SRV-Zeppelin Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Hey guys, I am picking up a 50 watt Marshall Vintage Modern head on Friday and was wondering what speaker cabs you would suggest to go along with it. I was going to go with the run-of-the-mill Marshall 1960A slant cab until the sales guy recommended I used the Vintage Modern 425 cab with greenback speakers. Comparing the two I really don't notice a difference, so is it worth the extra $200? I'm open to other brands too, but Marshall was my first thought as I'm looking for a 4x12 closed cab. I play a lot of classic rock and blues (as you can probably tell by my username) so I want something loud with a lot of thump and clarity to it. Thanks, SRV-Zep Oh, and I play a 2007 LP standard and a '62 american vintage strat reissue if anyone was interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damian Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 You'll get lots of answers I hope.....Yes, for a 4X4, spring extra for the better speakers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Versatile Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Hi there....good question !! My advice is if possible to try before you buy People spend a lot of time and effort searching for their best sound and it is always a personal thing It can only really be judged onstage and at a variety of venues And also there is a lot of info on the web about who uses what Personally I like to see the same name on the head and cab(!)

HeadCase Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Personally, I freakin' love the 425 cab!!! Placing it atop another cab (just for listening height) made it way better still. I highly recomend this, probably w/ any cab. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
