id like to build a princeton (champ with tone control) im wondering if there are any improved versions? other than the fender tweed or blackface designs.

Define the "improvements" you seek! Lotsa playing around room with these simple designs so small circuit changes often make lotsa difference.

Scott the biggest improvements I've heard are when a builder uses a "real", higher end 10 watt OT, a larger cabinet, (like one from a Harvard), and a great speaker.

Just to add to Bruces reply,try a 6L6 type power tube.I have a tweed clone with a 7591 power tube and switchable between cathode and fixed bias,and an Amperex 5AR4 rect.It is in a fairly large cab made out of maple with a 10 inch Weber speaker,puts out 12 clean watts and maxes at about 17watts.The Weber speaker was the last change and really took it over the edge.Comment
