matman Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Hi guys for the past 20 years I have been useing my marshall jubilee ( the silver one) and I love it dearly , but have now decided to retire it before the road ruins it. any way I have just brought a Gallien Kruger 2001RB head which is amazing but I now need some cabs. Am I best sticking to the GK neo range with the bi wire or is there anything else out there that will do my amp justice?? I am trying to get best value and hopefully something lighter in weight than my old Marshalls. Quote
warwickhunt Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Is your cab so precious/rare that it needs to be retired... if it is a cab you are used to and like the tone then why change? You will be able to find quite a few cheaper, lighter cabs but the tone 'will' be noticeably different to what you are used to; in particular the variation in tone if going to Neo loaded cabs! Quote

[/quote] Yeah, I have noticed an airier, hollower, and sometimes boomier tone when using very lightweight neo driven cabs. I thought it was just in my head. My TC RS212 has been a decent compromise for weight and is a great sounding cab. Quote
