I picked  up an American made, tweed Pro Junior online.  It sounds great 
unless I  play any high runs.  Then it not only sounds the pitch of the harmonica, 
 but also a lower pitch resulting in an octave like effect.  I hate it and  
want it fixed.  The Fender forums I found had no  
information........snip..............

Any  thoughts????  Thanks-


I asked an amp tech for u.  Below is his reply, including an off the  cuff 
opinion re newer Fender amps:
 
 
Ghost tones are  usually indicative of a weak power filter supply, like in a 
very old  amp. Adding filters to the main supply usually takes care of it.   A 
Pro Junior is probably not old enough for that to be the problem unless a  
filter is damaged or disconnected. It could also be the speaker, but that's  
"speakery" sounding and easy enough to isolate. My advice is to stop playing  
through shitty new Fender amps! .........JB
