Members punkicidal Posted January 28, 2009 Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 I need something relatively cheap.. I was thinking this GK cab, since it's cheap. I don't want anything more than 2x10's. I've been playing for over 12 years and always had a Yorkville combo amp with a 15"woofer/3" tweeter. I've never had a head/cab combo for bass. I used to post on this forum about 6 years ago under a different name, but was on hiatus from playing bass, but I've gotten back into my music over the past year, so yeah.. Anyways... Now I'm running one of these and I need a cab for it. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gonzobassman Posted January 28, 2009 Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 Killer head I bet! I'm unimpressed with the Backline series by GK,and I usually really like GK,but these just don't seem to be able to handle any real volume.Hate to see you spend 200.00 on a cab you may not even like.Just my opinion.

Members yanikins Posted January 28, 2009 Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 im pretty fond of my swr 2x10 but they aint the cheapest. Not in australia anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members punkicidal Posted January 28, 2009 Author Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 Haha thanks! I don't actually get it till tomorrow night.. I trade a Digitech RP50 straight up for it.. The dude said it just needs to have the pots cleaned, but that's easy to do. I've been using my Orange Tiny Terror on bass lately, and it sounds great.. But, alas, I needed a bass amp. SWR.. I'm partial to.. I'm a huge Ampeg fan, and miss my friend's SVT-CL w 8x10. Any one ever use any Peavey cabs? Oh yeah, another thing, I'm usually playing at medium-loudish bedroom levels, but still want something that can handle small gigs too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members poomwah Posted January 28, 2009 Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 I've heard LOTS of raves about avatars 210... a bit more money but you should be able to find one used for about the same price as that GKthese are on sale for 250 https://www.carvinguitars.com/products/single.php?product=BR210and I can personally vouch for them... I've had one for almost 15 years now, and its been through absolute hell and still sounds great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members louloomis Posted January 28, 2009 Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 I have the older G-K 2x10 with a horn. I think new it cost around 400-500 bucks, but I got mine on Craigslist for about 225.00. It was the top of the line at the time (pre-Neo) and let me tell you, it is UNBELIEVABLE! Try to find one. I was always a 15" speaker fan, but this cab is loud, focused and can handle serious watts (at least no probs with my G-K 400RB-IV).

Members yanikins Posted January 28, 2009 Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 Oh yeah, another thing, I'm usually playing at medium-loudish bedroom levels, but still want something that can handle small gigs too. not to , but my "bedroom rig" is an swr Working pro 700 running through an SWR working pro 2x10. Add a 15"" and it out does a loud drummer, a mesa triple and a fender hundred watt:thu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darkstorm Posted January 28, 2009 Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 Eden Nemesis 2x10 with horn. Inexpensive and very lightweight easy to move 2x10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I have a Peavey 210TVX, and although a bit heavy for a 210, it's a great cab - a used one in decent shape can usually be had for around $200, and would probable serve your purposes quite well... - georgestrings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members solderjunkie Posted January 28, 2009 Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 Dig on something used... a good GK maybe. The Peavey TVX cabs are sweet, as are the Peavey Tour cabs (being blown-out at GC's in the 'States). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rpsands Posted January 28, 2009 Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 Used Peavey 210TVX would be my pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members T. Alan Smith Posted January 28, 2009 Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 I'd be grabbing another Peavey 210 cab in a heartbeat if I wanted a 2x10 on a tight budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members lug Posted January 28, 2009 Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 I don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet, but the Peavey 2X10TVX is the way to go here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really like the size of this one. It seems very deep for a 2x10. I'm going up to Long & Mcquade tonight once my friend gets here and check out what kinda cabs they have.
