Can anyone recommend me a cab for a MM HD-130

Looking for a cab, 1 or 2 12's too fit my Music Man HD-130 head. This is primarily for guitar playing purposes. I'm not really knowledgable on the rules of ohms and watts. But I want something that can handle the power of the HD-130, but also have a nice Trey Anastasio-ey touch. I'm not looking for cream of the crop, trying to keep the cost of this down, but I want bang for buck.
 
Depends on what you want out of the guitar tone.
I like open back guitar cabs for small stages which will not work well for bass.
If it has to do both and be cheap, I suggest a used 2x12 bass cabinet like an Avatar or a GK.
 
Well I suppose I should clarify that I already pump this through a Music Man 212-RH bass cab. Which as anyone who's seen one knows, is gigantic. I'm looking to have something smaller.

how does 1 12 compare to 2?

do 2 60w speakers make a 120w cab?

I wont be pushing this amp to it's full power at all how much power does the cab need to be able to handle?
