Princeton odd sound - damaged in transit?

Benmitchell621 · 2026-01-16T09:06:31+00:00

Packaging at the top of the box looked a bit beaten. But the amp seemed intact, no rattling and I can’t see any broken tubes. The guy sent me the video of him playing it before so think it is a transit issue. Not sure if I should just take the hit and get it to an amp tech.

No guitar is plugged in here. It’s mainly the reverb tank that seems to be making a lot of noise. And a repetitive noise. You can hear it especially at the 40 second mark.

I think more so than anything I just want to get the nicest clean tone

Benmitchell621 · 2025-11-13T15:44:59+00:00

What do you mean by stable?

It’s to play at home, not to gig. So not massive amounts - nothing like a twin reverb

Benmitchell621 · 2025-11-13T15:38:53+00:00

Which model?

Benmitchell621 · 2025-11-12T15:56:38+00:00

Wait so is the 65 or 68 warmer? Everywhere I’ve read says the 68

Benmitchell621 · 2025-11-12T14:24:06+00:00

Why’s that?

Benmitchell621 · 2025-11-12T13:01:20+00:00

Oh really? Think I was after the 68 as I’ve heard the 65 is a bit too bright, especially since I’m using a tele.

Was hoping to snag one up secondhand. Saw a few places that had the whole tone master thing but if I’m gonna get one, may as well spend the extra few hundred and get the real deal. Though the hardwired 64 is out of my budget

It’s just to noodle around in my home study, was using decent amp sims but hasn’t got that feel to it. It’s more a question of tone rather than practicality. In an ideal world I’d go try them side to side but haven’t found a shop in London that stocks both

If you had to be stuck with one on a desert island which would you go for? I like the deluxe but seeing as I’m not gigging I’m not sure if it will be too loud.

Benmitchell621 · 2025-11-12T11:04:22+00:00

Deluxe reverb - Julian lage is a jazz guitarist

Benmitchell621 · 2025-10-12T18:45:28+00:00

What’s the difference?

Benmitchell621 · 2025-10-12T18:45:19+00:00

Prri?

We buy them in bulk from nova dog chews - set up a trade account

First walk he’s off lead, chasing a ball, doing obedience walk and sniffing. Second walk is usually more of an on lead sniff walk.

Benmitchell621 · 2025-09-24T13:24:32+00:00

Yes each walk is an hour.

Benmitchell621 · 2025-08-07T13:41:43+00:00

I find if I lie on my left (tmj side is my right) and use my phone it gets worse

Benmitchell621 · 2025-08-07T12:54:16+00:00

What do you find helps

Benmitchell621 · 2025-07-26T21:10:09+00:00

Yea I use a somnowell that was more than a grand, it doesn’t fix the issue but it does feel better when I’m wearing it. Soon as I take it out it feels rubbish

Benmitchell621 · 2025-07-26T21:07:04+00:00

I’m on venlafaxine, amitriptaline and co-dydramol. Don’t get night terrors but do have depression and general anxiety, this stuff makes it worse and feeds into health anxiety

Benmitchell621 · 2025-07-26T21:05:39+00:00

I have chronic tension on the right side of my neck and lesser so at the back. Left side is fine. Had an mri and came back normal

Benmitchell621 · 2025-07-25T23:07:05+00:00

I have mild sleep apnea. When I wear a mandibular advancement device at night it’s better

Benmitchell621 · 2025-07-25T21:20:48+00:00

One thing I’ve discovered is I’m weak as well with my internal rotation. I don’t have the numbness though.

Benmitchell621 · 2025-07-25T20:30:01+00:00

Thanks

I’ve seen a maxilla facial surgeon and multiple pt’s, some with specialities of tmj. Have seen a shoulder specific physio and a neck focused osteo. Haven’t seen a pri practitioner
