BASS DUDES. VERLLEN 1x12 500w! ITS HERE (NOW WITH POLL)

HERE IS MY SITUATION:

[Joe Gress]

Well I have both a GK head and an Avatar 210. They are both still solid as hell, and have never failed me (though only being a 210, the Avatar does have it's limits of volume). I would most likely go for the GK cab though since it is a 212. That bit of extra headroom will come in handy I think.

Yup, if you're looking at 112 v 212, go with the 212. I've heard average things about the GK cabs, they're not horrible. And as far as tweeter/horns go, just turn them off if you're gonna use fuzz.

[Achtane]

I only have a little experience with GK but I would still choose it because of the twin speakers. Yeah, just turn off the tweeter.
All the time, I mean. Just disconnect it

[skullservant]

Any other suggested 2x12 bass cabs for around $400? I figured that 12's would be a nice middle ground for both guitar and bass

If I disconnect the tweeter, does it mess up the ohms?

[Achtane]

Disconnecting the tweeter will have a negligible impact on the impedance of the cab. "Negligible" as in "it won't matter at all", not as in "yeah, I mean, it'll still work".
If you do disconnect it, you should prolly leave it in the cab just so you won't have an extra port messing with anything.

[skullservant]

Cool! That sounds simple enough. So is that three votes for the GK? Looks like Musician's Friend is offering 15% off too.

I have that exact Avatar cab, and it's disturbingly loud for being one twelve. And, has not blown even though I pump like 800 watts into it.

[skullservant]

Do you have the neo in it?

[D.o.S.]

I wouldn't buy a cab based on speaker size, for one thing.

2x15's work awesome with guitar.

[skullservant]

I've had a 2x15 which I enjoyed dearly. I'm downsizing for space reasons or I'd be all over a 2x15!!

[D.o.S.]

Well clearly I need to read various forum posts with more of a mind to chronology.

As you were.

[skullservant]

No problem man! 15's are really one of my favorites

[MSUsousaphone]

Wish I could throw my two cents in but I've never played on either and have heard great things about both. Six or half a dozen, to me.

Mhm. It's fucking abrasively loud.
