ElPedro,
Way to hang in there and get it done. :guitar1
Guides on your quest for tone.
 Oh yeah, and I'm usually just kidding so don't take me too seriously.

Just wanted to drop in and say Thank You to everyone who took the time to review my situation and hep me through to resolution.  I've been busy at work and building amps, so haven't been back to the forum for a little bit.  I should really check the forums every day, seems like I learn at least one new thing each time I visit!.

Thanks to the advice of you all, I have built three additional Princeton Reverb's since I got the last one working.  Each one has functioned perfectly without a single issue.

I don't know what it is about the Princeton Reverb, but I really love that amp.  The tone is amazing right out of the box (well, up to a point, you all know how bassy that thing is stock), it fits my alarm box chassis well, and is loud enough for bedroom play and small gigs. I've started doing some mods to tame the bass, buying old iron to try as transformers (haven't received any yet), and working on cabinet designs for the heads and combos.

Thanks Again, Everyone!
