About this amp
The Columbia is a single-channel, 6V6/6L6-based combo modeled on Fender’s AA1164 Princeton Reverb circuit, adding a middle control the original amp lacked plus a deepened tremolo and smoothed reverb. A 4k/8k switch on the 6L6 configuration trades cleaner headroom for quicker breakup.
