Ok, please keep in mind that when I'm talking about this speaker, I'm coming from a perspective of gigging with an 80-pound Genz-Benz 410 monster. Yes, I loved that beast, the tone was butter... it was just too bulky. It's the perfect cabinet for a bass player with a dedicated roadie...not me.
Anyway, this review is about the Aguilar GS 112 speaker cabinet for the electric bass guitar... so that's what I should be talkin' about: Well, let me just say that this bass speaker cab is awesome... I mean it, I'm a bass player like you, just trust me - it's awesome. Not just me either, the Bass Player magazine review of the Aguilar GS 112 ranked it as the best too.
This is why I think this Aguilar is awesome: 1) it is very lightweight, 2) it's solid, 3) most importantly, it sounds fantastic... it's perfect for rock, & my favorite, slapping. If you have a chance, try one of these out, you'll be impressed. Get two cabinets... use one for smaller gigs & use two for larger venues - the ultimate, portable rig. I'm sounding like an evangelist... ok I'm done.
