Thanks to Nomatic for suggesting it. Same output as the 210Flex. 4 ohms. 26 wide by 27 1/2 tall by 14 deep. Around 70#. As per Tom Bowlus's suggestion, since this pic I put a handle from front-to-back on one of the top corners. That way you have the option of grabbing a side handle and having the cab the long way facing away and grabbing the top handle over the top. Makes it tons easier for stairs and doorways. Thanks Tom!

I am trying to get rid of gear, but that makes me want a 10" sub for my MAS 46!

Wow that's an impressive tone monster. Assembly must be a challenge with a piece like that. Think you'd get some frowns carrying that into a restaurant gig?

 

[mntngrown]

And a lot of questions!

I imagine it's ok for me to mention this, since my only connection to MVW is my empty wallet! Leland mentioned, on the forum, some kind of roadshow, that will hit the west coast too.

I am considering doing it too. I'd love to set up GTG's on the way from Chicago to LA and up to SF. And any cities on the way. Road Trip!!!

Cool! The Santa Cruz/San Jose owners would be in to scouting a location if you wish.

Don't forget about us on the east coast PLEASE!!! Specifically the DC metro area. Baltimore or Richmond OK too. Thanks.

My daughter is in Baltimore. Gives me an excuse to visit!

Again--it's not really that big. 410 size but shallower. 26 x 27 x 14

Assembly is a PITA. It's really just two cabinets. That cabinet is entirely 3/8 Okume. With the extensive bracing it's the same weight as poplar, but stronger and more stable. And a lot more expensive. I'm getting it from France---rotary cut---the best stuff out there. Too bad that I have to Duratex it---it's really pretty stuff. It's what the top boat builders use.

Mike, book a gig at Blues Alley!

I have a studio in Eugene, Oregon and would love to host a GTG if you make it up this far.

Played there many times!

It's not the size, it's that bright purple with all those angled black cones. Looks like a sonic disrupter that could hurt someone if not kept properly on a leash.

Okume is good material to build with but it is expensive.
