collapse expand iconDescription

The Suhr Hombre 2x12 cabinet brings back the beloved sound of vintage 2x12 cabs from the glory days of rock. With two Celestion V-type speakers, it delivers the low-end warmth and richness that filled stages in the '60s, letting your tones bloom with a room-filling ambience. Paired with Suhr's Hombre amp head, this cab unveils a cohesive sonic experience. After extensive testing, Suhr chose the exact same speakers used in the Hombre combo amp to carry over that balanced sound. The Hombre head's diverse palette - from sparkling cleans to smooth overdrive - shines through this cab with definition across the spectrum. From dark, brooding leads to chimey rhythms, you'll get incredible clarity without losing the huge, enveloping character. Housed in a resonant pine cabinet, the Hombre 2x12 cab captures the vintage vibe in look and feel as well as sound. For guitarists chasing the holy grail of classic rock and blues tone, plug into the rich, expressive world of the Suhr Hombre 2x12.

Celestion V-Type Speakers Balance Vintage Appeal With Modern Detail

The Hombre 2x12 cab is built around two Celestion V-Type speakers, delivering the warmth and personality that made Vintage 30s so coveted. With a strong low-mid thump and smooth, singing highs, these speakers impart the enveloping sound and rich overtones of the most iconic rock tones. But while they honor the past, V-Types also have the clarity and articulation to handle the Hombre head's diverse range of overdriven and clean sounds. Compared to a Vintage 30, the V-Type has a tighter and more focused low end as well as an extended high end that maintains detail when you dig into the strings. Pristine cleans ring out with chime, while saturated lead tones bloom with harmonic complexity. The V-Type is the perfect balance of vintage mojo and modern definition.

Cohesive Sound With Hombre Combo's Speakers

After extensive testing different speakers, Suhr chose the V-Type for the Hombre 2x12 to match the Hombre combo amp. Now you can get the same balanced, versatile sound whether you gig with the combo or separate head and cab. Tones translate seamlessly between the two setups, retaining the same touch sensitivity and tonal balance. And with two speakers instead of one, the 2x12 design enhances the richness and dimension of the core Hombre tone. The cab and combo pair effortlessly thanks to their shared V-Type speakers. Mix and match between them as needed for consistent sound and flexibility.

Classic Pine Cabinet Delivers Warm, Resonant Tone

The Hombre 2x12 is housed in a sturdy, great-looking pine cabinet covered in vintage tweed. Pine has been used in guitar amp cabinets since the early days thanks to its resonant properties that enhance tone. The wood adds its own organic flavor, imparting a warm, woody character that further enhances the smooth vintage vibe. And while the tolex-covered cab looks retro cool, it's built to withstand the rigors of transporting to gigs and long days on stage. The classic pine cabinet completes the vintage appeal of the Hombre 2x12, protecting the iconic V-Type speakers while contributing its own tonal magic.
