Wanting a 'blues' tone is a broad category. How you get a SRV to a Buddy to a BB King to a David Gilmour or whomever dictates what amp meets your needs. What type of blues or what artists to you find you like their tone?

I do want to point out that the Princeton is a need little 2 input amp with lots of versatility.

It also depends on what guitar(s) you play as to whether you will able to achieve the sound.

Last, instead of pitching in on the amp, you may want to consider stomp boxes like a Tube Screamer.
