Heard him using it at a lounge in a 4 pc blues band (using a TH500) and I had to have it! The cab filled the room (unsupported) with rich, warm bass! Alas, when plugging it into my amp, it’s just not the tone I’m looking for.
Re-covered in rat fur which is holding very nicely! $575 shipped conus or $500 locally (I can meet you within reason). Cash or PP F&F only.

It doesn’t look like it… But why would it say both of the numbers there may be something beyond this jack plate that I can’t see. Maybe someone else can answer this question for me?

I think the original non-switchable "Two10" Retro (as opposed to the current model, the switchable "Two10S") was available in either 4 ohms OR 12 ohms. I have seen at least a couple other Two10 cabs for sale that had either the "4 ohm" or "12 ohm" part of the label scribbled out, e.g. in Sharpie. So my best guess is that Barefaced was just standardizing the label so that it showed both 4 and 12, and therefore they could use the same sticker for all Two10 cabs. The intent was that one of them would be blacked out to show which option was actually applicable to that particular cab.

That said - I've also seen multiple examples like the OP's cab here, where neither the "4" nor the "12" are scribbled out at all. I have no idea why some have this and others don't. Maybe it wasn't scribbled out by the factory, and the idea is that it was left up to the owner to do it (and many people simply didn't)? I'm just guessing - maybe a Barefaced expert knows the full answer.

This was an error made by a past employee (or past employees), sorry! It's very annoying and is why the impedances are now handwritten on the rear label. That test shows it's a 4 ohm cab so the other impedance should be blacked out.
