Compact and durable stereo 2x12 cabinet by Sonic (formerly in Wisconsin)

2 - 70 watt Celestion G-12M. Closed back - infinite baffle.
I don't have it in front of me as I write but I'm pretty sure it can be mono or stereo; but that's an easy mod for anyone.
Black front grill included (I think).

I used it as a stereo guitar cab and it's been great.
Sounds great, tough as nails construction, small enough to be nicely manageable on a luggage cart.
Excellent condition - despite the years.

These speakers get a bad rap online from people expecting greenback and vintage 30 tones.
These are Celestion's take on a fuller range sound, like the Electro Voice EV12 speakers popular at the time.
Creambacks sound similar to me.
Great sound for guitar or keyboards.

I used it with several amps and it was great with a 2 x 60 watt Rivera TBR-1 in stereo, and smaller amps in mono.
Lots of dynamic range. Loud AF but still sounds full at apartment volumes.

$250 is a great price but open to offers
Cash or Zelle only.
