1958 Fender Princeton
The classic tweed 5F2-A Princeton that was built between 1957 and 1960. The 5F2-A features a 12AX7 pre-amp tube, a single 6V6 power tube and 5Y3 rectifier, volume and tone controls, an 8” Alnico speaker and a cabinet that’s significantly bigger than that of a Champ, which is the Princeton’s closest sibling.
This is a wonderful sounding small amp that’s recently been safetied and serviced. Apart from a newer handle, the amp was previously never serviced and the circuitry hasn’t been modified apart from new filter caps, new fuse wiring, and grounded AC cord. The original parts are included with the amp. Original speaker, tweed, and grill cloth. The upper rear panel has been modified as the photos show.
A fabulous sounding tweed Princeton.
