Description

The Silverface-era Princeton Non-Reverb is a no-frills amp that delivers exceptional tone at a fraction of the cost of its Blackface counterparts. With one less gain stage due to the absence of reverb recovery, this model offers increased headroom and may even push out a bit more power, depending on the individual amp. The Non-Reverb Princeton has been a longtime favorite of Mike Campbell from Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, known for its pure, clean tone and natural compression when cranked.

This particular example is in superb condition and carries a unique history, having once belonged to legendary instrumentalist Chris Scruggs. It remains 99% original, with the only change being a replaced bias capacitor.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
