Which Head with Avatar cb112

[gmarcus]

ok.. I got it. I've got a goliath II jr.
I'd like to find a 1x12 to use instead.
Is the avatar that box? If not, is there a
1x12 to take the place of my junior?
I have an old gk 800rb, looking to get a
1001rbII or used iamp350. Lots 'o' options.

I've been playing a GS112 with a BDDI through a Mackie 300 watt PA amp. It sounded good, but I needed 2 aggies to keep up with a two guitar Blues band. I just got a GK 1001RBII and it sounded thinner than the BDDI in my house, but at practice in a big room with the same band it sounded really good. Very clear and it shook everything. The boost added some usable distortion. Not as pillowy as the BDDI, but it seemed to fit better with the band. This was with one cab. Towards the end of the practice as the volume creeped up I farted out the woofer once so I backed off just a touch and was Okay. At a gig with people in the room I think I'll need both cabs, but it should be really loud. I got the gig bag for the head. It is a sweat little rig to carry around.

For my first 112, I went with the Avatar SB112. Very impressive sounding. I played a Aguilar at BassNW, and the differences were minimal to my ears. I know there are some guys out there who can notice this differences, but not a weekend warrior like me.

I play it with a Genz Benz Series 2 I got from Jorg Schroeder.

Joebass, I have only seen the Avatar SB 112. does dave still have the Cb 112? Are you using it as your only cab? I was wondering what the size and weight is. Thanks

I think you mean the SB112 cab. There's no CB/GB112.

*Edit: I see the original post was made a year ago and the CB112 was probably still being made then!
