Yeah.. when i first miced up my Harley Benton 4*12 V30, i was like "WTF!??!".
Sounded like complete mud.. so i ended up using impulses on my recordings instead.
Then just thought i should check the screws, and sure enough, there was the problems.
Loosened up the back, checked the screws for the speakers = Loose as fuck, tight enough so that the speakers wouldnt rattle around, but loose enough to sound like shit.. so i tightened those.
Then i put the back on, tightened the screws, next check: the handles = Loose as fuck too! Put some electrical tape on the back of the handle to get an airtight seal, screwed those suckers back hard.
Then i miced it up again and tryed it out, and it sounded awesome!
I think that 99% of the people who dislike the sound of the HB-cabs is because of this.. shared it with some people on a Swedish guitar forum, and they loved how it sounded after that!
