Some advice needed

Long and short looking to purchase my first amp in 15 or so years.

In an ideal world i want a 6505/6505+ but i don’t have 1k plus to shell out on one right now and the 120w may be a little bit overkill.

I have found something that may be a great option for me

The story is it is a 6505+ 112 combo 60w that has been modded to remove the speaker element and turn it into its own stand alone head.

Would there be any immediate red flags for this would there be a reason someone would do this (aside from aesthetic reasons as we all know how the prowess of the head and cab looks as opposed to a small combo looks)

In the sellers words “ the speaker that came in the combo was notoriously bad hence the modification”

Would you not just run the amp into a 412 cab instead?

Is this a modification that others have done?

My main concern is that would this hugely affect the tonal qualities?

Thank you for time and any help in advance.

Took the plunge and bought a guitar after me and some pals got together and refused to let being 30+ get us down found this beauty on ebay for £200,it still had the tag on it! Going for a set up soon in drop A and will eventually put some nicer higher output pick ups in ideally want to stick with passive (cba having to undo the back plate to switch batteries out)

Any suggestions… SEVEN STRING NEXT
