Bergantino, Epifani, Ashdown, Aguilar Starting over sale

This is NOT a fire sale

Thanks to TB and my endless GAS fuel, I have tried and accumulated many cabs. I think I that I have finally found what I want, and am going to downsize my rig. I was playing in many bands where I had stuff all over in different storages and rehearsal spaces. I recently grabbed everything back and decided I have too much stuff. I am keeping my Epi UL112 stack, and my 70s SVT. I will be selling the rest and hopefully buying something else.

First off
Bergantino HT322 with padded cover
This cabinet needs no introduction. Great cab in excellent condition. It has a ever so slight indentation in the top carpet from my amp case when I had a house gig over 4 days. It is very minor. Please see the pics.

$800.00

Next, I have TWO
Ashdown ABM410H 8 ohms each
These cabs are very underrated. Right now musicians friend has these cabs for $699.00 each.

My "H" stands for horn and the current "T" stands for tweeter to my knowlege.
I toured with this summer of 2003 and they served me well. Considering the amount of road time, they are in good condition. A couple of scratches here and there in the tolex. I challenge anyone to find a better 4x10 at the price that I am selling these for. These are very heavy duty, and made with higher quality wood than the ones today. If weight were not a factor, I wuold use this setup exclusively. The tone of these babies with my Aguilar DB359 is my best sounding rig. It's HUGE tone.

$315.00 each, or $570 for both

Another cab that needs no introduction
Epifani UL410
This cab is in excellent condition and has hardly been gigged. It is 4 ohm. Unfortunately, it received a severe ding in my garage. If it were not for the ding, it could pass for floor model new. The coin pictured is a US nickel. It's been gigged so little that the warranty card is still attached.

$SOLD

Aguilar DB410 4 ohms in classic black
I really like this cab. It has a midrange bump, but I really like it with my DB359. I don't really mind if this doesn't go.

$SOLD

SWR Son of Bertha Cab 8 ohm
This is such an underrated cab. I love it as a full range standalone. It comes with a SWR cordura slip cover.
$300 OBO

I would prefer to deal locally in Southern California, but if not buyer pays shipping costs.

FOR TRADE. I will consider
Bergantino NV610
Sadowsky SA410
Epifani Series II UL410
Thunderfunk 550B

I can't believe the ashdowns didn't sell within an hour ... if I in any way needed another big rig I'd grab them. Thats a whole lot of thunder for $500!!!

I've heard from lots of people that they're great cabs, in fact the TBer (who is a pro player) that I bought my Bergantino HT310 from was using Ashdowns exclusively.

Thanks T- Right back atcha!
I came so close to buying your TF550B, but I want to downsize before I pick anything else up.

Thanks for showing us that we can perform good deeds everyday. We'll keep your daugther's classmate in our thoughts.

Yeah Dave,
I had these in storage for over two years, and when I pulled them out, I said "WOW!" These used to be powered by an ABM500 and it was thunderous. They sound even better with the DB359. Surprisingly, even a modern tone sounds good with these.

Like I said in the post, if weight and size weren't a factor, I would use this stack over anything in my arsenal.

P.S. The aggie 410 still rocks! I'm not trying too hard to sell that one. Still using the 412?

+1 on these Ashdown cabs. I own one and IMO, the 410H cabs blow the newer model Ashdown 410 cabs away!...Tight and punchy, with a very defined "point"...my drummer loves this cab as well!

Yeah, I know the older ones are made better. Please don't make me regret putting them up on the block.

Hey funky,

I have 2 UL112's so I don't really have an interest in the 212. However, for all involved, the UL212 is louder and apparently deeper than 2 Ul112's stacked together. I'm not sure why.
Bass jam is possible later. I have a bunch of Aggie stuff so we need to find someone to do a shootout with Genz Benz, Epi, ea and Glock with. For your price, I can't believe the 212 hasn't sold. Isn't it the same new price as the UL410?

peace,
Al

albass111 · #12 05-27-2007, 08:20 PM

Okay, I really can not believe the Ashdowns are still here. For that price, you leave one at your rehearsal space, and one is ready for gigging, and when you have a big gig, you bring both.

Feel free to submit cash in hand, local deal offers.

albass111 · #13 06-01-2007, 03:07 PM

EPI IS SOLD

midichlorine · #14 06-01-2007, 05:05 PM

albass111 · #15 06-01-2007, 09:59 PM

aggie is available for now.

If you were closer I would pick up these Ashdown cabs in a heartbeat! They really are great cabs for that price...
