I have a nice 60w tube head - based on the B15 - and I've used it for guitar with the S15.
Was kind of thinking the 12 would make for a cool guitar rig.
I run a 2x12" with a 40 watt tube head (2x 6L6 and a switchable preamp that can do modern or vintage takes on Fender, Marshall, or Vox tone stacks... almost) for either bass or guitar, and another 2x12" with a 200 watt tube bass head (4x KT88). I play short and long scale basses, 4, 5, 6, and 7 string.
The S12 plus your tube head should be pretty sweet
Got my new (to me) 15 cab. Did not get the 12.
Was having a bit of fun last night... two different amps running to the two different cabs.
Also played guitar a bit with the tube amp / S15, and was able to get some great tones.

Actually have a question for the group. -- Maybe better to email Bag End...
Is anyone aware of an easy - drop in - replacement for the input panel on the back. I'd like to change it out so they have at least one Speakon connector.
Before I go and start taking measurements, searching the net, etc... thought someone here might already be in the know.

Did they link you to that? There aren't any 1/4" jacks. Email [email protected] and ask what you need. Send a picture of your plate and the serial of the cab.
Na. Just a quick check on their web page.
Thanks for the email address.
Thought I would post a pic of my new Bag End - now 2x 115 stack.
Steamboat 60w tube amp on top.
Custom Bassman preamp down low.
Both amps sound great.

That's awesome!! You can't go wrong with 2 Bag End 15s
I have some outdoor gigs coming up and am thinking of running a triple stack of Bag Ends…a pair of S15D cabs and one S15XD. I figured on putting the XD on top, but am now wondering if making it the middle cab might be better? Any thoughts/opinions on tweeter placement from you folks?
You could try it both ways and see what you think.
These are still non-adjustable HF levels right?
I'm not big on a lot of HF, so probably middle for me (if not bottom).
How does the 400RB do with one of the Bag Ends? Thinking about going a similar route…
I also use the S15 cabs with 400rbs. My first BagEnd cab is an old birch one with the original Gauss speaker.
I bought with an early GK 400rb with the gray connected cord.
It still sounds awesome together.
Do you like to hear those frequencies? If above 3kHz is a big part of your sound, and you want to hear those, I'd probably start with it on top.
If you are worried that might be a bit much in your ears, then the middle.
I'd probably put it in the middle.
