Avatar cab owners, sound off!!

Re: Avatar cab owners, sound off!!

Were the cabs with a perceived lack of bass response open-back or closed-back? In my experience, whilst an open-back 2x12 has a lot less bass response than a 4x12, a closed back 2x12 is closer to the 4x12 than it is to the open-back 2x12.

That'd be a cool setup to use one of each...

I have a 2x12 closed back with one Eminence Governor and one Wizard. It is finished in blonde tolex with an oxblood grill cloth. The mix of speakers give a pronounced midrange response without sounding harsh, which is perfect for leads. But the bass response is nice and heavy for rhythms on this cab also.

In the picture below, you can see my avatar cabs behind the red strat. I have a closed back 2x12 on top of on open back 2x12.

IMO, they're okay cabs at a great price. The exception would be their vintage 2x12 which is a very good cab at a very good price.

I like the mesa 2x12 oversized recto cabs at the moment. they have great resale value, easy to resell, and have the big sound with v30s and have the logo for all the namebrand snob fans and musicians that you play with. they are pretty cheap at $400 used ebay.
