V3 vs. Legacy cabs

[tongueofcolicab]

on the carvin site, there seems to be no apparent difference between the V3 cab with the vintage 30's and the Legacy cab with vintage 30's. can anyone ellaborate?

I thought the V3's came with G12T-75's.

EDIT: My mistake, I see they have the V3's with V30's now. It would seem that the difference is just cosmetic to me.

One is Steve Vai approved, therefore more expensive. I think there are some other differences too that are explained in the Carvin catalogue.

no apparent differences. both v 30 equipped cabs come $539.99

Funny, if I recall correctly, when the Legacy series first came out, they specifically stated that Vai's speaker of choice was 25w Celestion "Greenbacks".

I guess the times are a changin'

It's funny because if I was going for a sound that I'd consider to be "Vai-ish", I'd go with Greenbacks over V30s without a second thought.
