Naetharu Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) Hi folks, Just picked myself up a Gallien Krueger MEB-410 cab (the cheaper one rated at 400-watts) for £140 on Thomann. I thought I would pop a link and give you folks the heads up on the deal as it seems a cracking price for what it is.

If I didn't have too many cabs I would buy one or two at that price! Now showing unavailable. Can't help wondering if Thomann made a mistake in their pricing. Love the GK sound. I recently bought an MB500 head, reckon it would sound great thru that 4x10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary mac Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 You did well there it would seem. I think the same cab on the GAK site is £333 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How're you finding it so far? MB500 is a really great amp for the money and so portable. Really liking the GK sound. The Fusion (valve preamp) versions are highly rated too.

Woodinblack Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 And then strangely they did. When you posted it, I added one to my cart, noticed they were not currently available but then added it anyway. Checked out. Didn't hear anything for a while, then I got an email from them about a week later saying that they were no longer available and I could have a 3% discount of another equivalent cab, but of course there weren't any. So I replied and said there weren't any and I would prefer to wait, if they were getting any more in. They replied and told me that the product was no longer available and wouldn't be again. But they didn't cancel my order, so I didn't either and kind of forgot about it. Yesterday, I got a text saying my product had shipped. If I go back to the page, it no longer exists, and if you search for it you can't find it, but apparently they have shipped it. I have a tracking number and everything. I wonder what will turn up!

yorks5stringer Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 (edited) As it no longer exists, maybe, just maybe, you'll get an empty box...? If however you get said cab, then I commend you for your persistence and chutzpah! Edited December 3, 2015 by yorks5stringer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrtcat Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Maybe somebody returned one so they had one in stock again. Either that or they did a stock take and found one they didn't realise they had. Either way you win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodinblack Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 And it turned up. Sounds great, sadly has a dent on the front side, so I guess its going back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naetharu Posted December 6, 2015 Author Share Posted December 6, 2015 Tbh given how nice these sound (I got to gig mine Thursday and it was fantastic) I'd seriously think about keeping it unless the dent is more than cosmetic. The price we paid is insain given what we got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CamdenRob Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Is this the neo one? I had a 112 for a while and it sounded great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodinblack Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 You do have a point, it was pretty cheap. I contacted Thomman, and they asked if I would accept a discount, but haven't said what yet: [IMG]http://i405.photobucket.com/albums/pp133/alienrat/4cd5003a-18b0-4117-900e-9982cb83c665_zpsx0fhwkzs.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i405.photobucket.com/albums/pp133/alienrat/5f406f06-cc28-42d3-b0a8-bc14e85aa116_zpsflyahalr.jpg[/IMG] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grenadilla Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Paint It Black ! Bill Wyman's amp is probably more beat-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassManGraham Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 OK that's an absolute bargain price, (probably an error which Thomann will not be repeating). I could not get one! HOWEVER if it was sold as NEW and not damaged B STOCK then I would be saying to Thomann knock the £40 off to make it a cold £100 (but settle for no more than £120). Worth a try? Black felt tip permanent marker pen would disguise the blemishes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary mac Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 If that was the only damage, I think I would be inclined to repair/disguise it myself and accept a discount. You will have got yourself a seriously good bargain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CamdenRob Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 It looks superficial rather than impact damage? I'd be inclined to live with it and take the discount Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomBass Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Yeah take the discount and enjoy the road worn mojo of the cab, well some will pay more for the same to be done to their guitars. Cracking deal you got there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodinblack Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Well, they would only give me €20, but as people say, it is still a good deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorks5stringer Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Make a counter offer as it will cost them £15 to take it back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Starr Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Four speakers would cost you £200 and that looks like Tough Cab (paint) rather than Tolex so really easy to touch up. Keep it or sell it on to someone here. you could probably play it for a year or two and get your money back when you sell it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40hz Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 I had the 800w version of this cab and the paint on it flaked off if you so much as glanced at it. That little mark will be the least of your worries after a few gigs! Great sounding cab though and for that money it's a no brainer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
