Hey all,
I didnt get out today to try the Princetons.
I own a Blues Junior now. Texas Red with a Celestion 30 in it. Like Chrism says, you need to crank both volumes to get it overdriven. I too would rather avoid pedals to overdrive .I mean, why own a tube amp if you aren't going to overdrive it . I have always felt the amp lacks balls.
ChrisM...are you saying that if one changes the pots on the "Deluxe"s or "Reverbs" that I can overdrive it without cranking the volumes up to max?
imposter, how much volume do you need to start overdriviingg the Deluxe?

In my opinion, you need to really open one channel up on an amp to get its tonal character. An Ibanez TS9 is great for overdrive (had one of the early '80s ones). Not so sure about the new ones as I don't own one. You could also use a valve based overdrive pedal.
