I had it modded for more gain (losing the tremelo) which made it about the same output as a PR, and gigged with it a few times, but had it returned to stock (I liked how it sounded, but it just seemed a shame to not have the tremelo!), and later sold it during a time of extreme financial distress. I miss that amp!

If I still had it, I think I'd go with a clean boost pedal rather than modding it...

Cheers, Tim
I have a good idea- I'll bring my non-reverb Princeton to your place and we'll compare the two side-by-side!
