Adam - if you're still in Manchester let me know if you want to try my Martamp 4x12.  I've got two V30s and two G12Hs in it  :)
Thanks man! I've got a hectic schedule at the moment, but may well take you up on that :D

^ I remember reading about a couple people complaining about zilla cabs. I was going to get a spare 1x12 but then I bailed out.

I should think Martin / Matamp is the way to go esp given the price and complete choice of covering tolex etc!

What did they have to complain about with Zilla cabs?

Reading some reviews and talking to a mate, is selling me on the orange cab!

Sounds Great have one in, in black too, might have to get it!

What a good company to get stuff re covered in a different colour?

Why buy the Orange to then recover it?????  :?

I'd buy a Matamp or Martamp in the colour you want.  You'll get a cab of the same size and quality!

Yes.

Recovering a cab is a pig of a job by the way...

That's crazy! It'll be exactly like yours! Except maybe with a picture frame front, retro is it?

Jeff said he had a black one in the stock room or something

Yes. Suspiciously so.
Exactly the same price as the Mini 4x12. Wonder if there's been a mix up?  :?

Another shout for bogner here

I got an Uberkab for my powerball. Because it made all the other cabs I've ever heard sound like sloppy, thin, depthless toys.

Granted I havent heard all that many, but were talking 1960A, 5150-whateverthestockcabis, engl V60, mesa slanted V30 loaded and a couple of others.

Never heard, but would really really like to -

Vader cabs.
VHT Big Bottom (or fat bottom, whatever its called)

I'd be really suprised if they're better (for metal) than the bogner, though.

How do you feel the Bogners compare to the Orange cabs?
