This is a clone i built a few years ago. Original Fender cabinet, transformers were used.
$1450.00 OBO and freight
Here is a description from my old post in Electronics:
One of my latest projects. An original 1967 cabinet I had gotten and re-covered. I also have a cover for the amp as well as the original power and output transformers. The baffle (from Rick Johnson) will be for a 12" Jensen Neo Jet. Chassis, plates, and eyelet board are from a kit by a long time manufacturer of great reproduction Fender amp parts. NOS tubes (RCA, Sylvania), 225 Orange drop caps (just the best tone I have found for BF era amps). All cloth covered wire, ceramic power tube sockets. Old reverb bag with new tank. Should have a speaker baffle here soon. Also another Princeton cab coming for the original project for Bob Dell (who owned the original amp). We converted his original chassis to a 45 watt Princeton Reverb. Due to the large transformers (Bassman and Twin Reverb) and a 12" JBL we needed a 3" taller cab.

Hi Ken. A few questions.
What are the baffle boards made from on the 12†amps? Are they the original Fender particle board or something else?
Will a JBL D120f fit into a Princeton? Or it that why you had a larger cab built for your mod?

| Plywood baffle. Not sure how many ply. Rick Johnson built it. Not sure if a JBL would fit, but don't see any reason why it would not with the offset speaker pattern used |

Pine or birch plywood on the baffle?
Thanks!

Awesome. That is an upgrade from the stock Fender for tone.
