Avatar or GK NEO 12?

Sign in to disble this ad
I’m making the switch from a 410 to 2 112 cabinets.

Anyone have experience with Both of these?


AVATAR NEO 112
Avatar Speakers


GK NEO 112 (NOT MBX..or MBE)
Gallien-Krueger Neo112-II 1x12 300w Bass Cabinet and more Bass Amplifiers at GuitarCenter.com.


I have some experience with GK neo 10s and they are good.
I play Rock/Pop with 5 strings...in a band.I play out at bars, and almost always have PA support.

Which would you choose?

I did read the info on both sites...so I'm kinda hopin someone has actually played both, and can give an opinion based on experience.

Thanks.

I used a GK neo 2x12 for a while, I picked up a used Avatar 8 ohm SB112. I liked the Avatar cab better than the GK. So I bought another one. The Avatar/Markbass stack is what I use now. Other musicians tell me it sounds great. Anyway I think the GK is nice, but the Avatar has more fat/thick flavor. With the 12 inch speakers you get nice bottom and they are quick, so the highs are there also. The horns are nice for slap too.

I went from two 112 cabs to a 410 cab. Make sure you listen to two 112 cabs before you decide to make the switch. They sound very different IME.
