By the way, the head is a Mesa 50 caliber plus, so does anyone know about any of them, I hear Avatar is good. Also to mention I am somewhat on a budget here.

Avatar is good. I use one with my Dual Rectifier. I have a v30/g12h30 mix.
Sounds great!

Avatar!!! I get GREAT tone out of my 1x12 3/4 back mesa cab(with my f50 head) I might add though.

I used to group a DC-3, DC-5 and DC-10 for a very large, full sound! Real full, but too loud.

What kind of music are you playing through it? Is there a specific type of tone that you are trying to achieve?

Metal to Rock.... get the Marshall 1960A cab. Unfrigginbelievable!!! It's loaded with Celestion G12T-75s. Trust me on this... serious crunch. I got mine used for $300.

+1

even though i have a different model head, when it's run through the 1960A it just sounds awesome. you can't go wrong, especially if you can find a good used deal on one of these.

If at all possible, TS, I would try to find a way to listen to these things before you buy one, no matter which way you decide to go. Maybe make a list based on suggestions that you get here and then try to find a cab near you to play through. Tone is so subjective, and I would hate to see you spend your money and be disappointed.
