Hey, I saw the ad for that rig! Inland empire, right?
I remember looking up what the heck Bullfrog cabs are...
As far as cabs to buy, depends on your sound goals. I like the suggestion of keeping the current rig until you figure out what you like and don't like about it. Oh, there's a bassman 4x10 for cheeeeep close by. Let me know if you want a link for it.

That sounds good. Thank you!
It was listed in OC. I think I’m am going to hang tight with the cab it came with. Thanks for the heads up though.
Bullfrog Cabs
Bullfrog Cabs?

Some links to talkbass Bullfrog threads. I guess I find it interesting as it somewhat reminds me of Bag End 15s.

Decent buy, maybe.
Thread title sucks, you can do better.
Maybe, "Just got a 'such and such' head for a steal!!!"
Or be cryptic, I don't care.

(SWR) Either a Goliath jr. 2x10" or a Son of Bertha 1x15" (second hand they should go for near-to-nothing)

Any suggestions to replace my 15” speaker in this BFI Bullfrog cabinet? I think the speaker is blown. It distorts when cranked loud?
That might be not blown, yet, so stop doing that!
First figure out if it is blown or you have unrealistic expectations. Did you turn down some bass knob a little? Do you have any other cabs similar to compare?
If you can do a visual inspection, make sure that wiring or insulation can’t touch the cone. Those would give distortion at higher levels and are generally an inexpensive fix.
Otherwise, calculate internal cabinet size, port size and length, and post the results. A lot of folks on talkbass (not including me) can give good suggestions for a driver that will work well in the box given those dimensions.

I just play with everything at 12:00 just noticed when turn up - the low notes made a blown speaker type sound. Unfortunately I do not have anything to compare.
If it sounds fine at moderate volume that is just a case of it is what it is. You can probably get a bit more out of it with a HPF at that rate.
It sounds really good at lower volumes. I know this is lame but what is a HPF?
Reading now. Appreciate it. I have a lot of learning to do for an old timer. I’ve always just plugged in and played. Never took the time to learn about the technical things of gear. Wish I had.
So - I sold the Bullfrog and picked up this really nice SOB in excellent condition. So far I’m loving the sound.
Sweet looking rig right there. I was not familiar with these heads until this thread. Now I want one.
