Two of Fender’s most popular tube amps ever: which one would you buy?
Life too short for long YouTube videos? Please see the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below.
Welcome to the show! We can’t believe it’s taken us quite this long to make this video, but y’know, history is a long time and in paleontological terms we got to it pretty quick.
Erm, undoubtedly two of Fenders best ever small/medium amps in this case in 2021 reissue format. Nothing special, no hand wireds, no special editions - we just plug a bunch of guitars in, use some basic pedals and ask, eventually, which one would you buy?
Please enjoy the episode!
Disclosure info: We bought the ’65 Deluxe Reverb from Fender on an artist discount in 2020. The Princeton is on loan from Fender, and hopefully they will offer us an artist discount on this too!
