I have spent entirely too much time searching and reading instead of playing my bass... I would like for any GK MB2-500 users or modular 112 setup users to give me some feedback. If anybody can recommend something that would be great. I currently have a Genz Neox 212T that sounds Amazing with the GK head but want to put together a moduluar setup for other gigs I do. I am considering Genz, Glockenklang, Mesa, and Aguilar DB's so far but have not had the opportunity to try my GK head with any of them except Dr. Bass and that did NOT do it for me. Doesn't matter to me if they are Neo cabs or not. Not opposed to suggestions on good 115's either or one 210 4 ohm cab if anyone has had success with that config and the GK MB2-500. Thanks!

First thought here is that if you think the GB 212T sounds amazing with the GK head, you'd like the GB 112T too.

Really diggin' my setup. Very versatile and light weight.

Holy smoke...the USA JO looks amazing. :eek:

Same wood choice, pickguard as my main Lull. I like the full size though of the JO as I'm 6'2.

Sorry for the OT folks.

I don't have a GK head but my Bergantino HT/EX 12'er stack sure sounds good. IMHO, a large improvement over the Aguilar GS-112 stack I had before them.

FWIW, I'm using either a Glockenklang HeartCore or a Genz-Benz Shuttle 6.0 with them... my other cab is an Accugroove Tri-115.

Well, I need to get some cabs from GK, for sure. But in the meantime, I am totally digging this head with either two Bergantino AE112's, or a pair of EBS Neo112's. Both of those rigs are very light and portable, and can sound far larger than they look. The Neo112's need a little bit of bass boost, but the MB2 ​500 certainly can deliver the goods. :bassist: :cool: :D

The EBS Neo's is a nice thought... Thanks for chiming in!
