Every speaker is original, functions properly and should last for years to come. The tweeter was replaced many years ago. Carpet covering was recently cleaned and is in really good shape.

That's a bad- ass little rig! I had a GK 1001rb and that model of Henry VIII, but not at the same time. It should handle any gig. That's a great price. Good luck!

Added an option for shipping if someone really wants this full rig. It doesn't look to be as bad as I thought. Packaging is another story...

If you were closer I'd jump on the Henry , GLWTS though!

Curious though what the ship prices ballpark are looking for the cab?

Short answer is anywhere from $1-$5 a pound. Long answer is that it depends on where it would be going and how much packaging is going to add to the cost. I've added the option because maybe someone who has shipped a large cab like this has a better idea than I do about how to get it from A to B. So with that said, a local deal will likely take priority over shipping this beast.

Totally understandable, I was just curious. I'm located in the middle part of the country so I am sure it would be kind of expensive. Those cabs don't usually show up for sale around my area. Again though, good luck with the sale - someone will be getting some nice gear.

Much appreciated!

Cant believe at this price its still here. If you are in a loud band you don't need anything else.

need anything else.

Fed ex is your best bet. Get a box big enough, put the cab in a large plastic bag and fill the box with pop corn stuffing. Get a price and see if you can make arrangements with the buyer.

Put a few more pictures up. What I could see it looks new.

It’s in pretty darn good shape for its age. I’ve had it for 18 years and everything is still in tact.

Thanks. I'm not too worried about it. Someone will either want it or not. I know it's priced to sell, but it's a tough one at this particular moment in time for two reasons - 1. It's 100 lbs. All of the new stuff out now is half the size and weight with double or triple the power handing (and we're all thankful for that), 2. No one is currently playing a steady stream of gigs. Though, that is very slowly starting to change in my area of SoCal.

I know I essentially crapped on my own thread here, but someone who is looking at this cab likely knows what it's about. 8x8" speakers, 480w RMS, and 100 lbs of fun! So if there's a gigging musician out there who doesn't mind lugging a mini-fridge around that has been pretty well taken care of, I have a cab for you!

I had one of these that followed me around for a few weeks on a tour we were on and I loved it. Sounded great! I didn't have to carry it though! GLWS!

What a great deal! If my back was as healthy and strong as it used to be, or if I had roadies, I would make the 4 hour drive to pick this up! Good luck with the sale!

Thanks! Personally speaking, it's not THAT bad to move. I can take it up and down stairs by myself without much problem. The side handles make it easy to grab with both hands and you have just enough space to safely do a step at a time.

Also, I'm not opposed to anyone who is interested in meeting halfway somewhere within about 2 hours of where I live. I still have the means to transport it, and I would assume a buyer would as well considering its size.

4 ohms or 8 ohms?

4 ohms at 480w RMS. They’ve never made an 8 ohm version of this cab to the very best of my knowledge.

Thanks.
