Hey thanks for your concern, it's legit. I've been dealing with Marc for about 10 years and he's cut me some great deals over that time. I recently contacted him and we spoke via email and over the phone as I'm sure others have. Call me crazy but I feel confident I will get my cabs in a timely manner as one is already complete. We'll see in 2 weeks.
I will say that Dr. B has had problems that are well documented but I must also say I've never been burned. So I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. I'm pulling for the guy to make a complete comeback at some point. If I had the cash I would probably make an investment in his company. There is no reason from quality build/audio standpoint he couldn't compete with the big boys. Many would agree he makes one helluva cab. What convinced me even more was the 52lb 2460 3way 212neo cab I just acquired that just kicks a$$ with my GK MB head.
One of my pet peeves is my disdain for "rat furred" cabs. We could start a separate thread just on that alone. Dr. B's cabs have a beautifully sprayed on bed-liner type durable finish that is just great and stays that way. Why more companies don't do it I'll never know. His cabs also have small a footprint, are fairly lightweight and I love the way they are voiced. I'm gonna post the link for the 212neo I just bought and post a pic of 310neo Blues Bass 2 has up for sale for those few who may not be familiar w/ his work.. If I had the dough I'd scoop it up. I'm partial to 12's and 15's but would love to check out the 310neo. Someone recently posted "the quickest way to get a Dr. Bass cab is to buy a used one". That's probably true......for now anyway.
Sorry to be so long winded, but what the hell I'm 50

years old and thought it was the right thing to do. Thanks for your interest, great question.
