Tags on the amp? They are simply ID tags, like what's on a suitcase. Why? If there are multiple Fenders in Tuki padded cases backstage, or wherever .... the ID helps identify the amp is mine. On different occasions I've had folks innocently walk off with my gig bag, or my amp, thinking it was their own. Additionally the tags have a brief description ("Bobby Blackface") and it reminds me of the character/design/speaker of the amp.

I put D'Addario EXL120 strings on my Tele, D'Addario EXL110 strings on the Gibson 225, and one Campilongo Signature has D'Addario ECG524 Chrome Flat Wounds, which give it an amazingly smooth tone and feel. On my 1958 Martin 0015 I use D'Addario EJ13 80/20 Bronze Lights. Whenever I can, I champion D’Addario. Not only are their products the best on the market, but they're good people.

Do I play a Princeton Reverb? Do I recommend the Princeton Reverb Reissue? I own many amps but I prefer the weight, portability and sound of Princeton Reverbs. I own two '66 Princeton Reverbs, and three 70's.
I use one amp mostly- a 1970 Silverface Princeton Reverb with a Celestion G-10 that attains a throaty "compressed" sound. This speaker isn't annoyingly bright so sometimes I'll use it for "jazz" sounds too. The G- 10 sounds great right out of the box. celestion.com/...
I also like the 60's "Gold Back" Jensen C-10 N. The more advanced the the Jensen speaker alphabet (as in Q verses N) the less the wattage capacity. The N Jensen C-10 seem to be robust enough to handle maximum volume, de-tuning and whatever else I throw at it. The highs are cutting but still pleasant. The last time I looked - these speakers were very expensive.
I replace the tubes every 6 months/year - and get it serviced often so it's quiet and fully functional. Until the last couple years, I was a NOS ( New Old Stock - RCA, Sylvania, Brimar etc.) tube guy. But I started experiencing NOS tubes getting more and more inconsistent and meanwhile - more expensive. Not a good combination. I converted - I use JJ's. They are good enough.
Half the battle is keeping a vintage amp maintained. I know of recording studios who proudly boast a catalog of 15 amp models - and my experience is, they have 15 amps that need to be serviced/cleaned.
I did endorse the Fender Princeton reissue and I think the folks at Fender did a great job. I'm proud to endorse the amp. A video of what I have to say about the reissue can be found here • Jim Campilongo Fender ...
That said, one can't go wrong investing in an older Princeton Silverface Reverb. Though the Blackface Princeton Reverb amps sound great and are a good investment, the Blackface amps have gotten a bit pricey. For a little more money above the Princeton Reissue market value, the Silverface Princeton Reverb will hold their value, and they sound great. A new vintage acquisition will usually require some general housecleaning by my amp tech, Pat at Main Drag Music/Brooklyn.
Because of tube inconsistency and wear, I forego the Princeton Reverb reissue as backline. Given a choice I request the Deluxe Reverb Reissue. The Deluxe will have enough headroom no matter how tired they are from rental company usage, and they sound great on 10. I’m a proud owner of the Deluxe Reverb Reissue. I think these are underrated and affordable amps. That said, if you never leave the apartment and want some speaker break up, the Deluxe Reverb Reissue might not be for you. As I said, they perform wonderfully- when cranked.

Great lesson, Jim. Your casual, friendly style, while teaching a really useful technique has made me a subscriber. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed the lesson - thank you! - Jim
I remember finding you the best part of 14 or 15 years ago doing player tips for (I think) Guitar Player. Always admired your playing in the ‘Roy style’
I like lessons from someone who speaks intervals and notes! Thx!
really cool Jim. Made me set up the looper permanently in the practise space for working on ideas like this.
Yeah, gotta say thanks also Jim. Very cool you give your time and knowledge for free. Love what you do.✌️
Thank you and have a great day
Fantastic lesson, Jim! You’ve inspired me to dig deeper into this topic. I would love to see some tips on outside ways to play over the V chord. Thanks!
Just the most exquisite Telecaster tone I think I've ever heard Jim.
Jim, I hope you know how much your words, tone, inspiration, and playing mean to us! just wanted to say thanks, my friend.
also, I'm on the hunt for a faded/white/maple neck tele thanks to how amazing yours always looks :)
The 59 neck does have a nice look that's hard to replicate -but If you get a new neck with a nice glassy fingerboard with just two or three coats of lacquer, it wears fairly fast. Anyway, thanks for your gracious comments and have a great day - Jim
Hi Jim, just wanted to let you know I found this video very useful today and a perfect intro for getting some diminished sounds under my fingers. Love the diminished sound and my ears always perk up when I hear it. I really want to add this to my arsenal, at least the basics. More practice is obviously needed but this got me going. I need to get one of your lessons again, been eyeing Wishful Thinking or Table For One for a while now. All the best and stay safe!
Thanks for another awesome video Jim. Come to England some time soon!
This’s amazing, free lessons from the master.
Sounds great right out of the box. Can really hear the chord changes noodling from this ‘scale’ to the major 1 lines, as you say. Thanks
Thank you Sir! Great lesson!
Thank YOU Jim!
Thanks Jim, I can't wait to pester some of my friends (OK, employers) with some of this flavor!
Great lesson Jim! Always enjoy your playing at The Green Mill in Chicago!
Thank you- Last time we played Chicago (October?) we played Brainwash ... it didn't have the amazing history of the Green Mill, but it was a very good music venue.
Thanks so much Jim , you are amazing . Saludos desde España 🇪🇸 ❤️
You're welcome. Thank you
Jim Campilongo 😊
Super diggable. Four thumbs up.
Very Nice Jim!
Oh My ! this is fantastic...thank you.
Great! Thanks Jim!
Thanks Jim, excellent lesson! Got me going in a different direction
thank 's a lot, great teaching
Jim, you're great, thanks for this. Something I needed today, a little kick in the pants about new finger shapes and movement (and you know I love the theory part of it, ways to name the relationships between notes!)
Jonathan - Good to hear from you! Hope all is well and thanks for keeping in touch.
I'm not yet completely fluent with this, but my thinking (I understand what makes a dominant chord - root, 3rd, 5th, b7th) it's all the notes of the dominant except root is raised half step to be b9.
Really cool! Thanks for the short and useful info :)
Thank you sir, your playing and teaching is very appreciated. I hope to see you play in person next year if I can get to the States. Have a nice day..
Hi Neil - Thank you for your comment and I hope to meet you someday! - Jim
Thanks Jim
David - You are welcome - thanks for watching.
Thanks a lot Jim!
The beard looks great, Jim! I'm playing along (well, trying...) on my Hahn Model C; this is a great scale!
Maggie- Thanks for your comment and it's always great to hear from you- Jim
Jim is turning into what the ladies call a real 'silver fox'.
I'll take that...
thanks for sharing Jim; really good practical & useful info! what looper pedal are you using?

Hello! What camera do u use for your videos? Thank you
Martin Scorsese & Quentin Tarantino are always happy to stop by with their crew.
Does anyone know what the tags are that Jim has on all his gear? You can see them on the gig bag in this video and he has them on his amp handles as well! Never seen that sorta thing.
Time to practice, great vid. Did you wear that shirt to match the wood behind you? Just kidding. Oh, and please come to Rochester.
