FT: Pre-Fender SWR Goliath III 4x10" cab for a Pre-Fender SWR Big Ben 1x18" cab

Sign in to disble this ad
I am looking to trade one of my Pre-Fender SWR Goliath III cabs for a Pre-Fender SWR Big Ben cab (manufactured in Sun Valley, CA with chrome grill). Both cabs are in decent condition cosmetically with some wear and tear from living in the trailer but work perfectly and have all original components. Either cab will come with an SWR dust cover. I am prepared to fully cover all shipping costs.



I will have other pictures soon. Please PM me with pics and info if interested.

I know someone that has one... I can get you some pics Monday. I think this is an older black grill one, is that ok? What ohms are your cabs, 8ohms?

Sorry, I forgot to add in my post that I'm looking for one made in Sun Valley CA with the chrome grill. I appreciate the quick response though

Oooh, 1x18..

I thought the Big Ben was a single 1x18 cab? I may've missed something but I only see 2 4X10 cabs in your pics?? Are more pics coming? PM me with a 1x18 shipped, cab price in beautiful, uptown Texas here in the Humble area, 77396.

I may've missed it but are there pics of the 1x18 cab? I can only use a 8 ohm cab, so there. Thanks for any clarification.

He wants to trade one of his 4x10's for a 1x18.

Wow that looks pretty cool, I'd love to have a second Goliath III 4x10. I have a Big Ben but mine is the one with the black old style grille. Do you get a lot of volume with your two Goliath's? I get great tone with my set up with the 4x10's and 18 but not as much volume as you would expect from that setup. I'm pushing it with an Ashdown MAG300R. 307 watts with two 8ohm cabs.

I do get quite alot of volume and headroom with the two Goliaths. I'm also pushing them with a pre-Fender SWR Bass 750 head running at 750 watts, so it can't help but be loud hehe. Very punchy and great clarity with a great bass response from the slot ports, but I desire a little bit more rumble and I have heard great reviews on the Big Ben cabs.

There you go.......you got that "750" watts, I plan to move up to the MAG600R because I really like Ashdowns, nothing against "SWR" which will give me more headroom with my setup. Once you get that Big Ben you should be pretty satisfied. I have an old one and it's a great cab, no farting from that cabinet; really fat lows that you can feel on your pants leg. I do think I would have a more defined sound though with two Goliaths. Have you tried 8x10's, they are pretty beefy too depending on the cabinet.

OTHER PICS...

UPDATE: Ok, here are a few more pics of one of the cabs. I just took pics of one cab instead of both since they both have similar roadwear on them. Also, they were taken with my phone camera so they're not the best quality, hehe.

Big Ben?

Hi. I have a Big Ben with Chrome Grill from Sun Valley, CA that I'd be happy to trade for another 4x10 Goliath III.

If you're still looking and willing to cover all shipping costs I'm located in Nashville, TN.

Thanks,

Mo
