    Would it work at all or is the cab (closed back) only voiced for guitar speakers?

    It's a TT Cab.

    If it can be done - what's to be expected? Probably better results with guitar than bass?

    I'd be interested just for recording purposes, to add snap to the good old DI track. :)

    Cheers,

    L.

    Normally a guitar cab will have too small a volume to suit a bass driver. Mixing differing drivers in the same cabinet is not such a good idea.

    The result is all about the details. What are your tone preferences (hi-fi, fat, tight and articulate, punchy, airy highs, aggressive mids, etc.)? What's the internal volume of the cab? Which 10 inch driver? Sealed or vented (tuning frequency)? Amplification (SS or tubes)?
