1964 Fender Princeton Amp

Post by mellowlogic »

Hi Guys,

I got this amp a couple of months ago, but I haven't gotten around to posting any pics. They are a bit blurry, I have a nice camera but a terribly unsteady hand haha.

I love the sound. It's small enough that I can crank it to 10 in my apartment and control the natural drive with my guitar volume. The guy I bought it from included the original blown speaker, which I intend to get re-coned, as well as this replacement one that's in there now. I have no idea what kind of speaker is in there at the moment, it sounds good to me though. It's got some weird old tubes in there as well, and I'll be looking for replacements soon. Also, it still has the 2-prong plug, which I intend to get swapped out for a grounded one as soon as possible. Anyways, here's the pics:

I bet that sounds lovely. I love my PRRI, but am sure that's something else.

I just got it for my apartment, and perhaps recording at some point. It's really fantastic. These amps don't really seem to command the value that the princeton reverbs do, so it was pretty affordable at 600 bucks.
