Legendary Marshall Muscle!
Nothing personifies the image of rock 'n' roll more completely than a wall of Marshall stacks. Though often imitated, nothing compares to the original. The 1960A is the Slant version that features four G12T-75 speakers and is the perfect addition to your stage or recording rig! It's ideal for players who appreciate clarity and quality.

A Marshall 1981A JCM800 Lead Series cabinet from 1981 with somewhat rare 16-ohm Rola Celestion G12-80 speakers. According to Michael Doyle's book "The History of Marshall" these high-powered cabinets (both 1982A and 1982B) came with these speakers only in 1981 and 1982.

The G12-80 speaker model has been discontinued since the late 80's. The speaker went on to become Classic Lead 80, but these Rola period G12-80 speakers shouldn't be confused with the current-production Classic Lead 80 speakers as they sound different - and according to many, better. The G12-80 speaker uses the same low resonance cone that was eventually chosen for the popular Celestion Vintage 30. However, the G12-80 has a lot of edge treatment so it's not particularly a low resonance speaker. Other parts of the G12-80 are the same as in the current Classic Lead speaker. The G12-80 uses a big heavy magnet, so it was one of the more expensive speakers when it was available. According to Dr. Decibel from Celestion, the Rola G12-80 has the same performance specification as the Classic Lead.
