Seemingly twice as loud as anything else at the same power level, the 16 ohm Vintage 30 guitar speaker handles massive overdrive sounds with ease. Tight bass, fat mids and a smooth, harmonically rich top end makes the Vintage 30 an excellent 4 x 12 loudspeaker.
Celestion Vintage 30 12" 16 Ohm Guitar Speaker 60W
Back in 1986 a new breed of hard rock player was on the rise. To meet the demands of the players and their increasingly 'hot-rodded' amplifiers, Celestion set out to develop a modern speaker, capable of handling much more power and overdrive. To achieve this, Celestion coupled their 'H' magnet (the closest in performance to Alnico) with a new cone and voice coil employing contemporary materials.
Celestion's most revealing speaker, the Vintage 30 features enormously detailed and complex overtones, a warm low-end, a famously rich vocal mid-range and a beautifully detailed top-end. Used singly to reveal the complexities in hand-wired boutique amps, or in quartets for a wonderfully intricate vintage 3D crunch, the Vintage 30 sound has been captured on thousands of recordings from a diverse range of notable players including Slash, Steve Stevens and Peter Frampton.
