There is absolutely no reason to get rid of a Peavey XXX cab; they're built very well and are reasonably sized. They also have a naked lady in the corner. :flex:

I'd look at changing your speakers before buying a new cab. WGS British Leads are Celestion Classic Lead copies. You can go in a hundred different tonal directions by changing even two of those out for something different. It's also a more cost-effective way of gear-whoring into the speaker realm - you could buy two pairs of new speakers for maybe $250-300 new and have 3 or 4 different tones to try by speaker swapping.

What are you trying to achieve (what's wrong with your tone)?

Also, I personally loved the Peavey Sheffield XXX 12" speakers that were in my combo. They just did a lot of things right and didn't lack in any particular area. Chimey cleans, firm low end, articulate mids, yadda yadda. Can't comment on how they will sound with a Roadster or for your tonal goals, but they definitely do not have the upper-mid cut of a V30; they're a bit more even-sounding. :2c:

I think Dave prefers his sag to come from his pickups, vs. from a looser cab sound. :shrug:

I thought it was just from too many people farting in your face all the time. :rofl:

Oh shit. :lol:

Try buying a couple of V30s, put them in opposite corners so you have an "X" pattern. Should add some cut to your cab, and they have plenty of bass on their own so you won't get thinned out.

This idea definitely has my attention :yesway:

:yesway: The Classic Lead 80 is no slouch in the midrange department, but nothing cuts like a V30. Also, your WGS copy is a "worn in" version of a CL80 based on their description, so it might have a relaxed top end that you're missing.

Someone help with Eminence speakers... something like a Man-o-War would also fill this bill, yes?
