68 Custom Princeton Reverb : Fender 68 Custom Princeton Reverb...amazing

9 years ago

Fender Custom ?68 Princeton Reverb is a great amp.

It have classic sparkly Fender tone.

This amp have very nice sounding reverb and also very nice deep sounding vibrato, again classic Fender tone.

Amp is very loud, but capable for very nice fender clean tone on low volumes. It is very sensitive to guitar volume potentiometers and to different types of pick or finger attack. My amp break on volume of 5 with Les Paul with humbuckers, and maybe on 5.5 when played on telecaster single pickups. On this volumes amp is very loud. (Maybe not loud enough for some giging situations with heavy handed drummers and so)

It is very nice and musical type of break. Very natural!

Good with pedals, but Princeton's natural clean tone is

so good and I didnt try much with pedals

(litle bit with overdrive, ED-1 the compressor - nice results)

Amp is not heavy, lighter then ex. Blues Junior, so is very transportable. (it is too different type of amp to compare sounds, but from my point of view Princeton is much better.) 10" speaker is better then expected.

Low end of spectrum from this princeton is BIG.

In my situation is better with singlecoil pickups,

Princeton can play good with humbuckers just need

litle bit of experimenting with controls on amp and guitar.

I'm very satisfied, better word is I'm impressed with this

good looking silverface amp. 10/10
