2997.0. "BAGEND guitar cabinet info wanted" by WEDOIT::ABATELLI () Fri Nov 04 1994 07:08

    
    Does anyone have any information on "BAGEND" speaker cabinets? I'm
    inquiring for a friend who's looking into them, but really doesn't 
    know much about them (no...  it's not me   ;^) ). I just happen to 
    notice in the Music buyers rags (pick one of choice) and they seem 
    pretty expensive to me, but...    are they worth it?
    
    So, anyone have a clue on BAGEND guitar cabinets? My friend is looking
    into a single 12" extension cabinet to go with his 100 watt combo -
    FWIW.
    	
    
    	Many thanks in advance,
    				Fred

2997.1Check with Daddy's?CUPMK::WIEGLERFri Nov 04 1994 07:389
    
    Fred, I *may* be mistaken but I think I saw them once in Daddy's in
    Nashua. It could have been some other high end speaker cab, but I
    *think* it was BagEnd.  Now a used piece either, but several new units.
    
    	Hey, put a Fender logo on it, cover it in brown tolex and maybe it
        would sound good enough for *you*!
    
    	Nah.....

    Ummm... if it's the one I was thinking of it was a "Bogner" not a
    "BagEnd".
    
    They did have a Bogner in there.

    RE: BAGEND at DJM
    
    I had seen a BAGEND at DJM in Nashua, but it was a 15" cabinet. I don't
    remember how much it was though.
    
    	I was just curious if anyone had any experiences with this mfg.
    
    
    		Thanks again,

    Fred,
    
    I've never seen one myself, but Bass Player magazine rated 
    the BAGEND cab fairly high. I also remember thaqt it had a
    hefty price tag (tho it looked like it was built like the
    proverbial brick sh!+house!!) I think at one point they were
    giving them away in one of their contests (with an Eden amp).

          I have never worked with the guitar cabs but I own 4 BagEnd TA15C
    PA cabs. I think they are nuthin' less than AWESOME! Very expensive, 
    each cab was close to $800 each, but well worth the money. Built very
    well, these cabs are roadworthy and can take lots of abuse. The sound
    is crystal clear, and the dispersion is just incredible. If you have
    the bucks to spend, this is definitely the way to go.
