second speaker

Post by JoeCon »

Guys

I have a 2 x 12 cab and currently only one speaker a Celestion Vintage 30 12inch. Without breaking the bank ($200) what other Celestion (others?) would you put with the Vintage 30??

Thanks..
In theory, theory is the same as practice. In practice it's different.

I had a 2x12 that had a WGS vintage 30 and Classic Lead 80.

Sounded very good.

I mated a vintage 30 with a Scumback h65 , sounded great together.
Make that the Scumback h75.

IMHO A G12H or G12-65 would be cool as they are very close in efficiency and dont sound like vintage 30's so they would give you something the Vintage 30 doesnt

Rivera does speaker shootouts like this one. You may find a tone you are looking for -

I liked the Jensen P12-N Alnico best. :)
