The guitarist with an eye and ear for late-'60s Fender silver panel style will love the '68 Custom Princeton Reverb, which honors the classic look and great sound of that era's amps. Small, light and moderately powered, longtime recording and gigging favorite the Princeton Reverb received a fresh new face in 1968—a silver-and-turquoise front panel with aluminum grille cloth trim, with tone, reverb and tremolo that was still pure Fender. The '68 Custom Princeton Reverb also has modified tone circuitry for greater tonal flexibility with pedals and reduced negative feedback for greater touch sensitivity and quicker overdrive onset.

Overview:

Guitarists looking for that authentic Fender tone in a portable form and without the risk of investing in a vintage amp are going to love the Custom Princeton Reverb! It's been designed to bring the all tube tone to the guitarist that requires the reliability of a modern amp, without any compromise to that authentic sound!

The Custom Princeton features the classic Fender tube driven reverb with a twist. The reverb circuit has been modded to minimise the risk of feedback and to offer more tonal flexibility when used with pedals.

The amp features the old school tube-biased tremolo circuit. The magic being this amps vibrato is that it modulates the power tubes, meaning the tremolo ducks out of the way when you strum hard, then gradually comes in as your notes sustain. It's one of the best tremolos we've heard as it really puts the focus on your playing.
