Good light cabinet for GK800rb?

Post by BossMann73 »

Just picked up a beautiful GK800RB head pretty cheap and need to pair it with a good solid lightweight cabinet. My car and back will not accomodate a 4x10 or 8x10. Problem is I have no idea what's out there these days. I'm thinking a 2x10 or a 1x15. Any suggestions to steer me in the right direction? Not looking to break the bank and buy a custom cab. Just a good workhorse off the shelf lightweight jobby is fine. Thanks is advance!

I mean, not light exactly but I love my Mesa Powerhouse 1x15. If you can find a used one, they are awesome. Plus I use it with my 1001 rbII and it sounds great.

B-series Ampeg 1x15 should be pretty cheap and they're small-ish and light-ish. I bought one unloaded and threw a Big Ben in it, but a Deltalite or Kappalite would shave a few pounds off I'm sure.

How light is light? The GK Neo 212 is pretty nice for the $400ish it runs used, weighs about 50 lbs.
