Lucas Miles Vintage 65 Princeton Reverb
"My Lucas Miles Princeton amp is just fantastic mate. I can’t praise your work highly enough. It brings the best out of my guitars and therefore out of my playing. So many amps I play through give disappointing results and I often feel they are hindering rather than helping me to get the tone I want. What you’ve delivered here hits the spot no matter which guitar I plug into it. Whether hum-bucker or single-coil it’s perfect and even my acoustic instruments sound amazing through it - that’s a big deal for a tube amp! There is simply not an unpleasant frequency to be found in this thing. I don’t know how you did it but congratulations … looking forward to taking this baby along to many more gigs. Bravo!"......Geoff Achison
"The amp is going great, the sound it puts out is exceptional. When I had a Fender reissue I couldn't turn it up to stage volume without the top end becoming overly brittle, regardless of EQ, but this one just sounds better and better the higher up you go - like it should - and I've not been told to turn it down at all, which is a great sign. " ..J. Argent-Jones VIC
"I had been looking for an affordable, good condition vintage Princeton for sometime. If only I had found Lucas Miles amps earlier I could have saved a lot of time. My LM 65 Princeton is now my main amp, whether I'm plugging in my jazz archtop or Telecaster. The sound easily matches the quality of tone from my genuine early 60s Fender Vibrolux. The workmanship is high quality. I would recommend a Lucas Miles amp to anyone...and I already have!".......Pierre Jaquinot . VIC

Steve Lambert –
One amp to rule them all? Hard to argue otherwise having heard the LM ’65 Princeton Reverb using an array of guitars i.e. solids, semi’s and archtops, all of which have high gain pickups from Seymour Duncan, Sheptone, PRS etc. This amp gives in spades no matter where the dials are set and it’s almost impossible to get a bad sound. The build quality is faultless, as is the attention to detail in all respects. The Weber 10 inch speaker converts the all tube circuit into sublime tones no matter what instrument is used, in my case a 1997 Gibson LP R0, neck pickup with it’s tone knob at 3. The Princeton volume at 5, treble at 5, bass at 5, reverb at 3, speed at 0 and intensity at 3. There you have humbucker heaven! And don’t even think about a 12 inch speaker. Made in Australia. Hats off to Horler, keep ‘em coming Dean. Thanks. Steve Lambert SAWTELL
