Wood glue and band clamps and you’re good to go. The Rolex in the corner won’t be perfect but if you get an insane discount then it wouldn’t bother me.

Bummer! That rabbet joint that Bogner uses seems prone to breaking in transit. I've seen it on other used cabs and personally had it happen to an Uberschall head I bought. It's a far cry from Marshall's finger joints.

Yeah it makes me second guess this entire thing as I'm pretty sure it was shipped in the same box/packing process as buying a new bogner cab which is clearly not enough support.

I don't think SW is giving a discount although I didn't ask. They offered a full refund after verification of my pictures.

I sent them today and I did give them a little hassle asking if ups will be picking this up from my house as I can't imagine fitting this in the box inside my car.

Not to mention I dont have a dolly and really not trying to carry this monster into a store. This whole thing sucks ass.

Probably.

But idk, some other guys mentioned on rig talk (one of them being a big cab builder) that I really need to take everything apart and there could be much more damage that I can't even see. Saying the baffle is probably toast and some other things that I don't even know about.

The weight of the speaker magnets could have affected the baffle or the speaker frames. Who knows without opening it. What a headache.

Yeah it has not been cool but maybe I posted this a little prematurely. They're just going to give me a full refund and have UPS come pick it up at my house or FedEx, I guess I was just hoping for them to offer me a significant refund and keep the cab and I can just try to fix it but now my only worry is buying a new cabinet. I really wanted the matching Uber cab but if that's how they ship these things I'm hesitant.
