Barefaced Compact 1st Generation 15" Cab 8ohm - *SOLD*
£250
Nottingham


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I have this listed on eBay at £300, so this price is only for BCers.

 

These are awesome cabs: huge power-handling capability, yet incredibly light, thanks to the construction and clever design.  

 

It can be really loud if you want it, but it gives the same transparent delivery even at home-use volumes.  I'm only getting rid of this one as I need something smaller - I could do with a bit more floor-space in my studio!  I need hardly add that I'm planning to get another Barefaced, but this time a One10, so I'm not interested in trades - sorry.

 

The covering on these cabs is very hard-wearing and cannot be torn like carpet or Tolex, so it looks really great.  There are some tiny white marks which are almost impossible to catch on camera, and one nickel corner protector has a small ding (pictured).  It's mostly seen home use, but it's been out for a few jams in the two years I've had it.

 

Clearly, I would much prefer collection (from Mapperley in Nottingham) - you can play through it using my bass and head or bring your own - but (for a contribution to petrol) I'm willing to travel up to 50 miles from Nottingham to meet up if that's what you prefer.  I could potentially courier it, but delivery would be at your own risk and cost.

Likewise - had mine from the beginning of Barefaced and used it with many different amps.

 

Needless to say they all sounded great, and the lightweight design was a game changer for me.

Anyone who buys this won’t be disappointed ( and I’m really tempted to get it myself, for pure

overkill of course.)

 

GLWTS.

This would be great with my Tecamp combo. How much would shipping be? 

I’ll do some research and get back to you by DM.
