Title: cab question
Post by: andi.j on May 20, 2009, 01:29:26 PM

right, gonna check out the blackstar ht-5 head on friday (the store's out of combo's...they're also out of 1x10's...damn them)

does anyone have any views on the new marshall haze 1x12's? d'ya reckon it'd work out with the ht5?
they're loaded with a 1 x 12" Celestion G12-66 Marquee speaker  if that helps

cheers,
andi


(edit - or, there's a Custom 16 ohm 12" Eminence Lady Luck Speaker  in the form of the epi valve jr cab?

A matamp or a Martamp....you'll never want to buy another...(I went through a few cabs before bought a Matamp, so cheaper ones end up being false econemy)

matamp sounds like a nice idea - but sadly i've  gotta keep the costs down

- and black cherry's definitely the best colour choice for an esp/ltd!

Sure are and probably not as expensive as you think!

Here's my Minimat and matching 1 x 12 cab.  4 watts of EL84 goodness, the cab is loaded with a Celestion G12H30 Heritage.

The Matamp slant 1x12 is a very classy looking and well-built cab.
