The Valve 212-OB Cabinet

The Valve 212-OB Cabinet

When you switch on your guitar and power up your amp, you want your audience to hear your sound in its most pristine form. The cabinet as a whole, and the materials that go into making it, have a pivotal impact on the sound of the amp. 
All our cabs come equipped with Celestion speakers and are made from 100% marine construction birch plywood, an extremely sturdy material with superior timbre. The speakers are mounted from behind using steel counterthreads that guarantee maximum durability and resistance to the wear-and-tear caused by vibrations and transit.
Choosing the right cabinet can make the difference between a poor tone and a dynamic and tuneful one depending on the power you need, where you're going to use it, the number of speakers, the type of speakers and the music you're playing.

The open back 212-OB cab is also equipped with Celestion Vintage 30 speakers. The open back design allows the sound to spread in almost all directions and gives your tone a wider and more tri dimensional response, suitable for smaller and mid venues where the audience is nearer to the stage.
It also allows you to "fine tune" your tone by adjusting the proximity to the walls thus changing the bass response and sound diffusion. 
This is a fantastic cabinet to be matched to all our amps if you want to avoid carrying a heavy 412 cabinet and still maintain the correct volume for medium large venues.
