There is a fair bit of reasoning as to why a vertical 2x12 is better than a 4x12. As a bassist I would prefer to be on stage with a guitarist using a 2x12. Quad boxes beam horribly, 5 meters in front of them they will be the only thing you hear, slightly off to the side and you don't hear the guitar. Single or vertical speakers have much better dispersion in both the crowd and on stage.

Heres some pictures of the frame all together next will be the speakers when i can scrape the pennies together for them, then after i cut the holes itll be time to start covering it in tolex and put all the fiddly bits on :)

Just wait until you try to pop a Superlead ( 200W ) head on top of the stack, they look great but oh my it's hard work.

Can I suggest two boxes? Take one for small rehearsals, two for bigger gigs etc.

Nah just DI for the bigger gigs...... The bassist inside me has just come to life!

No self respecting bassist will just straight DI, Pest. You still got some learnings to do. :)

Kurt, let me know if you want some custom logos for your grills.

Don't worry Pabs I have done my homework :D

We'll make a bass player out of you, eventually. :)
