My son has my 1969 dripedge Princeton in his room. He runs a 2 x 12 Jet City cab with it. I'd say keep the 10" and you can always do an external cab with it when you want.
(This is a cue for Retroverbial to link that photo of his Princeton he turned into a head. :D )

Restoration is on the way !!!!
I'll use a few replies to show the pictures here of the new baffle and speaker.
The only thing missing is a proper tail Logo and the "F" cap on the speaker plug (On the way) !
Not real crazy about how the grill cloth lined up, however whoever put the junk 12' baffle in didn't leave us much to work with so....................

Chris,

Really nice! I've never heard the vintage Jensen C10Q, in a Princeton. My 1964 has a P10Q. Think that C10Q maybe a bit louder, perhaps a tad better bass?

Yes indeed
I'm very surprised at the solid bass response for a single 10" speaker
Now my PAF wannabe gets a bit flubby at higher volumes but my P-90's and single coils love this amp !!! and speaker.

And I have a matching date spare C10QS in a box too.

Since Arjay helped me on that first baffle a few years ago they get easier every time.
I may eventually have to replace the grill cloth wasn't much to get a good grip on and now The amp has a slight frown.
