Now, I know I've gone on about my love of a particular combination of speakers in a 2-12 cab in a number of threads in this forum on a number of occasions, that being the G12H30 in combination with either the Vintage 30 or the Greenback, as is the common combination in stock Matchless cabinets. And recently I've spouted off a couple different times about how good the Z Wreck sounds with this combination of 12's. And it does sound great through that cab. However, tonight I was sitting and picking kinda quietly at home with this Z Wreck through said cab, when I suddenly decided to run it through another Z cab I own, one with two G12 Blue Bell speakers - like the Bulldog speakers one figures to run a Vox AC30 through. .......... I gotta say: wow!!!!! For some reason, tonight it hit me, those speakers sound great! Kinda got a light break up and compression and glassy high/mids that is simply killer! May I also point out that Benttop Steve has, on numerous occassions tried to tell me just this very thang about how good these speakers sound in a 2-12 cab, but old Mr. Inflexible here would hear none of it, and yet tonight I hear you loud and clear, my man! What a fool I've been. And this combination has been right here under my nose all along, quietly and patiently waiting for it's chance to sing out and prove it's worth to the Doubting Thomas of a bullheaded player right here in the same household. Best part is, I got a gig tomorrow night with the Skin N Bone Band and I'm gonna give this Z Wreck a run for its money through this Blue Bulldog cab and see how it sounds live. I'm guessin' it's gonna sound PFG, pretty - good. How much fun is that, eh? Way fun.
In all truthfulness, eating my past words ain't so bad, cause the sound is so good.

i'm saying, these words go down easy when eaten with a 50's dogged up Tele. More like eatin' dessert than eatin' crow!
