Fender Princeton amps (non-reverb)

edited February 2014 in Root
I have seen blackface and silverface Princeton non-reverb amps from the 60s and 70s. Any thoughts on them, from Jim or anyone else? I've never heard one.

  • I know they are a lot more affordable.

    I hear they stay clean even when cranked.
  • Great sounding amps. I have a '65 non reverb and an early 70's w/ reverb. The '65 non reverb will stay clean pretty much all the way where the 70's reverb starts to dirty up around 4 or 5. The 70's reverb is also a good deal louder than the non reverb, I believe due to the extra gain stage for the reverb. Volume at 6 or 7 on the non reverb is about the same as 4 or 5 on the reverb.
  • me like reverb...
  • Thanks all, something rare and pretty popped up on the radar but sounds like its of little use for my purposes. Will let it go
