Although it weighs only 5.7 lbs and is 7.5” wide the BP-800 is built with the ruggedness and precision needed to withstand all the rigors of live performance and the road. The appealing blue front panel is a quarter inch thick and CNC machined while the chassis is built from thick aluminum extrusion making it incredibly strong. All control knobs are PJB design solid aluminum billet for a high end look and feel.

The Power Output is 400 watts into 8 Ohms, and 800 watts into 4 ohms (maximum load). The dimensions are 7.5” wide x 2.5” high x 12.5 “deep.

PJB CAB 67 – 500 Watt Stackable Cabinet
The Cab 67 is a no-holds-barred 500 Watt powerhouse enclosure that will deliver the bottom end and add life to any live playing situation. It is a slugger as a stand-alone cabinet that turns massive when stacking two together.
The Cab 67 has six proprietary PJB seven inch drivers along with a three inch tweeter that together deliver a full dynamic range, perfect for any working or jamming bassist. It is crafted with robust internal bracing resulting in an extremely solid and roadworthy cabinet with built-in casters that make transporting a breeze. The bottom end is rich and punchy but never “boomy” and has a flat frequency response so any bass will sound accurately true.
Built in wheel wells and a recessed handle make the Cab 67 a snap to stack on top of one another. While it is a stellar performer with any bass amplifier the PJB BP-800 head is the perfect sonic complement to this cabinet. The potential shock wave created by two Cab 67’s and a BP-800 stacked together will exhilarate any playing situation yet, amazingly, stands only 54 inches tall!
