Fender Blackface Princeton Amp (clone)

Next


AA964 Front


Contrary to popular belief, the BF Princeton Amp is not the same as a Princeton Reverb without the reverb. The non-reverb model lacks one gain stage in the preamp as compared with the PR. That makes this amp VERY low gain. Clean all the way to 10. The coolest driven tones are when cranked, or when pushed with some sort of boost/overdrive. I built this example into a real Blues Junior cabinet with a custom chassis. Deluxe Reverb style iron, a few minor tweaks, and the JBL is the icing on the cake.
