SWR Goliath Junior III 210

[Jim Leslie]

I just got a great deal on a used Fender Rumble 500 head ($199.) and am now looking for a cabinet to pair with it. I saw a used SWR Goliath Junior III 210(350W @ 8 ohms) today at a local music store at a nice price, in great condition. Any feedback on this cabinet? I was also considering the new Rumble 115 V3 cabinet, not sure weather to start with a 210 or 115, I'm very new at this. Thanks for the feedback.

Very good deal on a nice head. The Goliath Jr 210 is a good cab, although a bit heavy. The Rumble 115 is a fine cab: well built, light weight, has good bass quality and has a smooth horn. Thing is, whatever you get, you will eventually want a second (identical) one. The Rumble 115 would be my pick for a cab to build a capable two 115 cab rig around. For a cab to use for small venues, I'd check out the Goliath Jr 210 (its a classic). The Goliath cabs are getting harder to find with stock drivers in good condition.

The new Rumble V3 series would certainly be easier to duplicate when the time comes, as they are a new product.
