Tim2291 Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Hi all, I have a gallien krueger rbx 410, great sounding cab and I loved using it when I had a roadie to carry it for me, annoyingly 3 cones are making scratchy noises. I don't use the cab and keep saying I'm going to fix it... In reality I probably won't. Any idea what I could get for it in current condition if I was to sell it? I know its obviously not worth an awful lot, its an amazing cab and with new cones will serve someone well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 I think there's a GK 4x10 on ebay currently. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casapete Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 The cab is really only worth what someone will give you for it. With 3 maybe 4 speakers needing replacing, what you’ll get for an empty not very lightweight cab is purely down to luck. Somebody with the same cab as yours where the speakers are sound but the exterior is tatty may be tempted to buy it in which case I’d guess at say £40 or £50. Unfortunately buying 3 or 4 new speakers for it is probably not financially viable for most folk, (and I’m a GK fanboi too!). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downunderwonder Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 Think of a number, halve it, halve it again and divide by 2. That's unlikely to be far from what you can get for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equally, if someone was happy to change the speakers, they'd practically have a brand new GK 410 for half the price (including the new drivers) of a new one! I think this has reinforced me keeping it for the time being as a coffee table! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're great cabs and sound amazing, but they also weigh more than a small family car! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is one of the main factors that will limit the appeal to potential buyers I’m afraid. The RBX weighs around 91lbs, whereas my GK Neo 410 is 64 lbs. Quite a difference. Couple that with the move away from big cabs and more people using alternatives to backline, big old stuff (however good) is now hard to shift/ cheap to buy s/h. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big old stuff that works is hts/ctb. Big old stuff that has nearly all its drivers broken, you can't give away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
