Loungers,

local guy has above for sale, and will go plug into it tomorrow. What can I expect headroom and tone wise compared to vintage blackface princeton? New handle and caps, everything else supposedly original. Any comments on fair price range?

It won't be quite as powerful (ie: loud) as an AA764 blackface Princeton due to slightly lower plate voltages and the tone will be a bit darker as well. They're nice porch weasels and clean examples generally go for $1100+ though bargains abound in today's "buyer's market".

Best of luck, HTH. Be sure to post some pics if the sale is consummated.
