I wouldn't bother with a Princeton Chorus and I like solid state amps. Personally I'd have a lot more fun with a good OD pedal and a Blues Jr than any number of modelling amps. That's mostly because I'd get on and play with that rig and not get bogged down in the sound shaping possibilities (disclaimer: I gigged a BJ and a TS808RI for three years and a Pro Jr and TS5 for a while before that. No problems being heard with either rig).
