can anyone fill me in on the disadvantages of the pull boost feature on a silverface fender princeton reverb? was thinking of buying one. the seller tells me it has no effect in the off position, unlike a twin or pro. is this true?

Going from memory, if you look in the Groove Tubes book at the schematics, there is no difference between the '60s and mid to late '70s models except for the pull boost. When the boost is off the circuits are the same. Either of these are fine sounding, light and portable little amps.
When the boost is activated, it REALLY boosts the signal. Also, because of the design, when the boost is on you will lose a lot of the reverb signal.
Note that the '80s Princeton Reverb II is a different amp than what we are talking about here.
