  • Princeton chorus schematic?

    So I've fallen upon this random fender Princeton chorus amp chassis my buddy had in his closet. It's kinda beat up (which is not a problem) , but what I am dealing with us that it's not getting power. There is voltage before the transformers and after it but can't seem to get power to the fuse and into the rest of the circuit. I haven't taken the board out yet but wanted to peek at the schem for it before I went further. Of anybody has it or has a link to it let me know.

    Thanks,

    Which Princeton Chorus? The late 1980s, with 8 jacks on the front, or the late 1990s with only two jacks on front, but a DSP FX circuit?

    The newer one is on the Fender main web site and also here:

    I don't understand your sentence. As far as I know the only fuse is the main fuse, so if it is bad, ther would be no voltages on or after the power transformer. If there is voltage on the transformer, then the fuse must be OK.

    So. Do you have 120vAC right at the primary wires of the transformer, and do you have more or less 20vAC to ground from each red wire? The red/yellow center tap should be grounded. That should result in about 27vDC on each main filter cap. SO just what is there and what is not?
    Education is what you're left with after you have forgotten what you have learned.
