pro jr. for marshall 4x10???

[mewithoutus]

ok, ive been trying to trade my marshall 4x10 for a while now. i wanted to trade up for a fender or epiphone guitar. i havent bee using the marshall cuz i dont have a head for it (or the funds to get one) and i love my peavey anyway.


well, someone emailed me today and offered to trade his new fender pro jr for my marshall. what do you guys think? good deal? im not sure...

[mjet]

Which model 4x10 is it? 1965A? 1965B? Something else?

[mewithoutus]

1965b. the straight front. i love the cab, but it just sits around...

You obviously need to buy a bassman or something put into that marshall. I don't suggest you get the pro jr for serious sounds, although it doesn't sound bad.

[mewithoutus]

ahhhhh. how am i gonna get a bassman? im broker than anything! and im in debt to the city of hayward for a fix it ticket, the bank, and i need to save up for a car!

crap.

[StevenO]

Sounds like you need a Mentos.

ahhhhh. how am i gonna get a bassman? im broker than anything!

Sell the cabinet? 

[mewithoutus]

haha. well, i decided not to go with the pro jr. basically i may have a chance of trading my marshall straight up for a fender super reverb. yeah. from 1994. does anyone have any info on these?

i played one similar to this at a guitar shop in santa cruz and i wanted one bad. if this deal goes through, i may shit myself.

There's a guy on the FDP selling a 1965a cab for $325, just to give you some idea of the current value. I've seen others go for around the same money. Mine has the light-colored grille cloth which I think looks fab, and it's a light cab as well. I think a Pro Jr. might be undercutting yourself a bit financially - a Super Reverb would be a better grab.

[mewithoutus]

yeah i agree. dont you think a super reverb is a little out of my league for a straight up trade? i mean, if this guy is down im all for it, i would love to own that beautiful amp, but i dunno. i feel like us 1965 owners are getting the shaft on how much these things are valued at anyway. i mean, a marshall 4x10? lighter than a 4x12? with 4 celestion gt35 (amazing sounding speakers)? i feel like its kind of a joke the value of these cabs.

oh well, if it lands me a super, there will be no complaining from here!!!

[mjet]

Did you say that the Super Reverb was from 1994? That should be nice!

[mewithoutus]

yeah it is. did you get those pictures from craigslist? it looks just like that.

[mjet]

I didn't get them there - those are from the Fender Field Guide:

I suspect the Craig's List seller pulled the same ones.

[JazzBlaster]

a Super is worth way more than a Cab, be careful though things that sound to good to be true are!

[mewithoutus]

gah i knew it was too good to be true. he pulled out. wah wah.

if i could just sell this cab i could have enough cash to buy it outright, but dammit no one wants these anymore. except for the dude with the pro jr.
