The Princeton is a good amp off the showroom floor, but like all mass-produced amp manufacturers run by Accountants, savings had to be made in both areas of sound and reliability. The owner of this amp loves his Princeton and authorized me to toss out those cost-saving measures and make this amp what it should have been.
You don’t have to own a Princeton Reverb Reissue to benefit from this two-part video. If you have Deluxe Reverb Reissue, I suggest you watch both parts all the way through. Same for any of the Hot Rod series.
As usual, I will answer (almost) every genuine question or comment. As usual, I will ignore any comments by trolls.
Please do me a favour by giving both videos a LIKE and consider SUBSCRIBING if you benefit from the effort I put into the recording and editing of these videos.
Thank you
Chris
