68 Custom Princeton Reverb : Very bad cab rattles and vibration.
The amp sounded good. I have a 65 reissue Princeton and it sounds quite different. The reverb is a bit more mellow and the tremolo is more intense. The tremolo is very good.
The problem is that the amp rattles and vibrates as soon as it is turned above 2 which is not loud at all. It appeared to be coming from the front baffle (which i've heard can often happen with Princeton's). I think the aluminium drip edge grill trim makes the rattle worse. Turning up the bass also made the rattle/vibration worse.
The reverb was also loose when i received it and i had to secure it properly. This caused the reverb to start feeding back even when it was at a low level.
A good sounding amp but the build quality is not acceptable for the price. There needs to be better quality control with these amps.
