Front Panel
The legendary Fender Princeton® Reverb Amp of the 1960s
was small, light, and moderately powered. Though intended
for practice situations, the Princeton was capable of big tube
tone, and Fender’s world-class Reverb and Vibrato effects
were the icing on the cake. From its inception ‘til today,
countless guitarists have chosen it as their go-to studio amp,
crafting signature sounds with a stomp box or two feeding a
simple miked-up Princeton.
Today, original Princeton Reverb amps are prized collectibles,
and becoming harder to find. The new ’65 Princeton® Reverb
Amp offers today’s players all of the great tone and dynamics
of the original…in an affordable, roadworthy reissue. The
robust 15-Watt platform is a wise choice for creating tube
tone in a small space, and even provides enough output for
small gigs and rehearsals.
