How are these cabs supposed to be? I found one for $200 and another for $175. The first is supposed to have a wiring problem and it can't be played in stereo, and the second is supposed to have some torn up covering. Are either of these worth buying? Any comments would be greatly appretiated. Thank you.

That price for a 1960 cabinet is an absolute steal. Wiring cabinets is as easy, if not easier than, wiring up a guitar, and schematics can be found everywhere. If you don't care much about cosmetics, go for it! I know I would.

I paid $600 for a full stack before and thought it was a steal so that price is great. I'd buy both. There is really no such thing as a cab wiring problem, one trip to Radio Shack and it would be fixed!!

if you're handy with a needle and thread you could put a sweet plad patch on your cabinet. How sweet would that look

That sounds like my cabinet I replaced the g12 speakers and hard wired it for 16 ohms. Mine is a jcm900 version and the switch was pretty cheasy.

That's a good price for a 1960a.

how do you wire a 4x12 to 16 ohms?? In parallel that's 4 ohms. Please explain...sorry about the brief hijack...

Series Parallel - wire 2 in series, and the other 2 in series.. then parallel the 2 series circuits together.

1 to all of the above...that's an absolute steal. they're great cabinets IMO, and for that price you can't possibly go wrong.

i wish i had come across that kind of deal before i bought mine brand new...buy them both

I like the cabinets and think they are great, and wiring is easy so I would buy them. Simple as that.

i play the Marshall 1936 2x12 occasionally and find it very good.

i was thinking of getting one of those and cutting a new baffle for a 2x15 configuration...

buy both, and sell one for profit, to pay for better speakers for the one you keep...... that is, if you only want one...... this is all from the standpoint of not liking the speakers in there, i didn't like those 75 watters in mine

Wow. Are they really that good of a deal? How much do you think I could get for them?
