Fender '68 Custom Princeton Reverb construction ?

Please can anyone tell me if the wiring on this amp is 'point to point' hard wired or if the main circuit is on a PCB ?
Or maybe someone has pictures of the chassis etc ? 
I have tried the Fender site but no info there.

Thanks
Fred

    PCB with separate boards for the pots and jacks, and chassis-mounted valve sockets.

    The boards are not through-plated but are good quality, and all the larger components and the wires to the valve sockets are secured with glue.

    The only thing that isn't particularly brilliant are the jumper connectors from the front boards to the main board.

    That's pretty decent actually if the board and traces are solid.
