Epiphone 4x12 Cabinet: Cabins And Cabinets
Although the grill has been removed out of shame, Dave Chale has some pretty good things to say about the Epiphone 4x12 cabinet that his band Cabin uses. Sure, it's not a hand-wired Marshall or VOX cabinet, but at the end of the day it gets the job done. It's not too shrill, and it's not too muddy. There's no need to take its face off*.
* Unless the face is removed in exchange for the face of a criminal in order to infiltrate his organization.
PATRICK OGLE: There is a little amp then?
DAVE CHALE: Yeah. Absolutely. It is an Epiphone cab which we -- Eddie doesn't like to broadcast...
BILLY LEASE: Yeah.
DAVE CHALE: So he took the grille off.
BILLY LEASE: [LAUGHS]
PATRICK OGLE: Well now here ooh Epiphone.
BILLY LEASE: [LAUGHS]
DAVE CHALE: But it's -- But in Epiphone cabinet's defense, it's actually a really awesome-sounding cabinet. It's got lots of tight low end and it's one of the things. I mean guitar amps, the high end and the tightness in the low end are the two things you look for in cabinets, so you don't want an amp that's too bright, and just, you know, piercing on your ears. We also don't want them jus to, you know, too low-end [OVERLAPPING].
PATRICK OGLE: So basically because that's what these are for.
BILLY LEASE: Yeah.
DAVE CHALE: Exactly. That's what that guy's for over there. We also, you know, you don't want the bass coming out of the amp blowing over what's coming out of the bass amp, but you want some power too so this is, you know, it's one of those things you got to find to hack the medium so, and that amp really actually did pretty good job, and probably it only last a few couple of years, but for a couple of years, you know, I don't remember how much it was.
PATRICK OGLE: [OVERLAPPING]
DAVE CHALE: Yeah. Exactly. You buy a couple of those.
