1964 Fender Princeton Reverb Vintage Pre-CBS Tube Amp 1×10 with Oxford 10J4, Ftsw
Up for sale, a 1964 Fender Princeton Reverb in excellent condition and in perfect working order. From the very first year of production, this Pre-CBS Blackface Princeton Reverb is freshly serviced, with introductory cosmetics including the Fender Elec Inst Co. Faceplate and no-logo cabinet. The perfect amplifier for small club gigs and studio sessions, the Princeton Reverb is a Fender amp that delivers both well-balanced, sparkling cleans and smooth, harmonic rich overdrive when you dime it out. The Reverb is extremely lush and the Tremolo has a nice pulse with a wide range of speeds. Freshly serviced by our in-house techs here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar to balance originality and functionality, the amp features a genuine vintage Schumacher-made Princeton Reverb output transformer with the correct Fender part numbers, dating to the 2nd week of’65. The power transformer is a Mercury Tone Clone, perfectly replicating the response of the original design, and also the transformer company of choice for Fender’s top-tier Custom Shop builds. The power supply can cap and smaller electrolytics are newer components to ensure that the amp is operating as per factory spec, and a modern three-prong power cable has been installed as well. The amp boasts original CTS pots with visible date codes from the 47th week of’64, and the famed blue molded Ajax tone caps which are an essential part of the Blackface tone. The power tubes are a pair of brand new matched Electro Harmonix 6V6s, the GZ34 rectifier is a vintage USA-made valve, and the preamp is loaded with mostly vintage valves as well from the likes of RCA and General Electric. The speaker is an era correct Oxford 10J4 with a blue foil Fender label on the ceramic magnet and a recent recone. The tube chart is intact, noting Production Run #2, complete with an “NL” date stamp which translates to December of’64. The original smooth black tolex and silver sparkle grillcloth are intact, exhibiting light edge wear with a couple bald bottom corners on the cabinet and the one minor snag on the lower edge of the grillcloth. All of the original hardware is present as well including the chassis straps, handle caps and sphinx glides. The original two-button footswitch is included.
