i'm not to familiar with the classic lead 80's, but i play vintage 30's and g12t-75's criss-crossed in both my 4x12's.
the v30's are what's in the mesa recto cabs as well as many other top of the line cabs. pretty good lows, but they're very mid rangey and and have a sweet breakup, which i think helps compensate for scooped mids if you use them. plus they're very sufficiant speakers and can get really loud even from low wattage heads. 60w handling.
g12t-75's are what marshall 1960 cabs have in them.. very tight and powerful low end and crisp highs with less mids and cone breakup than the v30's, giving them the natural scoop sound from the speakers which i think sounds great for compensating with mid rangey marshall style heads. 75w handling.
i got both so they could complement each other and they do very nicely, where the v30's are lacking the g12t-75's are well equiped, and where the g12t-75's are lacking, the v30s are well equiped.
smart choice with avatar. i think they sell v30s for the same price as g12t-75's.
