The only ones Marshall do are either the 1922 or the 1936. Both are exactly the same using the same speakers Celestion GT12-75 but the 1936 is bigger and heavier.
You could try somebody like Zilla who will make you what ever you want........... for a price.
Second hand Ebay can be very good on cabs.

^ you're talking about cabs.

Possibly the VS265? Not in production any more, but shouldn't be too difficult to track down used.


I question the value of a 2x12" for home use, but I'm not going to argue with you.

Yeah thats it vs 265 i palyed on one years ago and liked it.
Cant see any second hand had a nose on egay Seen a few other similar but need to get upto speed with things.

I had a peavey express 112 for years and fancy something different hence the 2x12

I have been having a nose around to see whats available in my price range which is about 200 squid for somethin secondhand i have seen a vs 265 but its miles away but before i jump in i seen a fender frontman 2x12 dont know much about em though.

Might be worth stickin to the Marshall as i played on one before.
I play a bit of Metallica Megadeth stuff really but i like to mess round with different stuff too if that helps.

Try AVT 275, this was a later version of the VS265 and had on board basic delay etc, more likely to find them on e-bay.

Can I ask why you are looking for one of those in particular? As previously mentioned if you are looking for something for just home use then I would look at something much smaller.
If you are just sticking to home use and want great metal tone get a very low wattage valve amp and drive its gain channel with an OD pedal.....this will give you an ultimate sound - will beat the valvestate sound handsdown!
