bbgun77 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 im looking to buy spider 4 hd150 head and have a chance to pick up the 4x12 VS cab with the vintage 30's pretty cheap. i was wondering if mixmatching this head with another cabinet besides the cab that its speakers were specifically designed for would be considered "trying to reinvent the wheel." or is the cab with the better wood and vintage 30's considered a significant upgrade. so, stick with the suggested set up or deviate a bit but within the same product line prossibly maximizing tone? .

cruisinon2 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 You're thinking too much. "Upgrade" is a subjective term. If you think the cab with the vintage 30s sounds better than the other one, then its an upgrade. If you hate it, not really an upgrade no matter how much "better" it looks on paper. Years ago I bought a Rectifier cab, based on little more than Boogie's reputation, and a couple of friends who liked them. Hated the thing...couldn't get a decent tone out of it no matter what I did...and it cost twice as much as my old Marshall 4x12 that is now 30+ years old and still sounds great. Play it first...with YOUR guitar. If you like it, you've got a new toy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
