Exciting times, bud! Have you timed your hospital route yet?
I think back to so many pregnancy storylines in British sitcoms....

Haha, not quite

Going to try for a home birth, and if needs be then it will be ambulance all the way.
Next door neighbour is a paramedic and married to a nurse so that could be handy!

Lopo Line makes nice 1x12 extension cabs for a much more reasonable price. You might also be able to snag a used Avatar or Mojotone Musical cab for less $$$.

None of those can be bought in England, which is clearly where I live. You can tell by the teeth.

Not new, perhaps, but I see used Lopo Line and Avatar cabs now and again on Ebay.

Exactly.
Played the HB 112 last night at rehearsal and it sounded purty good to be honest, a little lack of bass compared to the 2x12" which is obvious but overall it handled the rock tones really well. JCM800 looked like a muffin top hanging over both sides though bringing lols from the bandmates.

Marshall Haze cab has a Celestion. Tried it out. Thinking about picking up the Haze 40w combo:

Hmm. This thread got me looking at the 2x12s. Harley Benton £105.00, tempting.

Noirie- I usually use a Marshall JCM 2000 DSL401, but it lacks low end Oooomph.
