Some of you may have seen my post in the classifieds, anyway, I have gone from an Orange 2x12 cab to 2 Orange 1x12 cabs.
I'm going to open one up and make it open-backed. Bit more versatile, as I can now run 2 amps if I want.
And I think it looks cool as fuck
Mini Orange Stack.
So I have gone from this:

I love orange cabs, even if they are expensive, they look the tits.

and heavy
good score thom, bet it makes quite some difference in sound (i presume it seems 'louder' too since one of the speakers is higher now) but also a bit more portable eh
sometimes i wish i could trade my ampeg 410 for an orange 212 somehow

Yeah totally, it does make a difference - probably a little less bottom end, but also is clearer because of the higher speaker. Need to break the speakers in to get a proper picture.
Got my first practice with a new band next week so is ideal timing!
And the portability is one of the reasons I did it, so much easier on my back! No more banging into the walls on my stairs!

I would totally do that if Marshall made a 1x12" as wide as my head.

I'd settle for Marshall making a 2x12 that doesn't cost the same thing as having your entire life gold-plated.

In England they're really reasonable, like £215.

AH I know I forgot again. Poetic Justice for UK-dwelling guitarists.

We get fucked on Fenders though. Luckily I find Fender amps incredibly boring in the large.
