How do you transport your cab? Casters, dolly, trolly?

I though I had already answered this....

They like it when I beat them with sticks though....

And I'm far too fat and important to carry anything heavy, kind'a like most singers I've worked with :)

A Peavey combo on a stage – now you’re just being ridiculous!

Personally, I think that the squirrels are the way to go, very resourceful animals……

[quote name='NancyJohnson' post='510696' date='Jun 10 2009, 10:23 PM']Going back to the original thread, I use a fishing trolley I got from Argos. If I don't use that, my drummer carries it out to the car (seriously). He's soooooo keen.

I have one of those argos fishing trollies which I used to use when I had an Ashdown rig. I don't use it anymore. Make me an offer if you're interested.

So you can stick them to the side of your fridge?

If anyone local to me would like a dolly I have a spare one here. I got it so I could move my dual Acme Low-B2 + rack rig in one go but since I switched over to my Barefaced cabs they're either so light that wheels are totally unnecessary or they already have wheels built in.

P.S. I wouldn't trust grey squirrels - more likely to get their mates to distract you with a brief song and dance routine whilst they whip your cab off to a secret location for the provision of bassy sustenance later in the season. The reds are a much safer bet but they're terribly fussy eaters, don't get them a kebab after the gig if you want them to come back next time.

Yep, that's the one. Heaviest/bulkiest that's been on it is a Marshall 4x12 [i]and [/i]a big cable box. No problem. Easily big (and deep) enough for my Mag 4x10.

The little fold down legs can be a pain the the arse (sometimes they just don't drop into place), but by and large, it's a fantastic little trolley. Weighs next to nothing. My old guitarist also used to use it at gigs to raise his cabinet up a bit.

Buy JLPs one!
