WTB: Fender 65 or 68 Princeton

After shifting the blues jr I'm torn between a tweed deluxe and a princeton so, if anyone has one for a decent price let me know

The 'recording' bit puts me off, I borrowed an '65 fsr one off a friend for some gigs over the weekend and its definitely the one..

Is it not the same amp if you don't use the compressor/drive/attenuator?

There's a brown one on here for £690

Have a look at the '68 too. Earlier break up, a bit louder, and a blue power lamp. Its worth it just for the blue lamp.

Hmm, yes, '68 looks great, updated!

Blue Flowers. 3 months old. As new and it has a blue light....£675

I've got a 68. Put a higher efficiency speaker in and it's the bollocks. Best recording and gigging amp I've ever played

I'm selling mine with a view to getting a Carr Sportsman:

I think I'm leaning towards the 68 actually guys, the '65 seems to be going for 2nd hand deluxe reverb prices, dunno if people are just being optimistic but I wanted to spend near 500 as possible...
