Mesa/Boogie Road King Slant Speaker Cabinet (300 Watts, 4x12")

The Road King 4x12 Slant gets it's design foundation largely from the Rectifier 4x12 Slant, adding a dado-joined vertical panel in the center of the cab to isolate the closed-back side of the cab from the open-back side. Finished with a custom-tuned, one-piece rear panel spanning both sides, Celestion Vintage 30s are loaded in the closed side and Mesa/Boogie exclusive Celestion Custom 90s in the open side, offering amazing tonal variety and application flexibility. A side-by-side comparison with a 4x12 Rectifier Slant Cab showcases the Road King cab as being slightly tighter and more focused in the lows with a little more prominent midrange and sparkle in the high-end from the open-back influence. Combined with the cabinet-switching option built into the Road King Head or Combo, OR using an external cabinet switcher with your favorite amp, dynamic live performance, composition and mic'ing options are endless.

SLANT-style Road King 4x12 Cabinets offer a 'monitor' effect due to the top speakers sloping up toward your ears. This can be a benefit when playing live. Other players prefer the STRAIGHT-style cabinets with all speakers attached to a one-piece baffle and all facing the same direction, effectively 'coupled' for maximum punch and frontal projection. Regardless of Slant or Straight, if you are playing a Road King 4x12, your tone has authority, clarity and detail that only MESA Road King 4x12 Cabinets deliver.
