Super light, but a bit picky sounding

bananu7 02.03.2019

The elephant in the room is the weight - yes, it's absurdly light. For a 1x12", that makes for a really portable cab. I can only imagine the day-n-night difference in a 4x12".

That being said, the sound it produces is... picky. It's generally rather bright and open sounding, but might lack downright punch and power in some contexts. I ended up keeping it, and buying a V30s-loaded 2x12, which has absolutely incomparable bass output at LOWER volumes than that.

I would say that it's a great speaker on its own, but you need to be careful and informed about the sound characteristics. If you're unsure about what speaker to buy (especially for a 1x12" or 2x12"), a regular greenback or V30 might be a much safer bet, which would also be easier to trade for something else later. That being said, it's a great speaker that can sound magnificent given proper guitar, amp and player.

I'm giving it 4/5 for sound because it's simply not nearly as straightforwardly good as other Celestion offerings, which seem to sound amazing regardless of what you pair them with.

Phenomenal!

I swear by my hands, this is the best thing that ever happened to me. I replaced my chnese "V-Type" speaker with this one, the combo amp opened up, sounds more vintage, and it weighs a lot less.

Incredibly buttery and smooth. Increiblemente cremoso. Celestion total.

This is my 4th Neodynium speaker and by far my favorite.

SPEAKER

Kolibrick 05.02.2023

got myself a evh 5150 iconic combo, and long story short, the built in speaker kinda sucks. After trying forever to get the cover of that thing i finally managed, but only after destroying the backplate. After that the speaker swap was so easy. You unplug the old one, remove the screws it out put this one in put the screws in and plug it in. DONE!
At first it sounded unusual witch is normal since the speaker makes a huge difference to the tone of an amp. I had to tweak my amp a little and had it sounding really good.
It's a good speaker if you want something a little different from your usual vintage 30.
it also goes really well with the evh 5150 iconic combo, should you manage to get lather one open.
