Mesa Boogie - EVM-12L Thiele Closed-Back/Ported Cabinet - Padauk Hardwood & Wicker

This is the Holy Grail of Mesa cabs, a vintage hardwood & wicker Thiele with original EVM-12L from 1986. When you consider this thing is around 30 years old it is in great shape. It was made using amazing 13" wide padauk boards. The condition is pretty good, but all the patina is also perfect to match a Mark head or combo from the era.

I have been looking for one of these for quite a while and was lucky enough to find an original matching pair. I struggled with keeping both but in the end I only need one. This auction is for one (1!) cab. If you are interested in the matching pair (numbered 1 and 2 inside) please let me know. I am a little reluctant to part with both but I wouldn't turn down the chance to keep this pair together for the right price. I have a photo with the pair stacked together but this list only includes the top one.

A new cabinet in this style from Mesa would be over $2,000, and that would not include the iconic Electro-Voice EVM-12L.

An original vinyl cover is included. Weight is 47.5lbs.
