continuing my 1x15 search- Bag End/Genz Benz

Sign in to disble this ad
I'm looking to add a 1x15 cab to my rig. I'm not looking to shake the room, just round out the low end a bit. I'm playing an American Jazz bass or my Lakeland 5 string 55-01 through either a Genz Benz Shuttle 6.0 or a Mark Bass LM2- I'm looking for something small and portable.. I have the chance to pick up a Bag End s15-d or a Genz benz GB15 cab. Both are the size I'm looking for. I'd love to be able to swing a Mark Bass traveler or NY151 cab, but the are out of my price range. What are you impressions of the Bag End or the older GB?

I have owned a GB15 tilt back with the tweeter and I really liked it but I had a trade offer for a BagEnd 4x10 straight across so I couldnt pass that up.
The GB15 had plenty of bottom end and was a well rounded cab that could have been used for standalone no problem in my opinion.

Do you have another cab you're going to use this with?

The Bag End S-15D is a fantastic cab. I ran a pair of those for some time. Currently I rock an Aguilar DB-115 when I want o bring the thunder down under. I highly recommend both of those enclosures though their sounds are very different.
