Personally, I have owned some Workingman's 410's that blew away Goliaths. I own and owned both. They are both great, but the WM410 just gets such GREAT low end !!

You scored.
I am definitely happy with the entire set-up. I played the workingman's 410 through a Behringer BX3000T, which, the cab was OK with that but I finally got rid of that amp and picked up a Backline600. That sounded pretty good through the WM cab. But about a month ago I got that Bass750 and man.... that alone changed everything..... my guitarist and I had been considering looking for a second guitarist but man... after I got that SWR amp my guitarist said "forget looking for anyone else, everything sounded so full... anything that felt empty before is gone... that amp is amazing."

I agree with the workingmans cab having so much low end... this past rehearsal I used the GIII by itself and I noticed I was missing a bit of the low I had before but the clarity was awesome. yeah, these two together sound pretty amazing. =)

Providing it is a very quiet band Not much headroom there, it is a bedroom practice amp.

Count me in as another fan of the WM 4X10T + Goliath III combo. And here's a pic showing just how MUCH I like it. ...Of course, I wasn't plugged in at the time, but still...

Yes !! I am so glad to see love for the GIII / WM 410 stack cab combo.

Also, awesome camera !!! Great high speed clarity.

Maybe a sub club should be SWR Goliath III / Workingman's 410 = an unstoppable 810 Club

Hahaha! That probably would have been easier than getting that shot!

I had my friend (who is shorter than me, which probably helped with the perspective of height of the jump) take the pic, and we had to practice timing the shutter just right: Press shutter button half-way to get focused on me, and then once it's locked in, aim the view a foot or so higher, then I jump on three, and my friend clicks the shutter on the "AND" of three. (Ya know, in the pocket.)

...This was probably take #7. (See my "three!"-face?)
(It's also part "my legs are in pain from jumping so many times"-face.)

It's the kind of shot you don't want to wear out your girlfriend's patience with, so you get your bro to do it...

That's the rumor around here, and seems likely to be true.

Hmm. Everybody's got an end of the road.

Kustom K 200B (-6)
GK 800RB
SWR SM-400s
Ampeg SVP-Pro...

My basement is a small-scale museum!

Too bad, but I guess they've been through enough changes and made enough waves to be alright with winding up. Play on!

Just another victim of Fender. Remember Sunn, they stole the tech and kept it alive long enough to harvest the final penny. Same will happon with SWR.
