Historical Context and Positioning in the Lineup
The '65 Princeton Reverb follows the tradition of Fender's mid-60s "blackface" combos, renowned for their crystalline cleans and musicality as the amp begins to compress. This modern version captures the classic Fender spirit and aesthetics, with meticulous craftsmanship and component choices aimed at authentic vintage tone.
Who This Amp Is For
This combo is perfect for guitarists seeking a timeless Fender sound without moving to a more powerful amp. It suits both discerning amateurs and professionals: home playing (great response at low volume), studio (easy recording, superb reverb), and stage (12W ideal for clubs, especially with mic reinforcement). It excels in blues, surf, country, indie, pop, funk, and vintage rock, and loves pedals (overdrive, fuzz, boost, delay).

A fantastic amp for the home, even at low volume (2) it sounds wonderful, round, warm, reacts very well to pick sounds, wonderful treble and amazing bass for a 10\â HP. A bit of breath on the reverb above 3, reverb that is fantastic with incredible depth, remarkable tremolo too. (I think it's better than the deluxe reverb vibrato channel).
Les Paul, Stratocaster, Telecaster everything works great on this amp, I just use a TS9 as an effect for a light overdrive, and it's perfect.
Last point to highlight, not too much noise for a vintage amp.
Fast shipping from Woodbrass, great service.Automatically translated

Excellent amp, a very warm, round and brilliant vintage sound... All with spring reverb and vibrato... Love it!!!
Perfect for recording and rehearsals or even small rooms...
However, it is still only moderately powerful, so deluxe reverb would be more appropriate if you want to have a more comfortable amp for playing with a drummer and performing on stage.Automatically translated

Is the Fender '65 Princeton Reverb suitable for home and small stage use?
With its 12 W and two 6V6 power tubes, this combo delivers a smooth response at low volume. Its dimensions of 406 x 241 x 505 mm make it easy to use at home or in the studio. On club stages, it can be mic'd to integrate into a stage setup.

The 4AB3C1B spring reverb and the tremolo are controlled with the included vintage 2-button footswitch, dedicated to reverb and vibrato.
Can effect pedals be used with this amplifier?
The absence of an effects loop means pedals must be connected at the front panel, before the 6.35 mm jack input. Both inputs are available, including input 2 which is attenuated by -6 dB.
Can an external speaker cabinet be connected to this combo?
Two 6.35 mm speaker outputs are wired in parallel for the internal speaker and an external cabinet. The rated impedance is 8 ohms.
What speaker is fitted in the Princeton Reverb?
