Quality product and a good base for a custom cab
Changed the speakers to G12H Creambacks, did a open back conversion and changed the grill cloth to something more classy. Now it's a really great cab!

Standard 2x12, celestion loaded cab. The slightly bigger cabinet gives a little more depth to the sound and, as always, completely bomb and bandproof.

In the video "SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL - RUSSIAN GRIZZLY IN AMERICA (GUITAR PLAYTHROUGH BY JACK SIMMONS)" on YouTube by Alex Terrible, Jack Simmons can be seen using a Marshall 1936V guitar amplifier cabinet. This is identifiable by the specific placement of the Marshall inscription and the lighter color of the case compared to the similar-looking Marshall JVMC212, which has a darker case.
According to page 5 of "Marshall Law: The Marshall Magazine for Musicians And Marshall Players" Issue #5, April 2000, with regards to touring with Jamiroquai, "Guitarist Simon Katz used a Marshall rack set-up for their last world tour, featuring two JMP-1s into two EL34 100/100 power amps. His cabinets were 2x12 model 1936, finished in black 'Levant' covering with 'salt 'n' pepper' fret cloth and loaded with Marshall/Celestion Vintage 30 speakers."
