Been a while since I owned an older cab with the Marshall labelled G12 Vintage speakers (T3897). I forgot how great they sounded.
This particular one is from the mid-00's and to my ear the V30 bite is there but in a more ear-pleasing way than what's in say our Friedman BE412 (mid 2010's Chinese models).
And the build quality is just fine. I mean Bogner, Diezel cabs etc. are great but twice the price and frankly if you're not getting good tone with a Marshall cab the problem is likely elsewhere in the chain. Unless you're running post 80's G12T-75's, then yep it's probably the cab.
Anyway thought I'd share and attempt to divert some of the talk here to tone, and away from caterpillars.
