Making a mono 4x12 stereo

I have an opportunity to buy a mono 4x12 with Celestion V60s but I want a stereo cab. Would it be hard or expensive to do this?

Thanks... So basically if it has a single round jack in the back I can either add another or get a little fancier and add a plate to hold two and just rewire? Any recommendations on where to get parts? Thanks!

If it were me, I'd order the marshall plate for the stereo cab and install it in the mono cab and re-wire the speakers. There are "schematics" for the wiring around on the web and you won't have to worry about ordering plates, jacks, switches, etc. separately.

Thanks for the recommendation... Anybody got an opinion on this?

Yes...highly recommended. It is the only stereo option I currently offer on my cabs. You'll need to route/jig saw the rear panel on the cab to accommodate it. Excellent product/great price.
