1965 Fender Princeton Reverb Amp – Blackface
We present an original 1965 Fender Princeton Reverb Amp – Blackface. Made in Fullerton, California.
This Fender Princeton Reverb amplifier is in great condition. The Blackface Fender Princeton Reverb is one of the crown jewels of mid-’60s combo amps. This classic amp added a tube-driven reverb circuit to the popular Princeton student combo and has been among the most widely used recording amps since its introduction in 1964. The original Fender Oxford speaker has been reconed, so it sounds incredible. All transformers are original, including the reverb unit. The circuit itself is perfect and has been serviced with some new caps, tubes, and resistors, so it runs flawlessly. It has also been updated with a new three-pronged power cable.
The amp is definitely in the “great condition” category in terms of cosmetics. The metal on the chassis and elsewhere still sports its original factory shine with very little patina. The grill cloth is also in great shape, with some minor nicks and dings. The tolex is in exceptionally fine condition, with no significant wear or tear.
To keep it as original as possible, you’ll need a step-down transformer. We have these in stock and they can be purchased through Guitar Hunter.
