1967 Fender Princeton Reverb

1967 Fender Princeton Reverb Description

The Fender Princeton Reverb is the smallest of the blackface/silverface Fender amps with both tremolo and reverb effects (distinguishing it from the regular Princeton). With a 10 inch 8 Ohm Jenson speaker, the amp runs at around 12-15 watts, making it perfect for small to medium sized club work and especially studio recording. It delivers truly classic Fender tones with punchy responsive lows and wonderful ‘chiming’ clean sounds. Plug in a Strat or a Telecaster and you’ll immediately see what all the fuss is about with these amps.

There is a real warmth and resonance to the sound with this amplifier the second you plug in to it. The spring reverb and vibrato effects are available via the original footswitch and both add real body and depth to the amplifier’s natural tone without masking your guitar’s own sonic characteristics. In our opinion, the vibrato effect matches anything that is available in pedal form and the reverb effect is classic 60’s Fender tone-heaven.

This amplifier dates from the final year of the original blackface production in 1967 before it was replaced with a silverface model and is in outstanding condition throughout with minimal wear. You will need a step-down transformer to operate this amplifier in the UK as it comes with a 3-core US power supply.

The Princeton Reverb also works very well with your favourite overdrive pedals put in front of it and we found it equally responsive for blues, rock and even surf guitar styles. If you want truly classic Fender tones that will fit a variety of guitar styles then look no further than the Princeton Reverb.
