BE ADVISED: This 1x12 is no longer listed on Peavey's website as a 'Vypyr' cabinet. It's advertised as a 'ValveKing' cabinet, with a 'ValveKing' speaker. (And with a different logo plate).The speaker, forgive me for my bluntness here, is junk. The highs are brittle and the mids are okay but the bottom end is awful. It breaks up in a not-so-good way. It may improve after a "break-in" period but I don't don't think it'll sound even marginally 'good'. It bears no markings except a sticker that says it is a 'green product'.Now the cab is MDF but appears well made. There is an ample length of wire from the jack to the speaker so you can unhook the wires from the stock speaker without much difficulty when installing a new speaker (which is the only reason to buy this cab).I installed a Celestion Greenback and the cab makes an excellent external cab for my Vox AC4C1-12. (The AC4 is a great amp but the smallish cab and stock speaker don't do it any favors.)A previous reviewer said to be careful when removing the back panel.ABSOLUTELY. There is a small double-sided adhesive strip between the edges of the panel and the cab itself that is used to seal the cab. I used a carpentry tool, sorta like a wide flat chisel, to loosen the grip of this adhesive strip. Take your time or you WILL rip out chunks of the back panel. (MDF isn't a very pliable substance.)So... My bottom line is that for the cost of this and the Greenback speaker I got an excellent cab for my AC4, cheaper than most other… read more 1x12's you'll find so I can only recommend this as a "project" cab for upgrading. One minor note is the 'Peavey' logo plate is easily removed leaving an attractive all black cab that you can use with a great number of heads and or amps.
