Guys,,I need your opinion regarding the SWR Golliath 4X10 I II III
I played a II that sounded great but have been told that the III sounds better.The Music stores here in Miami dont have one for me to test so therfore the question.Also' is there a diffrence between the newer ones and the pre-fender models?
I play gospel.
Thanks,,

Wow, unfortunately I can't tell you the difference because I've never played through a G III. I think they are rated for higher wattage than the G II. But, I can tell you that a G II with the original drivers is IMO one of the finest cabs ever. If you can get a good one, do it.

Wrong forum, right cab !

The GIII is a great cab. Before Fender/after fender/during fender...whatever. Nothing bad to say about it. And I think for gospel, it will accentuate its strengths. The II was a great cab as well. Either one is a top notch 410. And, IMO, I pay no attention to that pre/post Fender line of ......

Dogbass,,you are making it difficult for me to choose because i cant find a III to test.
The II that i played in the past sounded great but i hear that the III is even better.
Take care,,

cab

Take it from an old man.I've owned both and the PAS speakers and the original design are WAY better or should I say warmer than the new ones. David N. knew what he was doing with his ideas.
