Im a Marshall guy with the studio series I have been itching for some fender cleans and that. I been eyeing the Deluxe and the Princetons HW but they are pricey and have not played them. Well Guitar center had the Tweed princeton so I bought off the shelf for a 100.00 off. Took it to my girls place and cranked it trying to break it in. It has a lot bass! with my Les Paul yeah they can be darker, I had to run it with the bass all the way down and run the treble pretty high. I had fenders in the past I have about 6 hours on the speaker I know it can take 20 to 40 hours to sound its best so i wonder if people have the same experience with these. It does breakup nice though.
