Wondering what are my options as far as Greenback cabs. I have a Marshall 1960A that I swapped Greenbacks into, and I love it. However, I'm moving, and I'm probably not going to be able to take it with me.

I know about the EVH 4x12, but wondering what other options I have. I know Marshall cabs are kind of overpriced. They're really expensive, and they're not really all that high-quality. Otherwise, I'd probably just snag a 1960AX or BX or a 1960TV.

What other CP cabs come with Greenbacks? Maybe even Creambacks M65's would be cool. Preferably 16 Ohm.

Thakns!

Bogner. The inside of the cab is as beautiful as the outside. 10 gauge thick oxygen free high dollar speaker wire, machine screws and inserts for the speakers, if you care about that stuff. It just sounds great.
 
Thanks! I didn't realize Bogner cabs came with Greenbacks. I always thought they were V30's except for the Uberkab.
 
Had Splawn cabs before, I found the cabinets very beam-like and more for a metal player. They’re super resonant and insanely efficient. Nothing bad about them at all, but I won’t be running them again.

I snagged an AX and BX cabinet. I actually play the AX cabinet more. Both are great and sound amazing. I can’t recommend them enough.

I've had a few BX's over the years they sound fantastic with every head I've ever played through them.

By metal I mean downtuned/7 string or baritone setups. If you need a cabinet that won’t fall apart running eminence speakers then splawn can handle it. If you want a greenback style cab for 80’s style rock then the BX breaths great and sounds the part.

I do want to say I hate the plastic handles on my AX and BX. I know they do it to save weight but I wouldn’t trust them as tie down points hauling them around. YMMV.
 
You could load any 4X12 with Greenbacks.
Question should be "Best current available 4X12 cab"
In which case, my favorite is the StoneAge.
