Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Good

It seems sometimes that Fender's non-reverb Princeton Amp gets short shrift when compared to its Princeton Reverb cousin. Not having reverb can be a deal breaker for some and, let's face it, Fender's spring reverb is pretty spectacular, but give it a chance and the non-reverb Princeton will win you over for sure. To start with, it's got lots of clean headroom, which means you can turn it up a lot more before it starts breaking up and the warm, chimey clean tones that this thing can produce are the stuff of legend. I fell in love with the tremolo circuit, too, it produces some of the deepest, most hypnotic sounds I've heard. Let this vintage beauty into your heart and you won't regret it!
