If you're rocking an amp in your studio, what are you using? Also what's your favorite way to record it?

[arianamastersofficial]

Love this amp and this video and all the special guests :) I especially adore that when our son sees something awesome, his reaction is "we have to show mama NOW!' lol.

[RhettShull]

I really dig that amp, sounded great through the ox on our jam!

[mastermachetier]

I have a 10inch Princeton and I personally love how the 10 breaks up

[MattyK-USA]

Great amp! I got mine from Sweetwater (shoutout, Matt Kreager!) in 2017 and fell in love right away with the beautiful cleans, easy breakup, and reverb. Apart from my JP Henry custom (which is naturally on another level entirely), it's my favorite amp. Great with pedals, great with the Ox Box, great micced up.

Yes! The Princeton is such a great recording amp. I've got the 10" version. Great pedal platform.

[RaveSongRecords]

Wonderful! I’ve been looking for a new small Fender for the studio! 😇

[GuyNarnarian]

I have the "Bordeaux" version which is just blood red with a 12" Jensen Alnico (PQ12). I love it for the cleans, great pedal platform, etc. But without an Ox Box or attenuation of some sort, it gets loud in the room at 6. Mine doesn't really break up until 7 or 8. So I either use pedals for dirt, or a long cable and just crank it with the door closed in my office. Basically my point is the amp is pretty loud. I doubt it would work without being mic'd up at a small venue with a drummer, but don't expect it to be cranked to 10 and be able to sit right next to it and have a conversation, that's not happening. At least not with mine.

I've had this this amp for a couple of years now, for use at home, mostly playing jazz, and I love it 😊 It's the only amp I need or want for electric guitar Although it is a special edition, It is available in Canada also through Long & McQuade.

[paqful]

I love my Princeton. Fantastic with the Ox - and plenty loud for anything I'd come up against.

[guyincascade]

I have a ‘77 Fender Vibro Champ 8 watts. Awesome tones. It also sounds good pushing a 12” speaker. I am the original owner. Would never get rid of it.

[danielcrescenzo]

I picked this thing up a few mos ago. It’s nice, I think the C Rex might be on the chopping block though after hearing one with a GA-SC64 in it.

[riffinpeace]

this is by far the best amp demo i ever heard it feels like the amp is in my room amazing work!

[HooksBill]

I've had mine for about a yr. Its a keeper. I do miss my Friedman SmallBox for the Plexi style sounds and want to get another, but this amp is great and I'm always inspired by it. Get some real feels from it.

[normanhenderson]

I built that amp, put adjustable bias and running TAD 6V6 GC’s it’s a beauty

[saywhat]

Got one in 2019. The best. Works for almost any situation/gig. Cool video. Thanks 🙏

We need a tweed and black face head with matching cabinet. They haven’t released anything full size like that for guitars in probably over a decade. They have the super sonic but that’s more of a lower end (even if the price doesn’t necessarily agree) amp. We need a fender custom shop tweed reverb style head at 100-150w with a matching 2x12, 4x12, and maybe even some weird speaker configurations like 1x15 or 4x10. It’s always been my dream to own a fender stack, but I don’t really want a bass amp and I don’t want an amp and I don’t want to deal with vintage stuff. Nor do I want a marshal clone like their old fm stacks. I want a real reverb style half stack in tweed. Hand wired. Custom shop. Plug in a 1972 thinline tele with dual humbuckers and go to town. My dream fender setup. Unless they finally released a hardtail strat with hss or hsh. Or even make a Tom delong inspired 69 hardtail with single humbucker, but more traditional rather than an invader and single volume.
Dang it I started rambling again. Freaking gas.

[ChannelForty]

Oh man that tone! What a great sounding amp!

[laneysommer]

Sounds great! Thanks for the review :)

P.s... all the hits that the great sessions guitarist Louie Shelton done he used a 1969 fender Princeton Reverb and still uses it. Unbelievable the music he has done you should check out his story
