FS...SWR Henry 8x8...Local CT

Sign in to disble this ad
*****SOLD*****

Reluctantly for sale...one Henry the 8x8. This is my favorite cab, ever! It has great low-end, but also, massive punch. This cab goes against all bass cab science...and sounds incredible! There are very few negative reviews on this cab....it is definitely one of the few "must try" cabs out there.

It is not getting enough use for me to justify keeping it (it takes up a fair bit of space). The Henry is in great shape for it's age...pre-Fender, with Celestions and diamond grill. There is some wear on the carpet, but no dents, rips, or gouges. The carpet on the bottom cab has come unglued a bit...but could be fixed up easily. The drivers are in great shape, and the cab is very clean...no dust, or grime anywhere. The grill has been sprayed matte black by an auto-body shop, and looks much better than the original grey color.

Specs from SWR:

480W RMS power handling @ 4 ohms
Frequency Response -6dB @ 35Hz and 18KHz
Dimensions: 23-1/4"W x 36-1/2"H x 18-1/2"D
Weight: 100 lbs.

The cab has tilt-back casters, which make it super easy to move, and comes with a brand new SWR embroidered cover. I'll get pics up in the next day or two.

This will be a local sale only due to size, and weight. I am located in North Haven CT (06473). Feel free to bring your bass and amp, if you'd like to test drive.

If need be, I will deliver (or meet) anywhere in CT.

Price is $400.00 firm.

Bump for a great "honey I shrunk the SVT and it sounds better" cabinet.
The one here has a blue grill.

Have a bump. I have the same cab and it's really nice and not hard to carry around at all.

No, sorry. But you must have some friends/family that you miss up here...I think it's time for a trip.

My old cab!

Free bump for my old cab!

You really cleaned her up nicely, bb03...and I can assure potential buyers that she sounds even better than she looks!

Good luck, man.

PS - still loving my own rig!

If anyone heading to the New England Bass GTG next weekend is interested in picking up the Henry there...I'll make the trip. As of now, I've got alot going on, and probably won't be going...but if it makes a sale happen, I'll be there.

I want this so bad, it's not even funny. Alas, I am more than a couple miles away.
