Very cool deal!!!

I should look up the keyboard players in my area, and see if they have
any guitar gear they'd like to trade.

I've never heard the trem in my Princeton Reverb!

I'd just cut off the existing plug, and figure out which color wire
goes to which connection using a DMM, and hook the new one up the same

But that doesn't mean that it's hooked up properly inside the amp. I
think that's outlined somewhere on the aga website.
