That'd be my fave too for loud rock...especially with the G12H30's. I like the looks of the slanted bottem but the straight front sounds a little bigger.
I never use mine tho...just to loud and heavy!
I prefer to play through a pair of Fender Deluxes with Celestion Alnico 12's or Deluxe Reverbs with Celestion G12H30's. That's loud enough and much easier to move.

I use the Marshall 1960 TV (Tall Vintage).
It's a cab sligthly taller than 1960 cabs (3/4 inches more) and it's loaded with Greenbacks.
I like those for the greenbacks tone and the taller cab brings slightly more bass !

My choice of cabs is a blend between two manufacturers:
I use a Rivera 4x12 on the top b/c it's very, very loud, very articulate, has great projection and resolution. It's also made out of very solid birch maple, and weighs a ton. The cabinet doesn't flex much when cranked, and thus you don't get much backwave from the cabinet itself in your tone.
I use an old (late 70's - early 80's) Hiwatt 4x12 for the bottom. It's an unbelievably articulate cabinet, and on it's own, it's a bit bass shy, but has a great midrange bite.
The combination of the two cabs is a very unique sound that I really enjoy!!
For live gigs, tho, I usually only bring the Rivera 4x12 for simplicity's sake.

I like the early 70's Marshall cabs, too. The Bogner is basically a copy of that cab with Vintage 30's in it. And, I have a Bogner

The favourite cab I played was the Mesa Rectifier Standard 4x12". Very Modern not everyone's cup of tea i think. Palm Mute Rocks through this. Just let the E chord ring...... 
. Single note riffs come very fat.
BTW only cab i played where raising the bass knob isn't annoying me
