Legendary Marshall Muscle!

Nothing personifies the image of rock 'n' roll more completely than a wall of Marshall stacks. Though often imitated, nothing compares to the original. The 1960AV is the angled version that features four 70-watt Marshall G-12 Vintage speakers and is the perfect addition to your stage or recording rig! It's ideal for players who appreciate a lot of low end without all the boom.

To ensure the ultimate in flexibility, the 1960AV is switchable between mono (4 or 16 ohms) and stereo (8 ohms per side). The two mono impedance options provide extra amp matching capability while the cabinet's stereo capability makes it ideal for rack systems which typically run in stereo.

The 1960AV has a thicker, warmer sound than the 1960A with a fat, well-defined midrange and a rounded high end that sparkles nicely without being overly bright. It also has a good low end chunk which never gets boom-y.

Marshall 1960AV Features:

280-watt, 4 x 12" angled cab
4-/16-ohm mono or 8-ohm stereo
Marshall G-12 Vintage speakers - rated at 70 watts
Black grille cloth and white piping
Large white logo
Black elephant grain vinyl

Marshall offers a wide range of cabinets that are not only perfect for your needs, but they will also last you a lifetime!

What is Certified Open Box Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call "Certified Open Box" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

Certified Open Box (also known as a demo) means we’ve had it out of the box for our YouTube channel, displayed at events, tested in our studio, or maybe it was in a customer’s hands for a few days and isn’t ‘factory fresh’ as a result. Every Certified Open Box item we sell has Sweetwater’s 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty and has been tested and verified up to ‘new’ specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it’s in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Certified Open Box item at Sweetwater, you get:

2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!

First off thank you Ian Lemberg for your patience, support and a great deal. The best deal on my price matching quest and was delivered at my door in like 3 days. These speakers deliver a great Vive that makes you keep wanting to play. I have a jvm 410hjs and was playing through 1960a 1960b cabinets full-stack. I decided to try something different and buy another stack put under my Triple X head. When I played them through the jvm it was all over. These are the new number one speakers. Sound was perfect and when I dialed it in to the speaker's even better. That and Ian's service is the reason for the review. They sound great and not even broken in yet. They're not v30s they are Marshall Vintage. I know the v30s very welland for my ears these are better for me. A hard decision between the ax/ BX or the aHW/bhw I'm very happy with my decision now with the av and the bv. For me The Others May put you in the slot of 60s 70s the other ones probably new rock but these speakers will cover it all and very well with great tone. I hope this helps somebody because its real. Rock on from Florida!

*Rated 5/5

Will the real speaker please stand up????

So I notified Sweetwater.... Talk about opening up a can of worms!!!!! I won't bore you with all the dirty details, but after a dozen or so back and forth phone calls, shipping back to Sweetwater the not as advertised cabinet, I received another 4X12 slanted cabinet along with celestion vintage 30 speakers, which I installed myself. They sound absolutely phenomenal!

Yeah, it was somewhat of a hassle of having to deal with the confusion and inconvenience, but the bottom line is I finally having the Marshall cab of my dreams! Also a big thanks to Justin Dunbar and Chuck Surack, who personally got involved to resolve this whole mess of a situation!!!! Great customer service!!!!!

Sounds amazing. I had two speakers swapped to G12H-75s and is sounds MASSIVE. This finished off my Marshall full stack and I couldn't be happier.

From the moment I fired up my JVM410, which up until I got this cab I was running through an Orange 2x12 cab, I was beside myself. I cannot believe the sheer power, clarity and range of sound coming out of this cabinet. IMO this is the perfect all around cab: crystal clear cleans that are bright with chimey highs, tons of low end without mud, and just sheer face-melting power on the gain channels on my JVM. I just can't believe I own this cab; it sounds like my dreams =D

First of all, this cabinet was originally advertised as having Celestion vintage 30 speakers which is why I was so excited to have ordered this cab. While anxiously waiting for the delivery, I found out through my own research that this cabinet doesn't/never had vintage 30 speakers, they're actually marshall/celestion vintage G12 speakers! Totally different speaker/tone!

There are countless "British"-style guitar amplifiers out there, but take it from the lifelong guitarists and tone connoisseurs at Sweetwater, when it comes to Marshall tone, there's nothing like the real thing. We've played them all, from vintage JTM45s and the ultra-cool Plexi reissue to modern handmade masterpieces such as the JVM410. There isn't a model among them we can't recommend with total confidence, and that includes their more affordable models too, like MG, DSL, and Code series amps. Thanks to our tight relationship with Marshall, Sweetwater's always on the cutting edge of their latest designs, custom models, and limited-edition gems. If you want iconic tone from across the pond, you want Marshall, and your Sweetwater Sales Engineer will help you find the perfect one.
