What a total bummer. I can't believe I have to do this since it just got here YESTERDAY, but it DOESN"T FIT IN THE VAN!!!
:crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:

Los Blancos packs a lot of gear into the big blue monster (we call her "Thirsty") and with the current deal containing a leslie cab and a full club PA with lights, we just don't have the space for me to fit this and still have room for a mandatory second cab. A tip from yer Uncle the Road Dog: When touring have 2 of EVERYTHING.

I just got this for $250 shipped from TBer johnmark and it is exactly as he described it. Aside from some very mild impressions in the top from having a head on it (must have been an svt or 400+, lol). Other than that is is as new. Here is the description from johnmark that sold me. It sounds even better than I expected on the low B and I'm sure given the space I would keep this around awhile!

Avatar B212 8ohm cab that I just got brand new just 2 months ago. Dave told me it was one of the very last ones with the Eminence Delta LF speakers, and as such can handle 1000 watts RMS. It is an 8 ohm cab.
Save @ $100 off the cost of a new one shipped, and get twice the RMS handling!
This cabinet is like brand new--you probably won't even find a hair in the carpet. Never been out of my basement since I got it about 2 months ago. I've played through it (at relatively low volume) about 8 times. It looks exactly like: http://www.avatarspeakers.com/pictures/B212nohole.jpg


The only thing different than johnmark's deal, is that it has now been played a ninth time this morning in my living room. :bassist:

$250 shipped to the 48

I am also open to trades for single 12 cabs, or a linear (side-by-side, not diagonal) 212 that weighs around the same or less than the Avatar delta, which is about 64lbs. All plus/minus cash, I'm ready to be flexible.

I concur, this cabinet is like brand new!

Sorry you can't stowe it in the band van, bigfatbass!

It's killin' me! I tried to rearrange the pack in the van for 2 hours and just can't squeeze the damn thing in there and still fit a back-up.

Thanks Chef!
No firm offers yet, but I have three official "maybe soons", with BassSurfer with the tentative "hold" lead as the first one to PM me about it, lol.

If possible, I'd still like to free up the space before the holiday company, but it won't change my life all that much if it's still here for a little bit.

It's all good, just wants a good cab to finds a good home.



Did I remember to mention that this thing sounds fuggin' HUGE?
