This thing is great if you like 1x15 combos. It has great sound and is constructed like a great amp should be. For a 1x15 combo, it rocks and is less than the head and a cab separate.

Unfortunately, if you are going for a high end combo, you might as well get a half stack. It would be more versatile in the future. By getting a b2 head and a 1x15 cab, you have the option to throw a 4x10, 2x10 or whatever between the head and cab. Right now, if I felt like puttin another 15 in my rig, that would work, but a 410 inder a 15? Does that work?

This thing would benefit greatly with a horn especially for slapping. It is a very good amp though and ampeg has never let me down.
