IME, certain amps have more of a "blackface mystique" than others. Twin Reverb, Bassman, Super Reverb, Deluxe Reverb. I remember at one time, BF versions of these amps sometimes went for twice as much, or more, compared to the SF versions. BF Princeton Reverb amps have always commanded over $1K, since the 1990s. While you could buy SF PR amps for well under $500 --- in much better condition. And we all know that the circuitry of DR, PR, and Champs are basically the same throughout the BF and SF era.

I suppose we should be grateful that these old Fender amps so are so highly desired. Maintains a good supply of parts. And knowledgeable people on Boards, like these.



:D
