Manufacturer's Description for Fender Princeton Recording Guitar Combo Amplifier (20 Watts, 1x10 in.)

The Fender Princeton Reverb Amp of the 1960s, though small, light and moderately powerful, produced giant tube tone. In the '70s and beyond, it earned a rep as the quintessential studio recording amp, and original Princeton Reverb amps are highly sought after in today's vintage market as collectibles and as a wise choice for creating great tube tone in a small space.

Fender's new Princeton Recording Amp offers all of the great tone and dynamics of the original, plus several modern studio-friendly features. Its all-tube preamp, power amp and reverb circuitry is based on the classic '65 Princeton Reverb, and, with 20 watts and a 10 in. Jensen speaker, it provides spanking vintage tone and enough output for small gigs and rehearsals. The trans-impedance power attenuator lets you crank up the amp for full output tube overdrive and set the speaker volume as low as you want (even silent for headphone use)!

Other features include 2 classic onboard 'stomp box' effects (overdrive and compression), genuine tube-driven Fender spring reverb by Accutronics, headphone output, speaker emulated line output with level control and ground lift, speaker output jack (internal speaker may be disconnected for use with other 8-ohm enclosures, professional FX loop and 4-button footswitch.

Features:
All tube preamp, power amp, and Reverb circuitry based on classic 1965 Princeton Reverb amp

Trans-Impedance Power Attenuator allows players to crank up the amp for full output tube overdrive; then set the volume of the speaker as low as desired-even SILENT for headphone use! Unlike other attenuators, the lively feel and "bounce back" dynamics of the speaker are reflected back to the tube amp and the player's hands. This exclusive circuit may be completely bypassed when not needed.

2 "stomp box" effects, which can be completely disengaged from the signal path as desired: 3-knob Overdrive, based on traditional stomp box tones, and 2-knob Compressor, based on classic recording-friendly units, adds sustain

Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (18 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "Instant classic!"
Sound: Doesn't get any better in a small pro-recording amp! Does exactly what it's designed to do. Great tube distortion at extremely low volume levels. Ability to use headphones is a plus in situations where noise levels are a concern. Also, the best vinage, clean sound W/reverb I have ever heard from any amp in any class. This product is an instant classic! Value: Expensive, but worth it!

"Versatility, ease of use, and awesome ease of use for an affordable price."
Sound: I love the sound of this amp. I play a range of styles from rock to blues and contemporary Christian music. I love the natural tube distortion you can get with this amp. The compression is awesome feature and saves on a stomp box. The only reason i didn't rate it a ten is because I liked the clean sound on a Fender Tweed Deluxe ($1,800.00 and no distortion) and I thought that the Mesa Lonestar (also $1,799) Special had more versatility as far as distortion sounds go. Feature: I think that it gives more bang for the buck than other amps. The compressor and overdrive features are great. The reverb is classic. I also appreciate the power attenuator which allows you to achieve great sounds at surprisingly low volumes. Ease of Use: You can achieve awesome cleans to vintage Hendrix with the twist of a few knobs. Pro effects loop. Outrageously easy to get great sound. Quality: Looks great, and has a quality feel. Value: Generally, I see this amp selling for about $1,000. This is a superb value. I was comparing it to amps that sell for $1,800. I think this amp is a killer value. I would not only use it in the studio. I would mike it out and gig with it. Manufacturer Support: Never had to deal with them. The Wow Factor: I want it for the awesome sounds you can get with ease. Overall: I would be satisfied owing this amp for many years to come.
Style of Music: Rock
