How many, including combo cabs? I have a lot, and want more! Cause you can never have too many. I find myself wanting an Orange 212PPC-ClosedBack and an Orange 212PPC-OpenBack cab, with lightweight neodymium speakers.

Here are the cabs that I currently own:

2 410 Gallien Kreuger neodymium cultralight abs
1 212 gallien ultralight combo neodymium cab
1 orange 212PPC-ClosedBack cab
1 epiphone valve junior 8" combo cab
1 beringer (sp) 8" bass combo cab

What is your current list like?

What are all the speaker cabs that you have owned?

p.s. there is no requirement for serious GASaholics to list all 15 cabs out, haha!! :beerchug:
 
Re: HOW MANY CABS DO YOU HAVE??? Including "Combo" cabs

2 *real* hardcore cabs:
Marshall 1960A 4x12 (guitar & bass)
Carvin USA ProBass 1x15 (fills out the bass stack nicely... thump'n'midrange, none 'o that 10" basketball rubber speaker farty crap)

...and 2 crap combos. Never use their internal speakers anyway.

Re: HOW MANY CABS DO YOU HAVE??? Including "Combo" cabs

My main cab is an old 70's Orange 4 x 12 cab I stripped and re-tolexed in Marshall white Levant, it has 2 x G12H Anni's and 2 x G1265's. I have a Cornford RK 4 x 12 with V30's and a Cornford 2 x 12 with V30's. I gave my sons my Marshall cabs, 1 is a HW R.I 4 x 12 with G12H30 Heritage speakers and the other is an old 70's Checkergrille 4 x 12 with 2 x G12H original and 2 x G1265's. Other than that I have a Cornford Huricane 1 x 12 combo that I can use as a cab, a Marshall 2554 1 x 12 silver Jubilee combo and a Marshall 1912 1 x 12 that is a POS. I recently sold my old original '72 Orange 4 x 12 to a mate ... fantastic cab!
 
Re: HOW MANY CABS DO YOU HAVE??? Including "Combo" cabs

I currently own a Blackstar Artisan 2x12" cab (oversized "tall" cab in the vein of Bogner 2x12" rather than Recto 2x12"), an Orange PPC212, and a Mesa Thiele 1x12".

The Orange will probably go as it's just a little too big for my needs.

I've never been one to collect cabs (more towards hoarding guitars) - usually just have a 2x12" and 1x12". Haven't felt the urge to own a 4x12" in many years.

2 Chilly Bird 4x12 cabs, 1 with vintage 30s and eminence m12s, And other with evm-12l speakers. 1 earcandy buzz bomb with a celestion g12m-65 and eminence swamp thang, 1 Marshall db7215 2x15 cab. Lastly a Randall RG-80es combo with a celestion g12h-100.

I also have a pair of old utah 15" stereo speaker cabs that I'll plug my Marshall 800 or Eggie seminar amp into. Really inefficient speaker, but sounds REALLY good
 
Re: HOW MANY CABS DO YOU HAVE??? Including "Combo" cabs

I love 15" speakers. They are 'Smunchy'... Smooth and crunchy!

Re: HOW MANY CABS DO YOU HAVE??? Including "Combo" cabs

I suppose it's four

1 x Trace-Elliot Speed-Twin
1 x Marshall Valvestate 8080
1 x Fender Super-Sonic 22
1 x Roland Bass Cube 80

I need something bigger than a single speaker cab

Re: HOW MANY CABS DO YOU HAVE??? Including "Combo" cabs

Lemme think...

1973 pro reverb with a Carvin GT12 (circa 2002) and a proprietary Celestion taken from a Marshall dsl combo. The original Utah speakers were Fender's idea of a bad joke if you ask me.

Mesa Recto 2x12 (V30)

Carvin 4x12 circa 1995 with the 100 watt British Series speakers. (With the "Fozzy Bear" covering)

Mesa Lonestar Special 1x12 with a Celestion Black.

Carvin 2x12 open back circa 2002 that came with GT12's. It appears to be the exact same cab they make today though I'm sure the speaker compliment is different.

An old (crica 1972) Sunn cab that was once a 4x12 tower PA cab that I chopped in half. It's been loaded with various speakers listed above over the years. I think it's empty at the moment. The twin 4x12 tower sits on it's side on cement blocks and makes a good shelf for my LP collection and provides speakerage for AM radio.
 
Re: HOW MANY CABS DO YOU HAVE??? Including "Combo" cabs

Two '70's Kustom oversized vent back 4x12's, one with G12-65's, one with T75's.
Modified Randall 4x12 "uberklone" T75/V30's
G-Flex 2x12 with the stock Emi GBE-12's (V12)
Mesa 1x12 EVM 12S
 
Re: HOW MANY CABS DO YOU HAVE??? Including "Combo" cabs

Orange 412 with G1265's
Marshall 1960a wtith 75's/v30's

Have owned:

Mesa Recto
Marshall 1960b
Randall
Krank
5150
Mode 4 cab with c90/k100's
Avatar and Lopo 2x12's
Blackstar
Egnater

Oh yeah!, and 2 Framus Dragon 4x12's with V30's

I've tried a bunch, and i really miss my open back cabs for cleans. So airy and lush sounding... i'm thinking about getting one of them partially open Mesa road king cabs to get the best of both worlds, or an open back Orange 2x12.

Re: HOW MANY CABS DO YOU HAVE??? Including "Combo" cabs

I have 2 Marshall 4x12's. One lead and one Classic,prefer the classic.
A 1960's Fender 1x12.
Another 1x12 from Orange, my favorite cab right now.

Sold my Crate and Mesa cab as they just sounded poor compared to the others. Plus the 2x12 closed back Mesa,I swear,weighed twice what a 4x12 weighs hehe.

I don't own any combo's, seems like a waste of money if you like different sound options.
 
Re: HOW MANY CABS DO YOU HAVE??? Including "Combo" cabs

Currently just my mesa 1x12, could be changing soon though...
 
Re: HOW MANY CABS DO YOU HAVE??? Including "Combo" cabs

I only have 1 combo (4x10 super reverb) and 1 cabinet (4x12 plywood 1960 Marshall).

Not counting studio monitors and the like.
