Phil Jones Compact C2 Bass Cabinet RD

As a touring musician who's having around 30-40 gigs a year, plus additional sessions and rehearsals on top of that I wanted to have something that can easily be transported around and could be used on every occasion. First I was considering this small box, but I just didn't believe it was going to be loud enough with a drummer, so I decided to go for his big brother, the C4. Paired with a Warwick Gnome I-Pro it had enough juice to blow away anyone in any given situation, but I was really thinking about what this smaller, even lighter package can do.
Eventually I pulled the trigger on the C2 and it was used in tandem with the C4, giving enough power to destroy any skeptical thoughts who were laughing at the size of my rig. It was insane what a combined package of these could deliver...
I was curious however how the C2 would work alone during a gig or a rehearsal, and once in a while I took a risk leaving the C4 home and just going solo with the 2x5" cab, because why not...
I have to say, it is shocking how defined and loud this small box can be, while maintaining clarity at the same time. It would probably not stand a chance against two loud guitarists rocking 4x12" cabs or against a trigger happy drummer blasting everyone away, but under normal circumstances it is nothing to be ashamed of. It can hold its ground just fine and it won't destroy your back transporting it from A to B.
Just like with every PJB product, the quality is top notch, this thing is rock solid, and you can connect it with speak-on or 6.5 inch jack cables as well. You even get a free black cover delivered with it, which is a nice touch.
All in all, I can only recommend this product. It's one of the best purchases I've made so far, apart from the PJB C4 of course.
What can I say? I think it's high time every bassist considered downsizing...
