Received my cabinet and speaker today from Marsh Amplification and finished assembly of the amp this evening. This is the Marsh Tweed Champ cabinet with the 10" speaker baffle upgrade, and has a lacquer finish ($30 upcharge). Went with that because the plain one was going to be out of stock for a month, and I was too impatient to wait that long to finish the amp! Gotta admit it sure is purty, though! The speaker is a Weber Sig 10AS (alnico, 8 ohm). Had to pop the dust cap off the clear the 6V6 tube, but that was easily done. Just starting to break in the speaker, obviously, but it already sounds great. This is just a beautifully round, sweet sounding little amp. The 10" speaker definitely gives it a much better bottom end than an 8", even if it's not true to vintage specs. In my world, when it's tone vs. authenticity, tone wins every time.
