Used is fine as long as it works and isn't butt-ugly. I was interested in half stacks with a slant cab with built-in gain and 2 channels with a 3 band eq for each of em.(Expensive?)
I'm not too sure about the pickups. Can you give me some examples of one vs the other?
Well I really like these guitars, 799 new, and are amazing

Cab wise, you can pick up a used Marshall cab for around 400-500 easy on craigslist ... you absolutely can't go wrong with a solid marshall cab (Avoid the MG / MC and AVT series cabs if you can)
Amp wise go for a Marshall JCM900 / DSL or TSL or JCM 2000... or if you can find one a Mesa single or Duel Recto head ... any of these heads are great choices and are in your price range USED.. new they would be out of it, but used you can get them.... this whole setup would definately push right at the 2,000 budget, but you would get a setup that would be amazing for just about anything.
