I dont have clipsof this amp yet but I did just record an ep. A spotify link is in the tips and clips if youd like to have a listen. I did all the guitars on that using either a twin or a princeton ii.

Nice, the wheat grill cloth with rough fender cream tolex was exactly what I was thinking of - then I saw an image of a reissue princeton with sonic blue tolex and wheat grill cloth and I thought I might go in that direction.. Then there's also the speaker - more decisions, but at least I can swap that out any time..
And yes, I'm in Sydney, and know Eric, will be hitting him up for sure once the tech is done. I'm not sure there's anyone else around that does cabinets..

Would love to hear some clips of yours also!

One day I'm gonna get eric to do my old twin in that combination. Right now it has no tolex and just stain with estapol.

I dig the look of stained/varnished cabs. There's a Hotrod Deluxe model that comes like that as standard - they charged more for it! Is it decent looking wood at least? If so i'd say leave it that way!

Yeah it's a late 60s twin so it is solid pine. I guess a previous owner ripped off the tolex once it got too ratty and just did a little sanding then stained and lacquered it. It just looks a bit like a home made job lol

I did something similar with a BF Bandmaster---found a 3x10" cab for it cut for the Bandmaster chassis. Used it with a reverb tank or pedal for about 5 years. Another amp that Fender never made. A little less power than a Super Reverb, a lot less weight. I have a '64 Bassman head that I am going to stuff in a 1x15" cab one of these days.
