Eminence makes a green back type speaker also 50 watts, the stock USA might be the same thing im not sure.

I am thinking that you are referring to the Red Coat Pvt Jack. I have used them, great gb type speakers!

This little device ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/METAL-VOLUM...221?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2ebf2f1425 ) will help you get the amp's most pre-amp distortion at reasonable volume. It is not a speaker attenuator as some think, but I like it's effect!

Highly recommended device. I made it DIY and never play my first series BD without it.

I put the Eminence GB 128 in, huge difference in the drive channel. Real nice usable crunch channel now, little more clean head room also. Highly recommend!

As much as I respect the brand Bogner and adore their tone, they simply overprice their things, which ofcourse adds to the legend, but can be frustrating for someone who has a rather small budget (I'm still studying)

For the pedal your getting and all its options I'd say the Bogner Red is pretty fair priced

I used to have an original Blues Deluxe, and I could never crank it high enough to check out the amp's natural overdrive. The neighbor would get pissed if I had the volume on 4. Always had to rely on pedals for OD at a home-friendly amp volume of 2-3 on the dial. Had to let it go as it was just too loud for my neighborhood and too heavy to tote around for jams...

I did some research, as I was not as familiar with it as the Pvt Jack. Sounds like a good choice!
