Does anyone have one of these, or knowledge of them ?

What are the food options ? Is there a healthy foods option ? Chinese ? Does it dispense beverages ?

Hey coastie, here is a great web site with a little more info for you:

I have a '55 Princeton tweed, which is a different animal. My tweed at 4 watts is closer to a champ but in a larger cabinet. The brown Princeton at 12 watts is indeed a nice studio amp and that price does not sound out of line.

Here is a nice brown Princeton coming up on eBay:

and recent auctions have ended at less than a grand. Might be worth trying for the eBay amp.

The foodswitch switches from vegan to meatified food ... it wasn't available on all models.

@Sal: Hi Sal, I think Coastie is having a little fun with the seller's misspulling.

Thank you Sal anyway, for your kind pointers.

Might one call it a more "refined" tweed deluxe, without not quite so much power? If working, it might have a tremolo that is soooo nice...like making cottage cheese out of goat's milk...or some other appropriate Blues Brothers quote :wink:

It's a brown(gravy)-sounding amp.
