Product Experience I own it

Even though I am a Marshall guy through and through, I have had some experience with all Fender Blackface amps, either renting or owning at one time or another. As I dabble in country and blues, Marshall never really cut it. I was jamming with a few friends off and on using a Marshall DSL5 combo. Much lighter than my DSL20 and 2x12 cab I use at home. The combo just does not work for country. The reverb isn't right. I got the Princeton Tonemaster, the smallest amp as I did not want a lot of volume. What impressed me is it is made for a Strat. Did not tweak the knobs much either with just the reverb on 4, bass on 6 and treble on 3, attenuation at the second level below full, volume on 4. Real easy getting a good tone. I just put a Tube Screamer on top and thats it. Use my volume on the guitar at 7 for rhythm, and 9 or 10 to solo. Abut as basic a rig you could think of. I haven't tried the DI or cab sims but the reverb and vibrato, despite being digital sounds amazing. The entire amp without all the usual tube weight I can lift with two fingers. Why pay two or three times the price for the tube version? This amp is a huge gamechanger for the tube purists out there as this solid state amp approaches 90% the sound quality of the tube version.

Product Experience I own it

I’ve had this amp for 3 weeks and have several hours playing on it.
I’m a fan of these Tone Master amps, Fender really nailed the tone and feel with digital technology.
Here’s what i like:
Power scaling. Doing most of my playing at home, this feature is very important to me because it lets you get a great tone at just about any volume. I play up until 11:00 PM with the kids sleeping upstairs and no problem.
The direct out for recording. Another great feature and it comes with 2 cab / mic simulations and they both sound excellent. You can have the sounds coming out of the speakers or not… super cool feature!
Reverb and Tremolo. My two favourite effects and they sound exceptionally good in this amp. The Tremolo on a Princeton Reverb sounds different than a Deluxe or other Fender BF amps and really comes through.
The Tone and Feel. This is what it all comes down to, if an amp doesn’t sound good or feel good to play then what’s the point!? I’ve played Princeton’s for years and this “digital version” sounds like a really good Princeton Reverb! Different than a Deluxe Reverb, but equally satisfying. It has it’s own thing going on. I have a Blonde Deluxe Reverb Tone Master and have compared them quite a bit since i got the Princeton. Some days i just switch between these 2 amps back and fourth, and whichever one I’m playing at the moment is my favourite. I’m starting to find things I prefer in each amp. But overall i love them both and have no plans of letting go of the Deluxe since i got the Princeton.
The weigh. Yep it’s lighter than the tube version. It’s cool and i have not prob with it, but it’s not a priority for me. I mostly play at home and when i play out, i never found a Princeton heavy. But it is a nice feature. More prevalent in the Deluxe.
Looks. They use mostly the same parts as the tube version, the tolex, the handle, knobs and jacks. But these have a pine cab… just like the old days :)
What Fender could have done better:
A headphone jack!! A headphone jack would have been a nice touch. You can still use headphones from your DAW / Recording interface, so not a big deal.
FYI: i got mine from in the box and the speaker was bright and pokey for the first few hours. Took about a week to smooth out and has continued to do so. Jensen’ s can be bright, but it’s part of the magic, I’m glad this one is smoothing out the more i play it.
Thank you Long and McQuade for the fast shipping and excellent service as usual!

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
