About this amp

Introduced in 2004, the Lil King Reverb is Headstrong’s reproduction of the 1964 Princeton Reverb: 12 watts on a pair of 6V6 tubes, tube-driven reverb and tremolo, and a simple Volume/Treble/Bass/Reverb layout. It ships with either the period-correct 10” speaker or the more popular 12” GA-SC64 ceramic speaker for more low end and projection. Fully hand-wired with a two-button footswitch, offered as a combo or head. Alnico speaker upgrades and matching extension cabinets are available.
