The AC30 has pronounced upper-mid chime around 3-4kHz; the Princeton Reverb is naturally darker and more scooped with smoother highs. Kept treble moderate (5) since the Princeton's treble shelf is already bright but less cutting than AC30. Pushed mid +1 to compensate for the Princeton's mid-scoop. The original tone relies heavily on delay and reverb — your onboard reverb at 6 gets you partway there, but the lack of delay pedal means you'll lose the ambient wash and rhythmic repeats that define this tone.
