Dang! that looks mint. It must still have the new amp smell !

Princetons rule! I've got a pair of PR's ('65 and '66) and a '61 brown face. I'll have to get a group shot of them.

If you see Jim Campilongo these days, his rig with the Little Willies is two blackface Princetons, one with reverb, the other without. He gets an amazing tone with this rig.

Cosmetically, yes - electronically, no.

I bought it back in '93 and it had been pretty heavily Torres modded (Master volume!, 6-way midrange select, Presence control - the trem circuit was completely gone, GONE!). Over the years it has been restored back to the original circuit - the only mod now is a 'Soul Control' in the tremolo footswitch jack (it's a negative feedback control - loosens or tightens up the response, cool mod), and it has a Kendrick Blackframe 10" - GREAT speaker.

Running my '65 Fender Reverb Unit in front of it is a killer combo!
