I have V30's in my Jubilee cab connected to my TSL100 and it's fantastic

I love my Vintage Celestions. You can go to Celestions website and they have a Tone selector where you can listen to clips comparing the different speakers.

i have a 4x 12 with G12H3O's and they give that awsome chunck to the lower mids. i also have a 2x12 with V30's and for hi gain tones they always
get the call I.M.O.,

coldsteal2 · 10-19-2008, 05:07 AM

i got Heritage G12H Greenbacks in my 1960A i also have
Heritage G12Ms and Vintage 30's in my combos
all are great sounding, but the G12H's are my favorites

HOT TUBES 70 · 10-19-2008, 11:40 AM

i think i have to agree with you coldsteal2 , most of the stuff i play is more in the
classic rock area, so the G12H 30S are a warmer sounding speaker to me , so for
me the G12H 30S are great sounding speaker when playing classic rock.

G12T-75's are stock in the JCM 2000's.

HOT TUBES 70 · 10-19-2008, 12:35 PM

not the best sounding speaker IMO... G12H 30S will wake that amp up !!!

Pearse · 10-20-2008, 08:19 AM

i have a 1960 cab with 1968 G12H's in it. They are 25 watts not 30 but there real loud and warm especially when cranked, classic rock at its best.

HOT TUBES 70 · 10-23-2008, 11:00 PM

classic rock at its best , i would agree !!!!!
A jacked up marshall !!! nothing sounds better

I think the 25 H's are the same as the 30's
the only difference is a heavier paper from what i read
but sound the same

If u compared the greenbacks with vintage 30s in a competition runing through a dsl100/ Cab x4 speakers..

To see which one cud produce the best sounds of classic 80s metal rock .. who would win?

considering , loudness, lower/top ends,tone and a clear distortion tone when pumped.

coldsteal2 · 10-25-2008, 06:32 PM

H's have better low end, and the 30's have better
midrange

For 80's metal, Vintage 30s > Greenbacks. Vintage 30s are tighter, louder, and hold a clear note when pumping. While greenbacks are my personal favorite, they self distort and muddy up a lot easier and might not be what your looking for in the metal deparment.

siiic man thanks ay

MonstersOfTheMidway · 11-03-2008, 10:42 AM

I use the Marshall/Celestion G12C speakers featured in the 425B series cabs. I like to calls these the Jimi Hendrix speakers since they were originally designed for the Hendrix signature series amp line from Marshall. These speakers sound great distorted or clean and can handle the high gain output of my JVM410h.

coldsteal2 · 11-03-2008, 03:23 PM

They are great, but the only way to get them is to buy
a Vintage Modern Cab or Jimi Hendix cab.
You can order them but they have to come from England
from the Marshall factory

nsureit · 11-11-2008, 07:41 PM

I like the combination of one Heritage and one Vintage in my TSL122.
