So I have a Reeves Custom 12, which I absolutely love!!  However, it's not working to it's full potential due to the shitty cab I'm using right now.  I was thinking about getting the mesa boogie rectifier cab, but upon researching the all powerful internet I've discovered that there are better cabs for a lot cheaper.  I thought about getting a TRM cab, but I really don't want to have to do anything to it.  I've heard mixed reviews about the Avatars.  Another cab I had in mind, are the Stone-Age cabs..those look nice!!  I guess I should state that I'm probably gonna get a 2x12.  As far as speakers, I want to have a V30 for some bite and maybe something along the lines of a Fane.  What do you guys think?

He does and they're incredible.  If you go to my band's Facebook page (search: Pardon Me, Doug) you'll see some pics of the cabinet.

^THIS!

I am getting AO to build me one next time I'm down in Maine.  Should be a costly trip, seeing as I bet him a bar tab at Nosh, when it was the Leafs vs Bruins last year.  But a fun trip none the less.

AO does nothing but top notch stuff, still can't put my guitar down.
Current rig: 
Guitars:  AO Koa Venus, Denis Larocque Tele
Effects Board: AO Wheel-->Korg Pitchblack-->CAE M404 Wah-->Pigtronix Fat drive-->TC Electronic Alter Ego Delay-->amp
Amps:  Fender 1972 Twin Reverb
