The Celestion G12M-65 Creamback Replacement Speaker Cabinet Driver 8 Ohm is a replacement professional speaker cone designed to be used within guitar cabinets. Developed in the mid-sixties, 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.
The main features of the Celestion G12M-65 Creamback Replacement Speaker Cabinet Driver 8 Ohm include:
Swapped out some greenbacks for these and much prefer the sound - much less painful and still with plenty of oomph. More of a difference than I was expecting after comparing the Celestion frequency response graphs.
Perfect match for my JTM 45. Lots of low end grunt and grind. Never flabby or farty. High end sparkles. The JTM45 has such a broad pallet of tone. From sparkling, chimey cleans to Monterey Pop saturated distortion. The G12M 65 Creamback marries perfectly with this amp. Using 2 of them in an open back cab. Biblical tone!
