Ridiculously loud drummer simply drowned everything out.
Totally awful sound.

Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
We use deps fairly regularly, and I also dep fairly regularly, and really it goes unsaid but one of the shabbiest things a band can do is to not provide a depping musician with a decent monitor mix that suits their needs.
Now, I've been on the receiving end of this, but, to my shame, also on the dishing-out end (in my defence, I don't normally operate the PA and it's been on occasions where the person who normally does the sound isn't present...that's no excuse though *hangs head*)....
So, a "note to self" and a plea to others too: respect your deps!
Opening the cab at the back could help too - Ritchie Blackmore did that with his! I think just with the top cabs in the stack. You can clearly see the cab has no back when he throws one into the crowd at the California Jam gig . You can just leave the jack plate loose if you want to try it, I think it will go through the hole without needing to undo the connections.

You won't need a soldering iron on modern Marshall cabs, the speakers should be connected with push tags. All you should need is a screwdriver.
The only things you really need to watch for are that you keep the connections on the correct + and - terminals or you'll end up with a speaker out of phase, and not to put the screwdriver through the cone!

Well ICBM...you pushed me into it...Sat morning had me with screwdriver in hand taking the two cabs apart. Once I got over the apprehension and removed the first speaker I realised it was actually a simple job. After I finished I tested the 1936 cab ...and it still worked . Result. Then I finished off the 1960 cab and tested that which also worked ...result. Then I had quite a long play with the new set up as loud as I could in the house and it really does sound better. Can't wait to try it out at our next gig. The strange thing is though when I practiced yesterday with the 1936 cab I'll swear that sounded better too. Explain that if you can? Possibly that the cab was designed for the G12's in the first place? Another thing I also found out is that the 1936 isn't pine which is rather disappointing especially when you look at the price of the new ones with V fitted which is around £500 !
Anyways thanx ICBM !
