    Nice, which reminds me about the 2 X 12 speaker cab I want to build for my Peavey Renown, what speaker do you reckon you'll put in the 1 X 12 cab?

    I went with a Celestion Greenback. I asked a mastering mate who is friends with a custom amp/speaker guy and he said to keep away from the Classic, Vintage and G1275's Clestions. He mainly uses Jensen Falcons in bigger rigs but I'm only using the little Orange Micro

    I thought you said you had a Celestion Greenback Dedman, should sound great !

    Those Orange Micro amp heads still sound pretty good for their size !

    Here you go Dedman might help you decide which speaker to put in your cab.

    Personal favourites are the Reignmaker and the Govenor.
    But need to listen on something other than my iPad.

    Good choice, I think those were used in lots of early Marshalls like the JTM45 Bluesbreaker, you should get a good sound with that.

    Just out of curiosity, are any of you guys interested in me doing a write-up for a tutorial on making DIY guitar leads?, I've been thinking of doing one where I show you how I make my own custom guitar leads.
