    Hi, I have a Celestion Gold in my 1x12 Mav - very nice! Then I run into a 2x12 extension cab loaded with G12H Heritage speakers - awesome !!

    New Maverick Owner with questions!

    Mav 1x12 owner here - first off, my experience is that you have to be REALLY careful with the treble and mid controls on the lead channel. These can get really nasty!
