The two new 1×12 guitar cabinets are designed to complement the company’s BluGuitar AMP1 amplifier, and both will be on display at the Bluguitar booth H16 in Hall 4.0.

To help their booth visitors better appreciate the NanoCab and FatCab, German guitarist and BluGuitar director Thomas Blug will be performing with the new cabinets on the Agora Stage twice-a-day, and the cabs will also be demo’ed at the company’s booth, set to an appropriate volume level.

Speaking of volume level, one guitar manufacturer opted out of last year’s Musikmesse event because they feel that noise levels were out of control! Thankfully, there aren’t any news of complaints so it seems that both the organizers and the manufacturers are now more aware of reducing noise to a tolerable level.

BluGuitar FatCab

The FatCab is a 1×12″ cabinet that replicates the sound and tone of a 4×12″ cabinet at a lower volume, ideal for smaller clubs and stages. The press release says, “The BluGuitar FATCAB is the result of Thomas’ continuous research to reproduce the character of sound delivered by a classic 4×12” cabinet with a significantly more compact 1×12” design. Continous fine tuning during numerous tours and concerts, Thomas was finally able to achieve this. FATCAB hosts just one single speaker that reaches the critical perfect operating point much faster, which results in a very lively tone.”

BluGuitar FatCab,

Like 4×12″ cabinets, the FatCab is meant to provide defined and dynamic bass frequencies, even when you set the volume low. You can also crank up your amp to get the air movement and lower mid-emphasis of the 4×12, without the weight and other hassles.

BluGuitar NanoCab

The new NanoCab is another 1x 12“ guitar cabinet, designed to have the smallest possible size and lightest possible weight, while still delivering the sound expected from bigger cabinets. It is said to be inspired by the FatCab, although this one focuses on finding the balance between portability, reliability and sonic performance. Interesting features of this cab include dual ports designed for improved bass-response, and it has a removal back cover for switching between “Closed Back” and “Open Back” configurations.
