Fender Princeton 5F2-A build
Fender Princeton 5F2-A (1957–1960) isn’t just a footnote in guitar history; it’s a cult classic. Often mistaken for its simpler sibling, the Champ 5F1, the 5F2-A Princeton carved its own path with refined circuitry, richer tonal control, and a voice that became a studio legend. Let’s set the record straight: while both share a 3–5W Class A single-ended DNA, the Princeton 5F2-A is the Champ’s more sophisticated cousin, packing a game-changing tone control, negative feedback loop, and improved power filtering for punchier, articulate gri. Great little Harp Amp.
