Schroeder Dosen't Suck!

As big a fan as I am of the 1212L, the UL212 (and the AG212 and Eden212XLT, etc.) is a totally different thing. Of course, it's twice as big (or more), but because of that, it has that beautiful, extended low end and a much wider, bigger tone. There's a place for both the uber mid punch slam of the 1212L in that wonderful small package, and also a more traditionally voiced, wider, more even voicing of a larger more traditionally designed and voiced cab.

I view the 1212L as more similar to a REALLY loud 210 cab than to the larger 2x12's, if that makes sense.

I must admit i havent heard a 1212R or L. I figure the 1212L will be a thicker version of the 1210R (i think yo uhave said this as well). I did debate getting a 1212R to start with but Jorg rightly said the 1210 would suit me better. I still dont like 10's as i think for my pick playing the attack is too fast so quite fancy keeping the Schroder tone while getting a better low mid/low end that i would think the 2x12 would give.
Im not finding the UL212 quite gives the punch my 1210 does but as i havent actualy had the two in the same room it could just be that im used to the 1210. Certainly the UL212 has a fuller, richer tone but i miss the middy punch of my 1210 sometimes.

Yeah, I"m one of the most recent converts. One gig so far, but the 1212L killed for such a little box. I've now got a 1210L on order for a second rig setup, and the ability to run the Schroeder "stack of doom" if needed :D . Jorg is just a fantastic guy to deal with. If Schroeder is "coming back" on TalkBass, then I for one am glad (granted we can be a bit of a picky lot to say the very least). No one cab is going to work for everyone, but there is no denying that these little Schroeder cabs can get the job done and more. I can't wait to get some more gigs under my belt with them!!!!

Jorg sent me this pic today. This is after two coats of the Rhino application. Remember that thread about issues of MDF (or whatever it was) in schroe cabs? Obviously, thats not the case here. :bassist:
