Seller's description

The Vintage Sound Vintage 20 is a slightly stepped up version of the Vintage 15. Like the Vintage 15, it's essentially an all hand-wired, all USA made, super-modified Fender Princeton Reverb. It's based on the "blackface" Fender Princeton Reverb (AA1164) used from 1964-1967, but with several major and significant upgrades (read more below). The Vintage 20 has a considerable amount of warm, clean headroom, and noticeably more than a typical blackface Princeton Reverb.  It will easily hold it's own again any Deluxe Reverb out there. Players from all genres LOVE this amp - from Blues, to Country, to Rock! Tell Us About the Upgrades! 1)  The most obvious difference is the 12" speaker upgrade. The Princeton Reverb came with a 10" stock speaker, and many people modded them to replace the 10" baffle with a 12" so they could get a standard sized speaker in there. (more on the speaker we chose below) 2)  The reverb circuit is vastly upgraded.  The stock reverb on a Princeton was a small 9" pan spring reverb.  The Vintage 20 uses a large 17" spring reverb pan that's the same size as the one used in the Twin Reverb!  The reverb circuit also includes a very nifty reverb dwell control on the rear of the chassis for varying the decay time. 3)  A "MIDDLE" tone control has been added that Princeton Reverb amps didn't have.  This addition does nothing to hurt the integrity of the circuit or tone. The original Fender circuit actually had a "fixed mid" that was set permanently at 6.8k. Vintage Sound removed this resistor from the circuit and replaced it with a much more versatile 10k pot. You now have the ability to adjust this frequency range without compromising the original tone. If you want it to sound precisely like a blackface Princeton Reverb, just turn the port to around one o'clock on the dial and you're there. You want to scoop the mids a touch, pull back. Warm the tone a bit, turn up. 4)  The addition of a Standby Switch.  The original Princeton Reverb didn't have one
