Does anyone know what a 1970's Carvin 4x12 guitar cabinet That used to belong to "Jeferson Starship" with the origanal celestion greenbacks in it might be worth?

Id say around 250 dollars. Carvins arent an expensive cab to begin with. Before I bought it I would definitely plug an amp in and see how the speakers sound. Green Backs are great speakers, but that cab is 35 yrs old. Your profile says you are into metal, you might want a higher power speaker. Green Backs to me are more classic rock sounding than Lamb Of God. Thats just my 2 cents.

There might be a premium since the Starship had it for someone.

I recently purchased a a 4x12 Mesa for 400 dollars. It looks like brand new and has V-30s in it.

Good Luck and in the end the only thing that matters is how a cab sounds.

Ooh f**k, original greenbacks?

Wow, to the right person it's worth some change.

Only problem are as good as those greenbacks can sound, they are super easy to destroy.

If I were you, I would remove the greenbacks and stick some crap equivalent in the cab and THEN dump the cab.

Then get a Marshal Cab, preferably a decent one, and drop the greenbacks in it. Then you either keep the new cab that sounds like gold or sell it for top dollar.
