Celestion G12 EVH Guitar Speaker, 8 Ohm

I put this in my Fender Blues JR. Though the stock Eminence speaker sound fine, the powerrating at 75 watts always seemed high for a 15 watt amp. After doing some research comparingdifferent Celestion speakers. I decided on this one for a couple reasons. First, the power ratingat 20 watts was closest to my amps 15 watt output. (I have read it really is a 25 watt speaker)Second, this model is still made at the UK plant. And hey, Eddie VanHalen was involved.Now for the tone OMG! Out of the box the tone is awesome. I have played on it quietly forabout 9 hours so far. I can already tell the difference, there is a nice break up with distortion.The cleans are crystal clear. The bottom end and mids are well defined.Can't wait to crank it up a little. But, since I live in apartment it will have to wait tillpractice tonight!

I've tried several speakers with my Mesa 5:25 express, I didn't like the vintage 30 in an open back. Best speaker for low wattage amps. Beautiful clean and best overdrive tone I've heard with my Mesa combo. And made in England, it's like a good greenback 25 with evh logo.

At rehearsal my speaker blew out and I needed a new one. I've heard of Eddie Van Halen (who hasn't) and I think he knows what good sound is. I don't really like the band, but I love this speaker. I put it into a Fender Hot rod Deluxe and it sounded good right off. After a few rehearsals, it sounded even better. I don't turn up to real loud levels, and if you do then this speaker, rated at 20 watts, might not be for you unless used in multiples to spread the watts around. I bought two, one for the HRD and the other for the extension speaker and they play all the highs, lows and midrange you could want. No buyers remorse.

I bought this to replace the stock speaker in a JCM 900 and it immediately added harmonics and bottom end that I thought it had been missing for years. I put it into a Marshall DSL40c with equally great results. I then put it into a Fender Deluxe and it sounded so good I bought another for that amp too. I left the alnico cream back in the DSL40c but the EVH greenback immediately had me rocking regardless of the amp it was in.

Speaker sounds fantastic! To anyone who is wondering this speaker is rated at 15 Ohms as is stated in the description. Not the typical 16 Ohms. I contacted Celestion tech support and they said no problem whatsoever using for 16 Ohm amp speaker.

In case you didn't know it, the EVH G12 is a Heritage Greenback with an EVH label. The EVH labeled speaker usually sells at a healthy discount compared to the regular Celestion.These speakers have a tight low end, smooth highs and have that classic sound we're all familiar with. Great, great speaker - clean and dirty. Celestion G12 EVH Guitar Speaker, 16 Ohm
