    Ampeg PB112 & PB210 PortaBass Cabinets

    Ampeg PB-112HPublished on 09/07/04 at 15:00
    These were clearance priced at the Guitar
    Center at $249 for the 1x12 and $289 for
    the 2x10, including the wheels, no covers.

    I was already using a PB250 head with a
    1x12, so the 2nd 1x12 is a back-up, and
    the 2x10 is for use with bigger heads.

    I like the classic tone of Ampeg gear and
    these units are so light and compact that
    most of my other cabinets see little use
    anymore. The luggage-style wheels with a
    telescoping handle are handy, but these
    cabs are so light, they could have maybe
    not even included it. OTOH, the cab with
    the luggage rig makes a good cart to load

    and often you can load in entirely in one
    easy trip.

    These cabs all have a horn driver with an
    attenuator dial. If you're into fretless
    and hollow bodies, this is an especially
    cool feature. Also there's a little flip
    thingy on the bottom to tip the cab up so
    you don't send half of your sound right
    into the carpet.

    The steel grilles make it easy to pile
    stuff into the truck without worry about
    tearing a cloth or damaging a cone.

    They are expensive. If it weren't for the
    really great clearance price, I'm not sure
    I'd ever have bought them.

    Also, they are all 4 ohm cabinets, so you
    need a head that can drive 2 ohms if you
    want to combine them.

    Much has been described above. Not yet
    mentioned is that each cab has a pair of
    SpeakOn and a pair of 1/4" jacks, black
    fuzzy carpet covering, and the drivers
    feature didymium magnets to save weight
    and drive up cost.

    The 1x12 is sort of a cube, but the 2x10
    is vertically arrayed, although you could
    tip it on its side
