'62 Princeton

The 1962 Fender Princeton is a vintage tube combo amplifier known for its warm, articulate clean tones and smooth breakup at higher volumes. Featuring a single 10-inch speaker, 12-watt output, and simple controls for volume, tone, and tremolo, it is prized for its lush onboard tremolo effect and dynamic response. Its compact size and classic Fender circuitry make it highly sought after for studio recording and small venue performances, delivering the signature mid-century Fender sound.
