Current Fender 4x12 cabs?

[djpatb]

Anyone use 'em, or heard 'em in person?

I just noticed that MF and Sweetwater are selling Fender Super Sonic and Machete 4x12's for $599.
(But the Super Sonic 2x12 is $699 for some reason.)
Sounds like a good deal for V30 loaded cabs. And the dimensions listed are pretty big: 36" tall, 18" deep, 33" wide.
Anyone have any experience? Thanks.

Are those the boxed dimensions? If not, those are huge cabs. Pretty interesting.

Those are the dimensions that Fender has listed on their site too. I wonder if they're made like old Sunn cabs. They are front loaded I believe. 36" tall could be with casters, but 18" deep? That's bigger than my Orange.

I had an older tone master cab which is similar to the supersonic cabs. Excellent cab, front loaded v30s, smaller footprint , easier to man handle. You can find them used for practically nothing.

I believe those are boxed dimensions and the actual size is around 30x30x14. Still a great price for well constructed cabs with v30s

Yea, I agree. Thats gotta be boxed.
You'd think Fender's site would have the actual dimensions of the cab though.

Ah, I was looking at the straight cabs before.
The slant cabs have much more believable dimensions listed.
30x29.25x14.
