Pros: Construction, sound
Cons: Not enough contact points between grill and front of cabinet.

This cabinet is extremely well-built. The tone is incredible, especially when playing a vintage P bass through a Fender 300PRO head.

Pros: solid contruction, tone
Cons: weight

This may be the last cabinet I buy. I purchased it to pair with my Fender 300 PRO (all tube) head. Although it sounds great with all my basses, it is simply amazing when paired with a vintage P bass. I would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone searching for vintage tone, particularly that nasty old P bass sound that is so rare today.

Pros: tone, clarity, definition
Cons: weight

As much as people bypass these cabs - they are among the best out there. Well built with better clarity and definition than most others. I've used most everything out there and I'm done looking. These are not the Fender cabs from 10 years ago. I use this along with the Pro 410 and a 200w Hiwatt head to give me a sound that kills. Perfect for bringing out the best from my Ric, Alembic or Thumb. I don't use a Fender bass and I like these.

Pros:
Cons:

One thing to clarify. This is a 4 ohm cabinet, not 8 ohm. There are 2 15" 8 ohm drivers wired in parallel which comes out to 4 ohms total.
