Up for sale is a mint condition Benson Amps 212 speaker cabinet. It is unloaded, so no speakers included. It will come with hardware needed to install the two speakers of your choice. It is wired for 16 ohm load (two 8 ohms speakers wired in series) with the existing wires that come with the cabinet. However, if you had two 16 ohm speakers, you can still wire it in parallel with the help of some extra wire. This is how I had it wired up. Two 8 ohm speakers is the easiest and it‘s ready to go for that.

Notes on condition: This has been inside my smoke free home, never gigged or even transported after I took delivery in July of this year. It has standard black tolex with oxblood grill cloth. I cannot find any scuffs on the tolex. The handles are in working order and cosmetically look great. It is very sharp. Benson cabinets are built like tanks using solid pine. They are a huge, living part of your sound. The way they resonate and project the sound is incredible.

Dimensions and weight:

34” tall, 18.5” wide, 10” deep

Weight of the unloaded cabinet is about 30lbs. Most speakers are 7-10lbs unless you are going with a Neo speaker of some kind. Assuming you are looking to buy this to pair with a Benson amp head, some potential speakers that are known to go well with Benson Amps are their in-house Benson speakers made by Weber, Celestion G12H-30, Amperian V.S.O.P., Celestion Gold, and Fane A60. If you want a light-weight option to consider, the Mojotone BV-Neo speakers weigh about 5 lbs and sound killer with my Benson Vincent. There are no speakers for sale in this listing, just passing along some helpful information.

Pricing: Item is priced competitively. A new loaded Benson Amps 212 cabinet is $1149 with base tolex. New, unloaded directly ordered from Benson with Base tolex is $900. You will be getting this cabinet for less than the cost of ordering an unloaded Benson 212 directly, and you won’t have to wait 2-3 months to get it. And it is essentially brand new.

Finally, please check my feedback and buy with confidence. It will be shipped promptly and professionally in the cabinet’s original packaging from Benson. Feel free to ask any questions you may have and thanks for looking!
