I bought a new Blues Jr iii Special Edition in Feb 2012 from a local music store. Saturday (April 14,2012) it went "pop" and blew a fuse. I put in a new fuse and it went "pop" again in like 3 seconds. Just took it back; it does have a 5 year warranty. I loved it up until Saturday. Kind of upset right now, but I'll give them a chance to fix it.
