A worthy successor to the Vintage 10, the G10 Vintage is a 10" speaker with bags of attitude. Using powerful ceramic magnets and the same voice coil design as the Vintage 30, the G10 packs an impressive punch with its 60W power handling.With the fast response of a 10" but with the strong and creamy vocal tones of a 12", the G10 is the ideal choice to add depth to hollow- sounding amps, or for players who want to get humbucker-type girth from single-coils. Can be used singly to add vocal warmth to small valve combos, or in quartets for a weightier but still lively attack:

Combining a hemp cone specifically chosen for its tonal character and a medium-weight ceramic magnet, the G12M-50 Hempback represents an exciting new development in Celestion’s never-ending pursuit of outstanding tone. Distinctive and well-defined, the Hempback delivers a balanced low end, plenty of mid-band character together with smooth, silky highs.
Targeted for use in American voiced amps, for example in combos such as a Deluxe Reverb® or Blues Jr.®, to deliver true American-flavoured tone and cleans that are second to none. Load up a Hempback for a sweet and smoky sound that’s musical and responsive, and let your hemp tone shine through.

Tube-Town's Quick-Test (as of Feb 2023):
Speakers with hemp cone have been around for years, but somehow they never really caught on. To our European ears they usually sound a bit muffled, sometimes even dull and also a bit lifeless, which is why the expectations for the Celestion Hempback were not particularly high, but the surprise was then all the greater.
The Hempack was tested in an open 112 REX powered by a TT JC18. The guitar used was a Tele with hot pickups. In this configuration, the speaker delivered wide and balanced sound right out of the box, no overemphasis or annoying frequencies.
The bass was clear, the Tele's low strings came through strong yet defined, the mids were round but not overbearing, and the highs were convincing with a pleasant yet restrained presence. And even at gain setting 10 there was no cause for complaint (as long as you didn't turn the treble control on the amp too far to the right). The sound was round and without sawing highs, but still had its own character and enough bite to assert itself in a band context.

Conclusion: In the environment specified by Celestion (open cabinet or combo), the Hempback can convince with a balanced sound image, and that with both clean and heavier sounds. It is fun to play it. The 50 watts of the speaker are perfectly sufficient for a variety of amplifiers and a sensitivity of 99 dB is not exactly little either, and the weight of 3.5 kg makes itself felt positively especially with combos, especially if you have to move them often.
So all in all: thumbs up.

Back in the late 60s, the G12H was created by fixing an 'H' type (heavy) magnet to the body of a G12M guitar speaker. Result: a speaker with more power and a different tonal balance: firmer bass and a more pronounced top end. So we added an 'H' magnet to the G12M-65 Creamback, create a speaker that delivers the sonic signature of a G12H combined with Creamback levels of power handling. The result is the G12H-75 Creamback. It delivers 75-watts of power handling with ease and has unmistakeable G12H tone, with a tighter low end than the G12M-65 Creamback and a punchier, more dynamic high end. The H magnet brings additional focus, body and girth to the Creamback tone. It thickens single notes, resulting in a highly articulate, vocal character. These additional characteristics mean that the G12H-75 Creamback offers exceptional performance when used for lead guitar and sounds massive loaded into a 4x12 cab!

Sacrificing none of the delicious musicality of your favourite Celestions, the Neo 250 Copperback is a neodymium speaker that supplies tons of tone without the signature cone break-up immediately associated with the classic Celestion growl.
It's definitely not the “brown sound”, but for those wanting more transparency and less midrange vocal intensity the Neo 250 reveals the best from your amplifier and playing without additional colouration. The speaker's unique response has a tight low end, neutral low mids, a clear, open upper-mid definition and well-controlled high treble, meaning you can shift from shimmering tubular-bell-like cleans to “flute-like” high gain with simply a tweak of the drive knob. Rated at a monstrous 250-watts, the Neo 250 works together with your amp to provide unparalleled dynamics, delivering all the headroom and touch sensitivity you could possibly need. And built with a neodymium magnet, you get all this power and tone weighing in at a modest 5.5lb (2.6kg)

With the Retro 10, we set out to build something with all the qualities we enjoy about our Retro 30 in a 10” speaker. It’s got a tight bottom, an articulate top end, and a nice low-midrange growl. It can be thought of as a distant cousin of the Green Beret 10, but with more low end, slightly more top end, and a shift in midrange characteristics.

Tube-Town Review: Due to the smooth cone used in the 10" WGS Green Beret, its top end is much more subtle compared to the original 12" Celestion Greenback G12M, but also to the 10" Celestion Greenback. However, the midrange is not overemphasized and the whole speaker sounds full and balanced, with a distinct "American touch" to the overall sound.
We recommend the 10" Green Beret for everything from blues to rock to modern metal, but less so for blackface-typical clean sounds, for which there are better suited 10" speakers. In order for the speaker to develop its full sonic spectrum, it should be used either in an open cabinet or combo, or in a large-volume closed cabinet. A closed cabinet that is too small will dampen the speaker too much and cut the sound.
The WGS 10" Green Beret is also a real upgrade for many budget combos that are equipped with inexpensive 10" speakers and often sound a bit thin and sharp, especially when it comes to harder tones.

12" seamed ribbed cone with a large ceramic magnet, the replacement for C12N.
Similar to the 12LC but with less output and a smoother yet balanced sound that retains headroom. Some nice compression is evident compared to the 12LC but not at the expense of headroom. Originally intended for studio or home use, many musicians claim it to be the closest to the original C12N from 4 and 5 decades ago.

The Neo Creamback is every ounce a Classic Celestion, delivering all the magical tone you’d get from a traditional Creamback. The difference is, it’s built with a neodymium magnet: making this speaker around half the weight of a traditional ceramic magnet speaker.Celestion’s engineers have developed a new and innovative way to better harness the mighty forces of the neodymium magnet, enabling us to create a guitar speaker that can deliver authentic Creamback tone with ease, while preserving the benefit of neodymium’s much lighter weight.You still get the low end punch, warm, vocal midrange and sweet refined highs the Creamback is famous for: push it hard and enjoy the ‘race-car growl’ that sets pulses racing. But pick up a cab that’s loaded with Neo Creambacks and you’ll see what makes this speaker truly different.

The G12M Greenback has evolved over the decades but still retains its essential, sought- after tone.Angus Young has been a Greenback devotee since the early days of AC/DC. This model is voiced with additional broad mid-range attack and restrained top-end to give a forward, punchy attitude to chords and a searing lead tone without fizz.With its well-controlled low-end it can be used singly in low-powered amps, or in multiples for high-power rock heads. It's an ideal speaker to bring drive and definition to modern high gain amps.
