Here is my beloved 54 Princeton 5C2 in good condition and excellent working order on the tone scale, tweed and grill cloth in great shape for its age both with perfect patina.. The control board has some pitting but still clear.. Looks to have some newer spragues in it, possibly more, see pics.. When I got it a few years back I did have my tech go through it but, didnt need much more than some contact cleaner.. The speaker is a weber signature series and compliments the amp nicely.. The handle is fine an does carry but, if you're planning on toting it around much I would go with a replacement for preservation purpose.. It has a three prong plug installed.. Transformer original, has sylvania tubes and sounds beautiful.. I bought this when my daughter was a baby to play quietly while she was asleep, its nice to have that glassy chime without disturbing the peace.. Even at 4/5/6 levels it would be coming alive but again not blowing your hair back (not that thats a bad thing), I would play it around 2 - 2 1/2 and it just sings with my strat or tele.. I would like to keep it, its treated me well but I find I can use my deluxe these days much more, that is a wide panel to, I think this era of amp is just amazing.. Oh yes has some writing on the bottom that someone has mostly removed Thanks for looking
