NAD/ What cab for V4 that can do keys and all things awesome

[Faldoe]

I picked up this ugly fucking thing for $200. No power tubes - though the dude had some from another amp so we could test it. He bought it with the intention of fixing it but never did. I missed my old V4 and posted a WTB on craigslist. The amp works and powered on but I need to fix her up so I'm going to get new power tubes, redo the filter caps, replace the screen and plate resistors, 3 prong cord, replace so other board components.

I'm looking for a cab - either 4x12 or some other configuration that will be friendly for guitar but also work somewhat well (well enough for not having full range speakers) with keys/synths.

Any suggestions? I'm looking to buy something used and somewhat readily available. I guess that may only leave me with the usual Marshall, Mesa, Orange, etc.

Bass cabs? Mixture of guitar and bass cabs?

Another guy responded to my ad and has a v4. I may get another. MUAHAHAHAHA

Peavey MS412 sometimes come with Celestion G12K-85 speakers which are sorta scooped (bassy). And they are under $200, sometimes. And pretty indestructible.

I think your goal should be getting a cab that you love for guitar. "Good synth tone" has much more leeway for interpretation. If you're not playing synth and guitar interchangeably (meaning you switch off only on completely different songs) you could always switch on a 2nd bassy second amp/cab when it's time to play synth. But that's still a 2nd amp and cab.

Your synth could realistically blow up any guitar cab if you play low notes. So just don't play those notes, maybe? Or get a bass cab with a tweeter for your synth (Peavey? Or Carvins are cheap) and run two different amps.
