Your Crate V212 2x12 Guitar Speaker Enclosure is built from the

finest materials and components available. This cabinet is loaded

with two Celestion

speakers and comes standard with casters,

steel handles, heavy duty metal tilt back legs, Switchcraft metal

jacks on a metal input plate, and hardware for “piggy back” mount-

ing of the V32H guitar amplifier head.

The tilt back stands allow the cabinet to slant back at a 40

angle

to improve your ability to hear yourself, especially on smaller

stages. Heavy duty fastening posts on the top of the enclosure are

provided for secure locking of the V30H amp head, resulting in a

piggy back combo amp that can actually be used in the tilt back

position.

The V212 also makes an excellent extension cabinet for any

Crate guitar amplifier with a minimum load of 8 ohms.

V212 GUITAR SPEAKER ENCLOSURE

The tilt back legs lock flat against the cabinet

when not in use - tighten the securing fasteners

completely to eliminate rattling.

Crate’s V32H amp head is designed to “piggy

back” mount onto the V212 enclosure. The V32H

has slide-out mounting hardware which lock onto

the posts on the top of the V212. Loosen the knobs

on the posts, slide the amp in place and lock down

the knobs.

The piggy-backed amp can be rolled around

on its casters by the amp head’s handle, but do

not try to pick the combo up by the amp head or

its handle.

The casters are to be removed before using the

cabinet in the tilt back mode. Swing each tilt back

leg into position and secure all hardware before

leaning the cabinet back. Do not allow the unit to

fall back on its own, rather, lower it into position.

(The cabinet should not be tilted back on slick or

smooth surfaces.)
