just bought a laney klipp clone
any cab recommendations? as the title implies, priorities are: wide, cheap and old
I'd jump for a beat, empty 1x15 if it popped up on CL

I think a lot of people have things that they aren't actively selling but will sell if prompted.
When I was looking for a 215 or 2 115s I put a "Want to Buy" ad up on CL and
within a day I had 4 or 5 offers. I ended up with a Peavy 215 for $125.
Maybe give that a try?

Did you buy it off eBay?

MEC's got the right idea. I was going to recommend a Peavy even. Their older stuff is decent and cheap.

2x15s are plentiful if you ask around.
Everybody's got one if you're willing to move it and pay a bill for it.

Sometimes you can get 'em for free if you're willing to show up and "get rid of it."

The old Traynor cabs are big and awesome and usually pretty cheap.

I almost went after that too. It looked fucking sweet. Let's hope it is!

Unloaded Earth Sound 2x15, do I dare? Inside I know that'd be too much cab for me but its tempting

Dare.
If you want wide, cheap, and old..you're not picking the exact size or characteristics!

If the price is right, I'd say DOIT!
