Gotta make room (and cash) for baby stuff! I'd like to sell my Schroeder 1212 cab.
Description: Two Eminence twelves rated at 500w each, one firing front, one at an angle inside the cab. This is the original model with regular (not neodymium) speakers. Tweeter - over the years these cabs have been sold with a few different tweeters - this has the original "100 Watts titanium tweeter horn", which informally can be recognized by its elongated rectangular shape (more recent cabs come with a more square or rounded tweeter). Carpet finish. I bought the cab new via direct shipping in January 2005. Serial no. 1212/135II (or something like that, it's hand-written).
Condition: Very clean. It has been to only 4 gigs since I bought it new in January '05. Other than that, it has sat, rarely played, in my (no-smoking, no-pets) apartment.
Sound: I would describe it as having very powerful lows and midbass that projects well even outdoors, with a little bit of upper treble snap from the tweeter, and subdued upper-mids. I like a lot more upper-mid bite, so I can't really use this cab standalone. Personally I quite like it paired with a brighter cab, but at that point I've been realizing I'd just as soon leave it home since my EA CXL-112L is a bit more portable and usually loud enough for me. It's reputedly very similar to the 1210 model that unleashed absurd amounts of Talkbass hype and backlash... the 1212 is reputedly just a little darker-sounding than the 1210. I have not done a direct comparison.
Size: 23.5"x16"x16". Weight: claimed to be 54 lbs, but my bathroom scale says 58 lbs, give or take.
It's at bottom right here:
... no I am not selling the EA cabs, those are the ones I'm keeping :-)
If anyone's interested, I can take more / better pictures on request, and maybe even attempt a recording if I can get my damn software working again.
I would really prefer a local pickup, but for you guys, I could ship :-)
New, current models go for $739 plus shipping; I recently saw one go on ebay for $470 plus shipping, so I'm using that as my starting price.
