I also put a SF Bassman in the trash.  What was I thinking? I won't mention the '65 Super or the Gibson Dove. I have atoned for these sins ever since. The Princeton was a great amp (they all were, actually).

Steven, my heart goes out to you. We all have sinned over the years. I've left behind a SF Super Reverb, a '66 BF Twin (sounded like cathedral bells chiming with a Tele), a SF Bandmaster Reverb, and at a couple of times of true financial desperation, actually had the 1965 Princeton for sale, a potential buyer in my apartment testing it out, and suddenly came to my senses, as if by divine inspiration, when I heard the guy playing through the amp, and quickly ushered him out the door. Then there was the curly maple Custom Shop Gibson ES-335 that I sold for $500 cause I needed moving money....lo
