80's Rocker
New Member
Alright, so I have a JCM 800 from '86 and a 1960 cab which I think is stock from 2003. I get a pretty good 80's metal sound out of this combo...which is fine...but I have moved away from wanting that kind of sound...plus when I really crank it...it starts to sound too harsh and modern for anything classic...
I am about to pull the trigger on a new guitar but after that I want to possibly get a new amp, cab or both...mainly I want an old 60's amd 70's type crunch...
Think...

now I don't expect you guys to click on all of those lol but you get the idea. My main question is would I benefit more from buying a Marshall Plexi or...should I maybe get a new cabinet? I know speakers have a ton to do with tone and...2003 stock 1960A cab?...I am thinking like guitar sounds from before Van Halen came out...let me know what you guys think!
