Replace AND upgrade. I don't like cabs doing an end-over when hitting the smallest crack. 4" casters off ebay $22.95. Dowel fill the stock caster holes. Mount a removable caster plate. Done.

I have 2 Big Ben's. I called Eminence and they recommended the 800w rms Kappa Pro 18LF-8. I replaced the speakers in both cabs. They take everything I throw at them and sound great while doing it..

I just picked up the VL3X for vocals and bass.

I just picked up another one today at GC for $79. I have attached photos of my modified 260c. It's a monster.

Old thread, but I have something to add. Keep the cab. Get rid of the head. The 260c is a solid and heavy cab. Great for a more powerful speaker. I replaced the stock 100w@4Ohms 10" Acoustic speaker with a 600w RMS@8Ohms 10" Eminence Kappa Pro LF Bass Speaker. Now it's an 8Ohm 600w cab. I also...

GK's 2x10 cabs are always the first to go in any given series. I feel fortunate to have 2-210RBH cabs in excellent shape. The 4 Ohm 4x10 cabs go next - as soon as the 16 Ohm 10" raw speaker stock runs out.

You definitely have to go third party. To help you in your search, both the 410RBH and 115RBH are the same dimensions. Two good ones are Tuki Padded Amp Covers and Custom Amp Covers. Both are thick. The Tuki covers are a padded nylon-like material that holds it's form and you can stand the Tuki...

Breathing more life into an old thread... So now it's June of 2016. Back to damping and bracing. This thread was originally regarding the original MBE series and Bob Gallien's statement (page 1, post#6) that omitted damping was part of the intentional design of the MBE series cabs. I have an...

I have 3 MBE210-II's. They are a great find. I even found one for $149 at GC no less. I have an earlier MB210-II combo with the neo speakers. I guess the current MB210-II combos are now sporting the CX series ceramic speakers.

I own a lot of high end GK. I have to admit GK, you confuse me. What's up with mentioning "Die Cast GK Nickel Chrome Logo" as a selling feature in the MBE-II spec-sheet? Really?! Does it matter? Is it part of the speaker itself? Like, does it matter if it is Die Cast versus Stamped? Like a...

Come on...

UPDATE: Funny. Hours from my first post on this, I just bought the SR800 at GC= $169 + $14 shipping. I collect them. As a matter of fact I am playing an SR800 in my avatar photo. I restore the junk ones. I have plenty of spare parts. It's got the Gotoh made in Japan Logo on the tuners, looks...

It's still there and this is the 1st of October. I called before I saw this thread. They won't budge on the price. They say the neck is straight and the frets are good. Listed as poor condition.

Anybody notice GK dropped price on all raw speakers??

The 210 absolutely. I have the MB210-II and MBE210-II. They work as good as expected from a matched set with equal power. So, seeing this thread is a year and a half old, what did you decide?
