Think you're confusing him with Plexi over at RF...he's the one that requests meetings on the playground by the flagpole after school when you own him too hard.
No, that was Ace CaveKlan...competing with GAyR for "biggest compulsive liar douchenozzle" of all DLR sites..

Haha, dumbass, you are just dying to know, aren't ya?
Too bad. You will just have to guess!
He oughta know, being a Wallmart greeter 'n all...
Here's one of my 75w loaded cabs I sold within the last year or so.. still fully in action. Looks like he glued the grille tear, upper left speaker.
That was a nice score for him, I think I cut that one loose for $275
...so how much can I dump a set of 75s out of one of my cabinets for?
Never mind, just did a quickie Ebay search...could get nearly enough to finance some Scumbacks...

I had like 6 sets of 75's in storage, I loaded all but 2 keeping the 85 set and the 2005 set.
Everything else sold with a cabinet for $225 to $450 depending on condition and tolex color, but I did sell one alacarte for $225 (the trade with the V30 guy) and another set I got $250 for.
I thought you had G12M-70 in that Carvin, not G12T-75s
Yeah, that's what I meant... could still dump them for enough to nearly replace them all...and again, I hear the Scumbacks are better than the Chinese Greenback reissues...
I sold 2 or 3 sets in the last 5 years of the G12M-70's, I got $125 for one set and $150 for another - so there you go.
I even had a set of 70's loaded in a newer Ampeg slant, all I could get was $200 and man that was a sweet cab in nice condition. No top end, nor good low end growl but the 15 year old who got that was had one of those Line6 Spider Valve jobs, so he didn't care.
AND selling bare sets takes time, so if you're thinking of doing it now is a great time to get started since you got time on your hands. Or just sell the whole thing.
People buying used bare sets wanna steal of a deal and they'll fucking call once a week till they it sinks in a) the price is firm b) the price is fair c) the set is going to go to someone else if they don't buy it soon.
That Scumback guy is in Torrance and has even called me on all the junk I got rid of... he's a Celestion collector/seller.
He's got a separate site where he lists vintage odd cones like 50's and 65's for $200 - 600. I don't know if he gets that for 'em but he's said he's got a shop you could go down and bring your head to blast thru any of his sets.
If you were interested in the Scumbacks. Personally I find the name a distraction, like he's not serious about what he does.
If he relaunched his branding as something more regal like "Stellar" or "Nicetone" instead of providing the notion you're paying 100 bucks for "scum" he might get somewhere. But he knows his Celestions since he's posted a vast degree of photos and information on the topic, I trust the scumbacks should probably sound like he says if you go check em with your Boogie.
Yeah, I'd do the cabs one at a time anyway, since I'm gonna have some rehearsal time comin' up...need at least one functional at any given time, y'know...
It takes a two weeks to a month to get $175 - $225 for a Carvin like that, but only 20 mins to pick up a Marshall or Recto or Stilleto cabinet replacement locally.
I wouldn't worry a second about listing it, list early and schedule the caller who wants to see it based on your priority not his.
I've had dudes call when I'm heading out the door, and turned them down for the next day when I really needed the money now yet had 50-50 fallout scheduling a convenient time.
Thats why I say listing early doesn't mean you have to cut it loose right away but it does mean the guy who buys it will be seeing it for the next week, taunting him to bring you cash.
Wouldn't a Recto or Stiletto (and possibly a run of the mill Marshall) have Vintage 30s in it, and not greenback reissues? :confused:
Depends. If I was you, with the Boogie, I'd probably want two Stilleto slants and they're not easy to find used.
I dunno what kind of car you have for rehearsal, I would keep a blanket in the 4dr BMW use a motorcycle strap to load one on the roof, then pull the seat out and chuck the rest of the gear in the back seat.
A Stiletto is of standard Marshall dimensions, the Recto's the tall one that you can only fit sideways in some 4dr cars. I had a 2 dr 325 and I couldn't fit a Recto in the backseat without a fight so I'd throw the blanket on the roof and strap the cabinet thru the handles on top of it.
Stiletto's the way to go for you I think, but they rarely come up for sale used. Never owned one, but I could fit a Marshall slant in the backseat of a 2dr.. mobility in Los Angeles is the issue. Get out, get back, never leave the gear where your drummer can think "aha now I got a geetar amp to tinker with anytime I want to" fuck that.
I never leave nothing noplace, at no rehearsal or lockout joints.

OH whatever speaker ever comes with any cabinet I ever bought, I consider that after the fact.
When I select a cab, I'm looking for condition like a shell.
If I don't like the speakers in it they're easily changed.. not all greenbacks sound perfect nor the same, and if used Mesa Stiletto cabs are only had on the used market with Vintage 30's then that's what you have to have to get the shell.
Greenback reissues: I wouldn't buy them new without finding out if they were made in the UK or China, when you could easily buy a Marshall cab with greens and switch em for V30's.
Most young guys now they read about shit, then buy it and the most popular request is for V30s. So if you buy two cabs, then do the old switcheroo, you won't find one buyer complaining to find a used Marshall listed with Vintage 30's you swapped for greenbacks.
You'd be looking for: older pre-1981 straights or slants, with the check-grille cloth, or the newer reissues up to the 2000's which are stock 25 cabs such as Marshall 1960AV or 1960BV.
The V'models have either 25's or V30s
