Marshall 1960B 4x12" 300W Straight Guitar Speaker Cabinet with Celestion G12T-75 Speakers

The world's first ever 4x12" cab was designed and built by Jim Marshall in 1962, and with it a legend was born. Since then Marshall has made many thousands, which have appeared on stages all over the globe. Following close on the heels of the immediate success of the Marshall 4x12, came the first ever stack - namely, an angle-fronted cab on top of a straight-fronted cab, with an amplifier head placed on top. This came about after discussions with Pete Townshend of The Who. Pete asked Jim to build him an 8x12" cab with an angled front - Jim agreed but warned the guitarist that said cab would be extremely difficult to move. Nevertheless, Pete insisted, so six of these cabinets were built. After being bombarded with complaints from his road crew, Pete returned to Jim to look for a more practical approach to building this wonderful sounding behemoth. "We'll cut the cab in half," was Jim's immediate reply and thus the legendary Marshall stack came into being.

Public reaction to the impressive look and sound of the Marshall stack was increcible form the start and, not surprisingly, it has stayed in production ever since. As a result, this immediately recognizable rock'n'roll icon can be found anywhere that electric guitar is played.

To ensure the ultimate in flexibility, four of Marshall's standard 4x12s are switchable between Mono (4 or 16 ohms) and Stereo (8 ohms per side). The cabs in question are the 1960A (angled), 1960B (straight), 1960AV and 1960BV cabs. The two Mono impedance options provide extra amp matching capabilities, while the cabinets' stereo capability makes them ideal for rack systems which typically run in stereo.

Marshall Amplification 1960B Features:

• All of Marshall's cabinets share the same high quality of design and craftsmanship. Their highest quality woodwork includes the 'finger locking' of each and every joint. This helps give Marshall cabinets the incredible strength and durability which has become as legendary as the Marshall sound itself. A godsend to all gigging guitarists and roadies are the heavy duty castors fitted as standard to all Marshall full size 4x12s to ensure that these cabinets are ready to roll without rocking. Last, but by no means least,you will find no sharp metal edges or rough fittings and those cabinets that feature the smooth ABS plastic Marshall corners offer excellent protection to all 8 of the cabinet corners.
