Wondering why you only offer a Slant Helios 4x12

Hi John, We offer (and always had) both slant and straight Helios 4x12 versions. What made you believe we didn't? I'd be curious to follow up on that source...
We also offer now a 2x12 Helios cab. Has a V30 + Creamback 65 in it.
Thx Andy

Sweetwater only seems to carry the slant style. Never seen the straight front for sale

Ah well they do carry them. Not sure why it's not listed though... But they or any other Bogner dealer can get them just by requesting it. MAP on the 412 Helios straight is also a bit less too.

Hey Andy,
Since you're here.....I have two Bogner cabs with S&P grills. Both rearloaded. If I wanted to get a black grill assembly to swap one out, do you guys sell that?
Thanks!

Hi JPH, Yes you can on most cab models. I'm assuming you mean a 4x12 here? Best to call in to the shop and speak to Charley and he can get you specifics if not 4x12s, cost, etc...
Thx Andy

Hey Andy,
Another question: I am getting rid of my old school Mesa Recto over-sized angled cab since I find I love my two Bogner cabs better. I have an Uberkab that is rear loaded that I ordered last May that I love, and another Bogner cab with an X pattern of V30's and G12H-75 Creambacks which is my secret sauce cab that I ordered not long after, also rear loaded. I'm ruminating on getting either a straight V30's cab, or another Uberkab, but I was wondering about the REAL difference between the front loaded stock Uberkab, and a rear loaded one. I got the other two rear loaded because I was always under the impression that that was the more traditional sound, and you got more of the tone of the cab in the mix, and that they are less dimensional. What's the real scoop on the difference between front vs. rear loaded? I play metal, but I also play a ton of straight rock with my cover band, so maybe the straight V30 cab cab would be a smarter add to my collection for those types of gigs. I was firm in my rear loaded mentality until one of my buddies raved on and on about the standard front loaded cabs. Thoughts? (before I go and lay down my cash)

Hey JPH, I'd say the UberKab will handle the low end stuff better especially for drop tuning heavy stuff and will handle a bit more wattage. The standard 412 will probably focus bit more towards the mids. Hope that helps. -Andy
