Misha Mansoor Signature Guitar Cabinet

When designing his signature Invective.120 electric guitar amplifier head, Misha Mansoor and Peavey knew the amp needed a cabinet that would faithfully translate the amp's variety of tonal options. They achieved this goal with the Peavey Invective.212, 2 x 12" cab. Loaded with one Celestion Vintage 30 and one Celestion Creamback, the cab balances warm vintage tones with the cutting mids of the Vintage 30. And the Invective.212 boasts parallel inputs for sending each speaker its own signal. When you grab your Mansoor signature head from Sweetwater, don't forget to match it up with the Invective.212 cab.

Voiced by Celestion

Peavey partnered with Celestion speakers to voice their Invective.212 120-watt 2 x 12" cabinet. They chose to pair a midrange-heavy 60-watt Vintage 30 with the warmer tones of a 60-watt Creamback. When played together, this pairing balances the cut you need for punching through the band with the rounder tones of the Creamback. This is especially beneficial when separately miking each speaker. You're able to blend the signals of both to taste.

Parallel inputs

There are two ways to run the Invective.212 guitar cabinet. You can plug a single input to achieve the full 120 watts at 16 ohms. Step back and you'll hear the full glory of the Vintage 30 and Creamback working together. And the Invective.212 120-watt cabinet features parallel inputs. You're able to run separate signals into each speaker — great for stereo setups as well as wet-dry rigs. In this rig, you'll gain 60 watts from each speaker at 8 ohms.

Peavey Invective.212 120-watt 2 x 12" Speaker Cabinet Features:

  • Misha Mansoor signature 2x12" speaker cabinet
  • Perfect match for Peavey's Invective.120 electric guitar amp head
  • Pairs a Celestion Vintage 30 and Creamback for modern and vintage tonalities
  • Parallel input allows you to run a mono or 2 separate signals
  • Handles 120 watts at 16 ohms
  • Solid pine finger-jointed construction

BEST 2x12 Cab I've Ever Played Through. Now I Have To Get The 4x12.

The Peavey Invective .212 is without a doubt the best 2x12 cab I have ever played through. Great job Peavey, you guys certainly nailed it again with the Invective 120 and the Invective 2x12 and 4x12 cabs. I have been blown away so much by the Invective 2x12 that I am already putting some money aside to get the 4x12 version. Hopefully I will be able to connect with Dave here at Sweetwater and find one available when the holiday season roles around. I had been wanting this amp and cab since I heard it was going to be released several years ago, and ever since I finally got mine earlier this year I have played it every single day and it still never ceases to amaze me. I have recently gotten into home recording so I am looking forward to being able to mic the different speakers up and see what kinds of tones I can create trying that out. I can't say enough about my Invective cab, it's such a killer cab, and while any quality cab sounds good with the Invective 120 head, the Invective 120 and the 212 cab certainly sound noticeably better when they are paired up together as they are meant to be. It's not just the V-30 & Creamback speaker combination that is responsible for making the cab sound as great as it does though, because I have since tried the 2 speakers in 2 other cabs and something about the cab itself (not sure if its the sizing, the materials, the quality construction, or all three combined) is special because it sounds just plain better. If you are going to purchase an Invective amp, or even if you are just looking for a killer 2x12 cab that not only sounds great, but stands on its own away from the crowd of other V-30 filled offerings out there, I would recommend you get ahold of an Invective .212 (or .412) cab. It's impossible to get a bad tone from these cabs.
Music background: 28 years a guitarist and counting. Customize, maintain, and repair gear as well. Recently started to learn about recording/tracking and having fun with that too.
Rated 5/5

This is a unique and great sounding cabinet.

This cab sounds great. It doesn't sound like any other cab I own. The extra deep cabinet design really adds more punch and size than many other 2x12 cabs. The pine construction adds a nice woodiness and more resonance than the Baltic birch does. Also the pine helps with weight. Easy to transport. Rugged despite some claim pine isn't rugged enough to load around and play gigs. I've transported this cab so many times and it's near mint condition still. Really responds well to all my amps but sounds phenomenal with the invective 120 and a Horizon Devices Precision Drive up front. Imagine that. The Creamback H and Vintage 30 really sound great when recorded hard panned left and right. Lots of clarity lots of girth too. The two sound great in a room too. Now is this cab going to please everyone? No. It's a departure from conventional. But it sounds fantastic!

Perfect Blend

This cab sounds so good. Just get it. With a block letter 5150 and a different mic on each speaker, it sounds huge.

Great Cab, Excellent sound

Looked at Bogner with this same speaker config but the price was out of my budget. Also was not impressed with the matching MASSHALL cab that matched my Marshall head so my rep Scott Augustyniak told me about this Peavey Invective cab loaded with a vintage 30 and a Creamback which I was looking for in a 212 cab. I had my doubts (not a big Peavey fan) but went ahead and ordered it. I am more than pleased with this cabinet. Construction is solid and the sound is awesome with clear notes and great bass response. No regrets here. Paired it with my new Marshall SV-20H head and the two are a great match for me. I use it in my small studio and is perfect for my needs. The speaker combo is a great mix for great sound. Who needs a 412 when this 212 is so awesome. More than I had expected, looking for a great 212 cab this might be a great choice, It was for me. Thanks Scott for all your help.

Beautiful, solid, well made cabinet. The blend of the Creamback and the Vintage 30 is excellent, great bottom end and very punchy. Love it. Worth every penny.
