A true vintage version of the "Stapleton" Princeton

1962 Fender 6G2 Princeton just into the shop!

It's been a little while since we've had a old brown Princeton in the shop, and this one comes to us with one of the cooler vintage amp modifications you're likely to encounter.

A well-done baffle swap was executed on this mid '62 build, incorporating a 12" speaker into the mix. It brings a certain fullness and depth to the Princeton sound, especially helpful given this particular circuit's bit of British flavor. It still has its original transformers, and the cabinet/tolex is clean. A newly installed leather handle ensures confidence in handling as well.

**Please Note: All vintage amplifiers - regardless of service history - contain electronic components that will eventually require replacement or repair. This is often unpredictable and should be expected as a vintage amplifier owner. We are not responsible for additional service upon receipt. We also do not guarantee tube life.**
Condition: Vintage. Fully inspected and set up by TME staff before it ships or leaves the showroom.
