Manufacturer’s Description for Marshall 1960A Angled Guitar Speaker Cabinet (300 Watts, 4×12 in.)
The Marshall 1960A
is the only choice for serious musicians. Nothing compares to Marshall
cabinets in terms of awesome tone and projection. Both visually and
aurally, the Marshall 1960A cab is indeed “the business.”
Great
sound and looks however are not everything. Many years of experience
mean that Marshall’s speaker cabinets are also built to stand the test
of time. Their highly skilled craftsmen construct them from the finest
quality materials with precision corner locked joints, tough cotton
backed PVC covering, heavy-duty hardware, and the highest quality
fittings.
The Marshall 1960A and the Marshall Stack
If
one thing personifies the image of rock ‘n’ roll more than anything
else it’s the Marshall 1960A. Though often imitated, nothing compares
with the original. The first 4×12 cab was designed and built by Jim
Marshall in 1962. Since then they have made many thousands, which have
appeared on stages both large and small all over the world.
After
the initial success of the Marshall 4×12, it wasn’t too long before
they designed and built the first stack, where an angled cabinet sits on
top of a straight fronted cab, with the amplifier placed on top. This
came about after discussions with Pete Townshend of The Who. Pete and
Jim Marshall sat down and discussed The Who’s requirements for an 8×12
cab with an angled top. This was designed and built, but due to this
awesome cab being somewhat cumbersome, only 6 were ever made.
As a
result, we came up with the more practical idea of stacking an angled
cab on top of a straight fronted model. Thus the famous Marshall stack
was born. What happened to the six 8×12 cabs do we hear you ask? Well,
two went to Pete Townshend, two went to John Entwhistle and the
remaining two went to the Small Faces. The Marshall stack, on the other
hand, has stayed in production ever since and has gone on to become the
most recognizable rock ‘n’ roll icon.
As Marshall invented the stack, Marshall 4×12’s are the only true originals. Everything else is merely an imitation.
The
Marshall 1960A is switchable from mono [4 or 16 Ohms] to stereo [8 Ohms
per side], and is equipped with Celestion G12T-75 speakers.
The
highest quality woodwork includes the “corner locking” of each and every
joint. This helps give Marshall cabinets the incredible strength and
durability, which has become as legendary as the Marshall sound itself.
Heavy-duty
Grab Handles are fitted to all Marshall cabinets. Their tough,
ergonomic recessed casing design gives easy access to the bar of the
handle without affecting the cabinet’s smooth lines.
No sharp
metal edges or rough fittings – the smooth ABS plastic Marshall corner
fits perfectly and offers excellent protection to all 8 cabinet corners.
