Honestly, nothing.

I’ve got some bangers and they’re all pretty damn good.

I’ve got a few “nice to haves” that I’d like to add but nothing I’m really gaga for these days.

Especially to justify the price of new stuff and what it can actually do to add anything “more”.
There is a few cool new amps, the RFG, or I don’t know how to spell it, -those are cool man!!
The Euro guys are getting super good.

@James Freeman . Not the 2203?

I've added the 2203 in the first post.
The 5150 II and JCM800 2203 are my favorite amps and do exactly what I want them to do.
I'll probably throw in a Mark IIC+ or IV for another crushing tight high gain flavor.

 

[Whizzinby]

Tan panters will vehemently disagree.

Gotta add, I want a Marshall 1960BV 4x12 just as much as I want a JCM800 2203 if not more.
One day....

Yeah that’s really it. For as much as shit has increased in price, none of it is going to offer much different to what I’ve got already.

Marshall 1960BV

I checked the price at Sweetwater.

$1,900 for a 4x12.

Wow!

I'm glad I picked up my Rivera and Fryette 4x12s used for $600 each. The new prices are mind blowing for those of us who bought our gear over a decade ago.

That is quite mental considering my 80's JCM800 Lead cab cost me £50 used!!!

I had a 90s jcm900 4x12 which cost me similar cash. Wish I still had that cab it sounded great. Annoyingly I don't even know what speakers were in it because I didn't care about stuff like that back then.

I would guess Celestion G12T-75's, which is typically what these Marshall JCM800/900/1960A/B cabs come with. They're really great speakers to be honest. Much maligned online, but people are full of shite.

I've always assumed that's what it had and really wish I'd bothered to look. It was a great sounding cab regardless of the crap they get online. Just like the amp really. Turned up to its happy place it sounded fantastic but got tons of hate because it wasn't an 800.

„Eww, that does not sound like a V30! I want everything to sound like a V30! Give me a V30! V30! V30! Aaah!“

How much was the 100 watt Slash head with 4 x 12?

I think we’re all going to be dumbfounded by the new $la$h Magna’Money amp.
I really do.
After the first chord..y’all will duck & run to
the TGP for mercy.
LTFOL man.

 

[Life Eats Life]

There’s actually a Magna Money Ball
in$ide the 4X12 cabinet.
-it’ REALLY i$ about the money.

 

[MirrorProfiles]

those black/chrome early recto’s with the small badge really are fucking great.
