Don't know anything about when this baby was made. Features? Simple: 2x12 closed back cabinet with an input for your (power)amp. =)
The seller said that it's loaded with Celestion stock 70's. I haven't opened it yet so I can't be sure about that..we shall see in the future..Have to give it a 10 cuz there ain't nothing more I could ask from a cabinet =)

I play this cab with my Jackson KE3R w/EMG81 and EMG 85. The effects and that sort of stuff come from my POD 2.0 and the cabinet is powered with my Fender Frontman 15R combo. Believe me, 15w is enough to blow a hole into your wall so don't laugh =)
This cab suits my playing style well cuz I want a fat bottom end and a good definition even with hi-gain settings. The sound is very good, even though I had to fiddle with the middle and treble cuz the sound would get too harsh or something =) The only thing to complain about is that when I play high notes they break up pretty fast so can't talk much about sustain. Luckily this problem won't come up very often cuz I don't play songs that have long bends from higher frets.
If the highs wouldn't break, this baby would get a 10. But it is a very good sounding thing after all so don't hesitate buying it!

Bought it used so I can't say how long it has been in use, but looks and feels sturdy enough. I think I can give it a 10 cuz there ain't much stuff that could break except for the Celestions.

I have been playing for about three years, and have tried some Marshalls and stuff, but I wanted something to fit my bedroom and a Marshall 4x12 would have been a bit too much... I also didn't like the sound of the Marshall 2x12 so I decided to get the Ibanez.
