Details

If you have been here long enough, you’ll be familiar with these cabs. If not, these are the three way cabs Dave Green ( Greenboy ), started a mega thread about “ Boutique Three Way Bass Cab On A Budget “. They were the precursor of the fEarful cab which he eventually designed. Many used them stock as a three way bass cab. I’m selling both of them for $250. One has rat fur, the other has a sort of truck bed liner coating. I used the rat fur one as a bass cab, then got another one and started using them for light use PA work. For the last few years, they have been used for outdoor parties with a stereo power amp and my IPod, so, although they definitely look used, pretty much have not seen heavy duty. The rat fur has bits and pieces of dirt and debris that I just can’t get out, and the coated cab has ingrained dirt that I can’t get out, but really does not look that bad. If you wanted to spend the time, you could probably get them spiffed up pretty good; I'm too lazy. No tears, dents, etc. Both working as they they should, last time I used them. The photos show them on hand made dollies attached by velcro. The dollies are $50.00 extra if you want them, otherwise, $250 for the pair. No mods have been made, all stock.

This will have to be a local sale. If you live in the Toledo/Detroit/Cleveland/Ft.Wayne area, I would drive half way from Toledo for delivery. Of course, no warranties are expressed or implied, sold as is. Here’s a chance to see what the whole three way bass cab world is all about on the cheap ! They also are great sounding PA cabs.

I still use a pair of 1503's as the mains for FOH...they're stock. Probably be with me 'til I shuffle-off this mortal coil. This was the largest Carvin enclosure that was tripod-able. They're also bi-amp capable...just flick a switch.

I've also kept one of these in the stable. Really well designed pairing of drivers, x-over, and cab. Rich, full, even sound. Reasonable weight, and easy to carry.

Performance per dollar, probably one of my all-time best cab purchases. And at the OP's giveaway prices for the pair, somebody near Toledo's going to get a lot of cab for $250.

I don't even need these, but if I were local I would be all over them. Used power amp & mixer and excellent practice pad PA where you could go direct with your bass as well. GLWTS

Wish I lived closer, I'd take them in a heartbeat. My lsx-1503 (the spray on finish version) is the only cab I have right now. My brother has one as well. This is a fantastic deal!

What a steal...if I lived closer I would already have these! I used 2 of these for years in my bass rig for floor monitors to put my sound in front of me and loved it, and we used them as monitors & mains in our band at other times. These are a perfect all around 3 way cab for anything
