Head or Cab?????

[richedie]

Hey guys, I am in a jam. Not sure which way to go. Never been a big combo guy but I must admit, having the ability to grab a combo and run would be cool. I can't decide to get the SR combo or head. Right now I have a Bogner Shiva head and PWE head.
Current cabs are Bogner OS212, Stone Age 212C and THD 212. I have plenty of cabs so it seems to make sense to get the SR head. My compact THD is 45 lbs and that with a head, probably just as easy as the combo to move.

However, I have to admit, for most clubs, I imagine the combo and extension 112 would sound huge.

But, I have always wanted a cab with Greenbacks so I was hoping to get a closed back 212 with high powered Greenbacks, and that means, I should get the head.

Go combo and get a amp stand 30$ that sets it at a slight angle or what I'm going to do get a 1x12 extension cab!!

I'd take the combo.

Thanks guys, but more I think about it, I will be going for the head....since I am looking to order a custom built MojoTone oversized 212 with Celestion Creambacks, plus I like mixing and matching heads and cabs!

In the end I am not a fan of the look and sound from combos plus I have a love afair with the look of a head and cab.
I am ordering the head also since I have a lot of money invested in some sweet cabs. I am ordering the head to kok like a Plexi, except I want silver instead of gold. Also having a guy build me a custom diagonal 212 cab with black tolex and sweet looking old school Marshall checkerboard grill! I like having lots of heads and cabs to mix and match depending on mood!

It is official, getting the SR head in the black and silver Plexi package and the black Splawn 212, with Celestion Creambacks.

After reading up on the competition, I may get that over the Streetrod! Sweet sounding amp, just missing the clean channel but no big deal.
