Can anyone tell me the difference between the Princeton 112 & the 112 Plus?
I have just purchased a 112, manufacturing date of 5/98 and the only manual I can find is for the 112 Plus. Is there something I should know about the difference?

Thank you,

Does your Princeton 112 have an effects loop ("preamp out" and "power amp in" jacks)? How about a headphone jack?

The Princeton 112 Plus edition from 1999 has these features on the front panel.

Thank you for responding
Yes the front panel is exactly the same as the 112 Plus, but the name is just Princeton 112.
I downloaded the manual and compared the knobs and inputs. All the same.
The date code with the 2 letters says 5/98.

What do you think?

The gain & contour on the drive channel give a variety of effects to the sound. All the way to heavy metal. It is not that important what effect I might not have, this amp is exactly what I was looking for, it makes my Epiphone Casino sound great.
I really appreciate you taking the time and if you have any other thoughts in regard to this amp, I would appreciate them.
