Does anyone own a blues junior? If so, can you tell me if you crank it does it get a good vintage overdrive? And also please explain what the solid -state rectifier does also. Thanks

If you read the many previous posts you'll find out a hell of a lot about the sound of the Blues Junior..

To answer the other part of it. the rectifier provides high voltage to the tubes. solid states are nice because they provide consistent power to the tubes where tube style rectifiers tended to bog down when higher power was required from them. this was good or bad depending on your viewpoint since it provided sort of a natural compression at high output. At least that's how I understand it.
