SHOOTOUT! Celestion G12M-65 Creamback vs G12H-75 Creamback

Celestion

collapse expand iconDescription

The G12M Greenback is perhaps the definitive vintage Celestion ceramic magnet guitar speaker. Developed in the mid-'60s, it was quickly adopted by players like Hendrix, Clapton, Beck and Page, who typified the louder and more aggressive blues rock playing styles that came to characterize that era.

The G12M-65 Creamback produces the familiar woody G12M tone, but handles greater power making it ideally suited for today's amps, when a vintage tone is desired. The increased power handling brings with it low end grunt complementing the warm and vocal mid range, crunchy upper-mids and sweet, refined highs.

    I've always used V30s and wanted to try something different with more low mids. This speaker was the perfect choice! Made my mini rectifier 1x12 sound much bigger and got rid of the honk in that cab too.

  • Smooth!

    Installed in a 1x12 open back cab - smooth and warm but rocks at the same time - made in UK - just great tone!

  • Great Celestine speaker!

    Great sounding speaker. This speaker will upgrade just about any amp. The tone is pretty much spot on with a greenback, but capable of handling much more power. I have it in a Headstrong amp, and 2 of them in a Marshall JCM 800 2x12 cab..awesome tone, I can't recommend it enough.
