Vintage Tube Amp

Up for sale, a 1974 Fender Princeton in exceptional, collector-grade condition and in perfect working order. Clean, complete, and original, this vintage Silverface Fender comes complete with fresh 6V6 power tubes and vintage RCA-branded valves in the preamp. Unlike its brother the Princeton Reverb, this non-reverb Princeton has much more clean headroom, as the lack of the reverb effect introduces less gain into the circuit, allowing the amp to be clearer and punchier, with a sound that has sparkle and chime indicative of the Blackface line and perfect for recording situations. The controls are simple and intuitive, and the bias based tremolo circuit has a nice even pulse with a wide range of available speeds. The circuit is 100% original aside from a new filter can cap, bypass caps, and three-prong power cable, with stock transformers and blue molded tone caps in the preamp. The power tubes are a fresh pair of 6V6s from Electro Harmonix, and a small trim pot has been bridged over the bias capacitor, allowing much finer tweaking of the bias. The original transformers were manufactured by Schumacher (Fender’s primary transformer supplier in this era), with an output transformer that dates to the 34th week of 1974, and a power transformer that dates to the 32nd week of the same year. The tube chart is completely intact with crisp corners and only light aging. The speaker is the original Oxford 10J4 with the stock wiring harness with the Fender “F” on the 1/4 plug. The hardware on the amp is completely original and the faceplate is practically sparkling, with five stock witch hat knobs and flawless blue silkscreen text. The stock black tolex and silver sparkle grill are present and exceedingly clean. This amp has clearly been well cared for since new, and delivers a sound worthy of the Fender name! The original schematic and accompanying envelope is included. Check out our shop “Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar, ” and please let us know if we can answer any questions!
