Is this sound like a fair trade?

Sign in to disble this ad
I saw this Marshall 4x12 bass cab in this shop and the price is listed $430 because is second hand.

I ask about part exchange cabs and they would give me $200 for both Ashdown MAG210 and MAG115.

So basically i only need to pay $230 extra and i planning to run the marshall to the little markbass 250. Since the marshall is a 4ohm cab.

no way i'd do it. you could get probably close to double for those cabs if you sold them yourself.

+1 keep your gear.

Many reasons:
- I think 210 + 115 is much more modular and portable
- 210 + 115 sounds better, though some people feel differently
- 210 + 115 looks better
- I think for bass, I'd prefer Ashdown over Marshall in general
- The price that the shop is offering for your Ashdown is LOW!
