JerryJG, The G12H holds the low end a bit better than the G12M. It's better for more modern rock, whereas as the greenback does classic rock tones really well. It also has a nice smooth high end.
There wouldn't be a great of variety in the tone, other than the bottom, which will come out much stronger from the G12H. The G12H will louder on mids and highs to.
The suggestion of mixing V30 with G12H is a good one, I do that myself.
What tones are going for? What style of music do you play?

Sorry but you're definitely wrong with that dB info - a 3dB increase in speaker efficiency is the equivalent of doubling the amps power in term of volume - a 50 watt amp with a 100dB speaker is as loud as 100 watt amp with a 97dB speaker.
I've got two G12-75's (which are around 97 dB) in my Marshall cab at the min and my 18 watt head doesn't cut it when gigging but when I'm using my 1 x 12" with a Celestion Sidewinder in (one of the most efficient Celestion speakers ever built I believe, at around 103dB) any louder than 6 on the volume and I get told to turn it down!
