Gallien-Krueger MBE410 Cab Is Here!

[jokerjkny]

....and it's on its way to GK. I told Bob G. about the stripped screw in the handle and offered to fix it myself. He is so on top of things, he wanted to see it for himself and sent a UPS label to ship it back.

DANG,

i'm a fan.

Is it a wood screw? Or a T-nut? Im thinking of getting a 212MBE myself.

PS nice looking stack. The aluminum grill looks great against the silver amps.

The screw was fine threaded, I'm guessing a T-nut in there.

Thanks. With that amp, if the 900 watts through the 410 isn't enough I can run my Trace 1518C off the other side!

How does the cab handle the low B?

Seems to handle it quite well. I'll know more after gigging it though.

Not to jump off topic, but when using a MB210 combo with a 210MBE, doesn't it boost from 350 watts to 500 watts? Thanks.

 

[shmoo!]

How are the mids? How are the mids? Are the mids strong?


Oh I almost forgot to ask, how strong are the mids?

Sealed?..GK?...Prolly got a world o mids..

but does it have any bass?
specially for a low B?



Now I see someone already asked...
want gig report.

It seems really balanced just playing solo. Plenty of lows, mids, highs...like I said, the tweeter's not very good. The low B seemed like it didn't strain the cab at all.

When it comes back from GK I'll have more for ya! Gotta gig a week from today, that will help.

Those are not the MBE series cabs.

This is a different cab than those. The MBE series is based on the MB combos. Smaller, lighter, etc.

Quick update: After sending in the cab to GK almost two weeks ago, they have been unresponsive to my pleas to have it back here today for two gigs this weekend. Very disappointing!

Without trying to sound lazy, (actually don't have time at the moment to read the whole thread)why did you have to send the cab back?
Thnx.

Is there a tweeter defeat button?

 

[impactwrench]

On a 210MBE there is an on off switch for the tweeter.

The handle is held by a T nut. I'm surprised it stripped. Have you gotten it back yet?

 

[Chowowbus]

Yes it has a "tweeter defeater" on it!
