WTB: Vintage Tweed Princeton

An extremely long shot but if you happen to have one and want to shift it - let's talk! After a 5F2A circuit.

Hi mate, Vintage Guitar Boutique have one. And it is AMAZING.

Thank for the heads up. I did play that one a while ago - sounds great but too much money for the condition it is in.

I have a 1957 if that might be of interest?

@surfguy13 OOC what size speaker does the 57 have? 

surfguy13

Hi

All tweed princetons had 8" speakers, normally Oxfords.  I've had three 50s Princetons over the years and the original speakers are not great with a tendency to sound a little bee in a bottle when driving.  The standard replacement for tweed Princetons is a Weber Signature 8 which is what I have in mine.  This is a photo:

The chassis is all original as you can see bar the mains lead which is a good idea.  The lead was installed by John Chambers.
