Sounds like a PIA for a great sound. I almost went down that road with 2 of them and the WJA pre but it sure is pricey and apparently awkward and heavy and there is no where to try it around here. I think you just cured that GAS.Thanks! She's doing great, especially considering she had her throat sliced open a couple of weeks ago. She went back to work today. She's a school administrator, so it's not physically demanding, but it's a stressful job. She went back early, before the kids are back in school, to start catching up. She's a trooper!
If the WJA Powered 2x10 wasn't so heavy and ergonomically terrible, I'd still be using it.
Pros-
-They sound AMAZING
-They look cool
-Two of them would be a$$ kicking
-Wayne Jones is a neat guy
Cons-
-They're, like, 77 Lbs!
-There's only ONE top handle
-The wheels are nice, but the pull out handle is too short
-Because the vent for the amps is in there back, there are limitations to where it can be on a stage
-The only input is an XLR
-Did I mention it weighs 77lbs and only has ONE top handle...
The thing is impossible to lift into a vehicle, unless you either A) bend down, grab the top handle, and somewhere on the bottom(super awkward). B) Lay it on it's side, and lift it(if you do it that way, you have two handles, but it's harder to lift). Or, C) Get the singer, who's not doing anything, to help you lift it.
But, they sound AMAZING!
also, if the GB 410 is so destroyed that it needs to hop a truck to the recycle bin I’ll send you my address and they can drop it off here. I won’t even charge a disposal fee.
Are the speakers and wiring ok? Is it just cosmetically trashed?If it wouldn't cost an arm, a leg, and an internal organ to be named later, to ship it, I'd gladly send it to ya'. I'm trying to think of ways to dispose of it, that wouldn't make me feel like an @SS for trashing a super high end cab.
Plus, I'm not exaggerating, it's completely trashed...
Thanks man. Apparently I have a problem.....a problem with good taste though. Hahahaha Cheers from Toronto.....all the best to the wife as well.
Ouch.Glad I could help!
Nope! It's a sad state of a series of unfortunate events that led to that cabs demise. The wiring is probably still ok, but there's only one driver in it, one of the wheels completely disintegrated(not sure how that happened), and it looks trashed. He#*, the cosmetics are probably the best thing about that cab, LOL! I did talk to Andy(agedhorse) about restoring it to it's former glory, but, at the time, I had zero desire to spend that kind of money on old gear. I should just pull out that last driver and set it out on the curb for trash day, I just can't bring myself to do it. The wife REALLY wants it gone...LOL
It could be a cool project for someone. I, however, am not that someone, at least at this moment.
Or tesla vs blown V8.
I didn't realize I had a GAS 'problem'.....until I took this pic.
I'm thinking I need to do a bit of a sell off at some point. Oops.
I will send some pedal board and cab pics tomorrow.
(I would name makes and models but ya'll probably already know)
Have a great night my buds!!
