thejay Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 The princeton came the other day but the bird arrived today. I have wanted a fender amp for a long time, sat and played the princeton in a local shop for an hr one day, I knew that was the amp after the first notes....an hr later I was figuring how to explain it to me wife :) firebird is just too cool, lighter than my SGs! Sounds absolutely wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfpup Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Nice. I need to hear the new Princeton '65 reissue. I have two already, but they are old ones. Interested in how the newer one compares. There's also a new SF reissue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobF_ Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Nice guit & amp - Congrats 2-ya. I convinced myself I want a Princeton Recording amp after they were discontinued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rct Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 NICE. BOTH. I have a Princetone Recording Amp. It was a birthday gift from The Mrs. I used to have a handful of amps for gigging. They are all gone now, and I only have the Princeton and a cabinet. I love that thing. rct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejay Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 I actually wanted the Princeton for more recording than anything else and it sounds ridiculously good. I haven't tried to record it yet, really enjoy the combo of both together. They sound great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Searcy Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Very nice. I wouldn't mind having a Princeton myself someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimi Mac Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Very nice. I wouldn't mind having a Princeton myself someday. That name makes me pause today due to the solid-state Princetons of the 1980's... They were junk! Nutless lemons with inferior speakers! I suffered with one for years because it was all I could afford and the shop I bought it from refused to do anything about the problems I had with it and said it was normal... I have a hard time bringing myself to even look at an amp with the name Princeton on it because of that! I'll stick with a Bassman reissue and a couple pedals... (not that I have one yet :)) Nice axe & I bet those Princetons sound a whole lot better than the solid state duds from the 80's!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
