The Fender Princeton Reverb is a guitar amplifier combo, essentially a Princeton with built-in reverb and vibrato. The 12 Watt Blackface version was introduced in 1964 and available until 1967, in 1968 it was replaced by theSilverface version with a drip edge around the grill cloth (added and removed in 1969) and a change in circuitry. The rectifier was changed from a 5ar4 to a 5u4gb during the Silverface years along with a change in bias resistor value, a "boost" pull switch to the volume control pot was added in 1977. In 1980-81 the Silverface version was cosmetically changed back to the Blackface. It was discontinued in 1981. Specifications (Princeton Reverb, 1964–81)
