What kind of guitar/pickups are you using here? I like the tone. I've got a '51 tv-front Pro that I love. People are just now coming around to these early tweeds. The one you've got here looks and sounds really nice. Great job!
Stunning amplifier. I'm building one of these as a project at the moment, I love 40s and early 50s era fenders....or any tube amp using Octal pre-amp tubes. it's not everyones thing....But it's definetly mine.
Thank you for posting the only 5B2 Princeton video I can find on the web!
sounds really nice-mellow and crisp. how much did you pay for that if i may ask, i have no idea what they're worth but more than blackface fenders i bet
Actually less than any blackfaces bigger than a vibro champ, since this is like a tweed champ. Under a thousand bucks - they make for great recording amps too!
please record this thing cranked. usually i hate youtube videos recorded on cameras and shit but even through that this amp sounds amazing. i bet it sounds incredible being pushed
how much do these go for? a 1954 one to be exact?

@dallasblues74 it's a '76 Les Paul Custom, probably has late T-Tops in it. Pretty clean for a Paul!

@Jahnli Wow! That is definitely cleaner than I would've expected from a Les Paul. Great tone!

@Jahnli It is very clean for a Les Paul. I bet my Telecaster would sound like glass through this thing, love it

Nice amp, I like these better than the later 12a*7 pre amp models, those early tubes IMHO far outway the others in tone,
Great clip thanks

Those 'symphonic harmonics' sound so good. I'm glad you pointed them out. Nice :)

Amp - Tone at 1 o'clock, Vol at noon.
Les Paul - middle position, everything cranked.

this would sound better if you hadn't put brand new strings on your guitar

The crappy onboard mic on my point and shoot camera doesn't help either. It's much deeper and richer in person.
