If you allready have 5150, Orange Rockverb & marshall JCM 900 I really don't see why you have to spend the bucks on another head........ Get some decent cabs!!
Good luck!

please note: I don't own a JCM900...I rented one just to try it out...I liked it but wanted to get a group opinion as to whether this could be pulled off.

I have a fender tele American standard. and a Gibson Les Paul studio.

I do have two Cabs - I own a Marshall 1960 A

and also an Orange 4x12 with v30s.

that should do the trick? but the orange and 5150 are just not getting the right kick for the pop/punk stuff.

like I said the peavey works awesome for hardcore bands and bands who desire a heavier tone...
