[astroboirap]

wanky blues playing

[xchump]

great playing and awesome sounds man!

[UKToneKing]

is it like the vac 23 amp, it uses light bulb technology or some thing, which is better than an ittunator ?

[the9ingredients]

Holy shit... now that is some seriously good playing.

[guitar62751]

Nice sounding amp.

[TheSoloAsylum]

@HOMEOFTONE English........learn to use it, you make my point for me

[TheSoloAsylum]

@HOMEOFTONE if you are going to insult people you should try to at least spell correctly. Also I don't see anyone here asking you to judge this guys talent. Have a great day.......

[SuckedInM8]

Man. Finally someone who played something else than "mainstream" What I try to say is, this was chill listening to and you are a good guitarist

[Mr78130]

learn grammar you shithead

[GerritGuitar]

sounds very nice....could be an option for playing at home too....will look for, thx!

[GibsonRocks12]

What is up with the Lights?

[29396]

doesn't higher wattage mean more headroom?

[ohwell121]

oh crap 2:23

not nice OD

will not be buying htis, thought about it.

[TheFunkify]

not nice OD? You're kidding, right? It's a beautiful sound for country or blues. Buy whatever you want, but man I think your computer speakers must not be so good or you're just not into the kinds of music this amp is for. I just wish this was within my price range. It's $2.5K in Australia.

[ohwell121]

dont play country or blues, not old school blues anyway, im more into vox.

it has nice breakup but..i dont like the ball sound

sounds like it'd kick your ears off.

yes personal opion =)

[TheFunkify]

Fair enough, I like Vox too. Bought an AC15 which was affordable and has great cleans. If you're from the US, try out a Dr Z too. Bit like a boutique Vox. Seeya.

[edgarsterling]

You play some very beautiful music my friend.

[Bleadbelly1]

Anyone use one of these?

Like to hear your comment

[dbaerg]

I have one it sounds amazing, even compared to amps like a VOX AC15 or a other bigger Fender Amps. Its expensive, but I record a lot and I use it for leading worship at church, so its the perfect size and the power attenuator is amazing. I don't use the compressor much so no comment there, the over drive sounds great, as you can hear in the video, and there's a cone/tube imitating line out on the back that actually sounds surprisingly good. not quite as good as the amp. but grat! hope this helps

[dbaerg]

*great.

Also, I wouldn't recommend this amp if you're playing loud with a rock band or something. It sounds great mic'd up, and its actually a lot louder than people give it credit for, but not like ... fill up a big concert hall loud. It fills up any club though.

[Bleadbelly1]

Thanks for being so helpful

[hurtra]

NOT LOUD ENOUGH FOR BAND

[BucksStudent]

Not true.

[thechemicalconscious]

agreed. for those who don't know(and that's probably a lot of you), in order to get twice the volume, you have to multiply the watts by 10. so a 10watt amp is half as loud as a 100watt amp. a 15 watt amp is half as loud as a 150watt amp. NOBODY needs anywhere close to 100 watts live. you're just going to mic it at that point anyways. with the princeton's power attenuator you can get cranked tones at low volumes and then mic it.

[kb1g]

Nope. Completely wrong. A doubling of power makes a perceptible difference in volume. POint of diminishing returns after a while. I have this amp and love it. Want a Lonestar special though.

[thechemicalconscious]

notice I didn't say there was absolutely NO difference. but it is no secret that the human ear's perception of volume is logarithmic, not linear. look it up if you like. I'm glad you enjoy your amp =)

[kb1g]

Doubling power offers a perceptible difference, not times 10. 40 watt amps are only a little louder

[hello00world]

wow hes great

[wapzilla]

Fender make a lot of amps, but I reckon this one is the pick of the bunch!!!

[Busterdawg4400]

This and the '57 Twin.

[Alexizephyrmage9]

do you really like mason jennings?...you look like him.

[cream68]

what tha hell does a single chord sound like on this thang???????

[christrealized]

Excellent Demo.... Great tone and great playing..!

I love that amp..!

[Bobkieblat]

Which WRHB Fender pickups are in the guitar? Is that a MIM re-issue with the Alnico PUPS or the CIJ Ceramics. Guessing those are no ceramic PUPS.

Thanks

[jedirkeds]

mines a made in mexico, sounds the same as his so im guessing he has an MIM too.

[mangydangle]

loud enough to gig?

[BallewsMusic]

maybe in a smaller room, but with a full band it'd be tough to hang without it being mic'd

[BucksStudent]

Most bands, with a brain, would have a PA system, or play a gig where the venue had one. I know you all like to crank your Marshall stacks up, but I can do a full show with a Fender Mini Twin if I have a PA.

[jedirkeds]

how much did this amp cost you? 3 to 400.00?

[BucksStudent]

Fender Princetons are expensive. Over 1000 bucks.

[Itsnotjustahobby]

ya last i checked they were about $1,400.00 dollars......ya expensive

[BucksStudent]

That's due to the Fender price hike.

[erikchavez831]

theres one on craigslist for 100$...maybe i should buy it...

[Itsnotjustahobby]

make shure its works?

[JxEngel]

@mangydangle 15 watt tube amp is more then enough to gig with. I suppose if you play in a deathmetal or a shitty band(whats the difference right?) where everyone is fighting for volume then it could be tough. But 15w tube will blow away 50w of transisters anyday.

[jehabana]

really killer

[BucksStudent]

Very cool man. Kevin, you're playing is as good as it always is and will be. I wasn't enthralled by the Princeton, mostly due to the fact that it was like any other Fender, and the reverb was on.

[shakey64]

nice!! love the amp sound..as well as the Tele thinline.

[revriley]

i likey!!

[caribou71]

I've ordered it...

Hope it sounds !
