Details

In like new condition. Cab sounds great and is the best cab I've ever played through. I had a Barefaced Big Baby II 3rd generation and this cab goes louder and deeper without ever sounding loose, IME. Sounds great whether you cut bass or add bass. Great low punch. Of course the Barefaced is known to produce great lows. But, where I thought I needed to turn up the bass knob to get those lows, with the Bodai I keep the knob at noon. Or dial it back even further. Bass never sounds anemic. Just great at taking EQ.

I'm always trying new cabs. Still my plan was to keep this for larger gigs and try a Fearless F112 for smaller to medium gigs. Only selling because the only large gig I do right now has a full Modern PA setup with IEMs. A couple of times I still took the Bodai 28 and played through it during breaks or after gig, and the feedback I get from musicians is that I sound way better that way (rest of the band still coming through PA) than when I am going through the house.
Other reason I'm selling is I'm building a small home studio and space is ltd so I'm only using PA type speakers even for bass.
So I will be putting up a couple of GK Neo 112 for sale too.

Only trades I would consider;
Fearless F112, just because I still haven't tried it yet, and I could possibly keep it for those smaller gigs.
Bodai 18. Also for smaller gigs
Bergantino Forte HP. Haven't tried that yet either.

Will be shipped in original box and packing.

To answer some questions;
Meeting for pickup can be arranged in the New England area.

I am willing to split shipping 50/50.

It's the newer version of this cab. Late 2020. Mike temp paused production of his cabs earlier this year. Usually estimated turnaround is listed at 9 - 14 weeks. I got this in about 2 months.

From the site;
Description
The Bodai is the newest evolution of MVW speaker cabinets from MAS. We've implemented what we've learned and from bass player's suggestions.

The biggest feature of the Bodai is the top section. Vortex loaded Faital midrange drivers.Power,world class fidelity, high output, and unbelievable size/weight ratio.

This is my gigging cab. Fidelity, dispersion and world-leading bass extension. Thought that extension to 35hz is impractical for a gigging bassist? Think again.
Imagine playing staccato 16th's on the B string. No overhang between notes. No loading the stage with boomy bass.

You may contact us prior to your order for shipping and other information.

A Vd of 920cc is a LOT of air being moved.

If I didn't already own a bunch of MAS cabs I'd take the plunge, but it's probably best that I don't. Still, Mike makes the best cabs I've ever played through.

Played through one of these with a MAS 10 cab below it a few weeks ago (not sure which model, I was picking up an HT322 from a fellow member and he had that stack) I was blown away with how incredible these cabs sounded. Standing 15ft directly to side of the cab it sounded just as good as standing in front of it. If I wasn't already pretty damn happy with what I have I would definitely snag this. GLWTS

... So, it's 4 ohms?
And could handle all 800 watts of a Mesa D800?
I absolutely love my F112, but this is interesting

I haven't tried it with a Mesa D800, but I did with a Mesa TT-800 at high volume. No sweat. I've also gigged it with a Magellan MG800, which is even louder in my real world experience, in really loud bands without PA. That's how I KNOW it covers a large auditorium even more comfortably than a Barefaced Big Baby in the same situation.

Mike actually says that these are even better with amps 1000+ watts.
