Mesa Cab: Thoughts on this one?

[beaubrummels]

I didn't read the whole thread, but I can say the best and most affordable "Marshall" cab I've played/heard is Randall. Very solid, with the right Celestions, produces the same sound as Marshall.

I was in there today looking at MacBooks. The cab is still there, the speakers are Celestion G12M-70s. Which are a bit bright for my tastes but if I buy that cab a X100B head is not far behind and I could EQ the cab any way I want.

DO IT!!!!

I'd be tempted to get that Carvin 4x12 for 150$ . . . even if it never leaves my basement. :P

Here is the Carvin. It is sweet I almost pulled the trigger but I do not need another 4x12 I already have 3. The tag says $199 but when I walked over to it the guy said he wanted it out of there and he would take $150. Very tempting.

You could probably get it for 100 bucks or less if you really wanted to. I would be all over that!

[Aceman]

If you can resist that for $150 then you deserve a medal! That would make a very worthy x-pattern platform, if they are not already t75s.

Even I would have bought that! In spite of the Carvin Shame.

Hard pass

My 2x12 is ported with two 16 ohm 150 watt speakers running in parallel.
It'll handle the 200 watt SS Randall head that drives it. And get rather loud.

interestingly enough, I have 2 EV 150 watt speakers I was thinking of throwing in a closed back 2x12 cab for a high powered cab for needing loud without pushing a 4x12 around.

I'm guessing you like that set up.

[Securb]

What's it got for speakers?

Not sure but they all matched and nothing looked like a recone so I am guessing they were stock.

The Desert Island Amp!!

Same, I think I have 6 4x12s stored right now. only use 1 and thats for certain outdoor gigs rarely

CLubs sound reinforcement is too effective these days and for recording a 2x12 will perform the same if chambered the right way

I already have 4 half stacks. It would not get used at any price. The only amp on the GAS list is a Fender Deluxe
