Cab colours.

When I ordered a cab from Matamp I stuck with black, but went for a leather look tolex rather than the usual Marshall type. It looks very smart

That's a very good reminder actually : I had a Matamp 2x12 (diagonal 2x12 - looked like a mini 4x12 at first glance) and it was STUNNINGLY good. Worth considering.

Zilla Studio Pro incoming.

It's an overstock one, so I didn't even ask what colour it was. I might be surprised...!

Nice one, what speakers are you going for?

fretmeister

Creambacks.

Paul was great with advice for the cab type and the speaker choice.

Superb choice, and yes Paul is super helpful.

Spangly pink with lime green cloth then? Lovely!

fretmeister

I can make that work.

And I probably won't have to insure it for theft either!

If you do want a spare cab in blue sparkly tolex I've got one (baffle cut for 2x10) that needs to go...

fretmeister

Wouldn't that clash with the spangly pink?

When's it coming?  I ordered an overstock from Paul last summer and it was an orange finished Fat Boy 2x12, but had no cloth piping or speakers at the time.  So he asked me what I wanted - which was Creambacks, salt and pepper and blackpiping and I told him no hurry.  Next day the courier delivered it.  I know people recommend a lot of businesses but I have never dealt with someone straighter and more deserving of recognition than Paul.  Top, top guy.

You'd really stand out on stage... Colour blocking is terribly in. I imagine.

I went for dark green- I think Zilla calls it 'black on green'.

It doesn't look out of place with a black head on it but is a bit individual.

I went for that too - some 7 years ago now.

It's on the way - It's black taurus with the check grill cloth - much like an old Marshall.

I'm secretly disappointed it's not Blue Sparkle, but I can always add LEDS or something.
