps or their manufacturing location. I typically see B-xxxx serial numbers refer to Black Tolex while the T-xxxx serial numbers refer to Tweed amps.
