1955 Fender Tweed 5E2 Princeton Owner and Wonderful !!!

This video features the restoration of a beautiful old one-owner 1955 Fender 5E2 Princeton tweed amplifier. Due to its complete originality, I carefully concealed each new component within the outer container of the original components, resulting in a complete overhaul that still looks exactly as it did before the work was done. We will then perform a detailed audio demonstration of the amp’s two very different inputs (1 & 2) with single-coils and pickups and bridge only. The Part 2 video will be a review of the evolution of single-ended Princeton amps from the first wooden-cased 1946 model up to the final 5F2-A narrow-panel version offered from 1957-1960. CORRECTION: The impedance of Input No. 2 is actually 136K, not 1136K. Sorry.
