One thing he said was they did NOT like getting spit on .... no surprise there .... but he said they had to take it because it was the fans way of expressing appreciation.
Yeah, I never got that at all, being spit on...While I'm not a fan like Greg, I do like some of their stuff, & have to admit they were an icon....still are, really, but just sayin'...
So what do you boys think? Was thinking of picking up some speakers for an existing cab but this would be less expensive. Always wanted a Marshall 4x12 but never wanted to actually lug it around. Now I have some studio space and my GAS is kicking in.

If you've got the coin, I say go for it Bill. That's just like my "bastard" cab, gave $300 + $50 shipping 2 years ago. I bought mine used from GC, & all I had to go by was a picture. When I got it, the bolts holding the speakers were rolling around in the cab, & a couple of the speakers were actually about to fall off the baffle, but nothing a screwdriver couldn't fix...
I do recommend ditching the mono/stereo switch, & replacing 1/4" jacks though. I didn't have a problem, as I nipped it in the bud, before it had a chance, but I've read about a lot of those failing, which could take a transformer or something else with it...
Roughed up, scuffed, whatever, as long as it's not falling apart, go for it dude...IIRC, my cab came from Houston, I do remember it was in Texas though...
