I found a Fender Princeton from 1958(apparently all original, -new tubes though).
I live in Denmark, and good vintage gear is rare around here.

It's in pretty good condition, and sounds AMAZING!!!!

Anyone out there who knows how much these amps are usualy sold for? both in Europe and in the US?

Ebay will give you a rough idea of what it'll go for, but it's really worth more than the ebay price.

Hi
I have just bought a 1959 Princeton all original including the tubes for £1043GB but I bought from the USA so will have import tax to pay. In the UK it should be worth about £2000GB due to the lack of supply. Yours should be worth a similar amount but it does depend on the extrnal condition of the tweed. If it is not tatty then this should be about right
Cheers
Nick

I've seen narrow-panel 5F2 tweeds here in "the colonies" commanding anywhere from $1500 to $3000 (USD), contingent upon the cosmetic condition and component originality.

No matter what it's worth in money,it's worth way more in that it's a piece of American musical history....just imagine where it's been and who might have played through it since 1958.
Enjoy it! :)
