TT Diffusor 12" - Standard

The 10" that thinks it's a 12". This speaker was developed to recapture the legendary sound of Celestion's 1970s 10s - a 10" speaker with a surprisingly meaty tone.Low in output but with the weighty low-end balance of a 12", the G10 Greenback features a complex, creamy mid-range and smooth, vintage top-end.In small combos this speaker adds real class, and when combined in a 4x10 gives rise to a raunchy, full-bodied tone, rich in low-end thump.

Tested by Tube-Town: The Celestion 10" Greenback may not have the sonic range of its big brother - which is of course physically impossible - but it still delivers a full sound that is a bit more restrained in the highs than the 12" Greenback, making it sound rounder and softer in the highs, even with more overdrive in the sound.
All in all, the Celestion 10" Greenback is a true rock and blues speaker that we would use in open cabinets or combos to get the most out of the speaker. Do not use closed cabinets that are too small, as the speaker needs to breathe, otherwise the "British touch" that the speaker has will be lost. The 30 watt power rating also gives the speaker a bit more headroom than the 12" Greenback, making it a bit more flexible to use than the original.

It's hard to escape the sound of the G12H, just listen to any Hendrix recording and chances are you'll be hearing a whole raft of them powering the guitar out of the mix.

These faithful re-creations capture the unmistakeable mojo of late 60s rock guitar tones. Unsurpassed in a 4x12 for cranking out towering, huge power chords, the Heritage Series G12H (55) features the 55c/s 'bass' cone. This model is famous for its thick syrupy tones, with a deep growling back end, densely complex mid-range and a finely detailed top end.

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.

Following the great reviews we received for the Gold 12", we realised there was also a need for a speaker that conveyed the Alnico mellowness of the original Blue, with the speed and response of a 10" driver.The G10 Gold is the ultimate 10" speaker, blending unmistakable Alnico class with a rich low-end, creamy mid-range and vintage chiming top-end. Springy, warm, revealing and highly expressive, it can be used singly or in pairs to add a classy sheen to any amp, or in a 4x10 configuration for higher volume depth, warmth and shimmer, with less of the boom associated with 4x12 cabinets.

Headroom, clarity, balanced response, power...
These terms have become synonymous with a vintage American design that is known and sought the world over.  WGS now pays tribute to this classic with our WGS12L. However like all of our designs, we didn't set out to make a clone.  With this model we paid extra special attention to the details, producing a speaker that delivers that same even response without sounding sterile and lifeless.  Boasting a cast frame, 2.5" voice coil and a 200 watt rating, and clocking in at 18 pounds, this beast is loaded for bear.  As a welcome addition to the WGS fleet, this speaker is definitely our battleship.

Note from the boss: "We compared both the EVM 12L and the WGS 12L in an 806 cabinet and it was almost impossible to tell them apart. The WGS 12L is a great alternative to the original and we recommend it without reservation as a perfect replacement for the EVM 12L."

Finally, the wait is over. We have created a 10" speaker that captures all the tone and mojo of our extremely popular 12" Green Beret.   The Green Beret 10 boasts the same midrange push, articulate top end and warm, harmonically rich breakup of its larger namesake.  It also sports an impressive amount of low end for a 10" speaker.   With a 1.5" voice coil and a paper former, this speaker drips with vintage tone.    If you've been looking for classic British tone in a 10" speaker the Green Beret 10 delivers.

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.

The P10R-F was designe in cooperation with Fender for the reissue of the Fender Bandmaster.
The main difference compared with the original P10R is the lower sensitivity of 92,5 dB and the much lower resonance frequency of 87,3.
Also the top end is smoother and less harsh which makes the speaker a little bit softer in tone.

The Liverpool 1275 is the classic British rock tone,inspired by tones from the 80’s. A complex, thick and vocal midrange cuts through the upper-register, while nice, full, lower-mid grunt completes the warm, gutsy, tight lows. The highs, while clear, open and articulate remain warm and ear pleasing.

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!

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.

This sweet sounding speaker has a superbly balanced sonic signature that imparts a vintage musicality to your tone. Clean sounds have just the right amount of upper-mid chime and HF sparkle to add clarity and definition. Crank it up for a sizzling overdrive and some raw rhythmic grind, but expect a little extra definition and note separation for your searing, single note lead lines thanks to some neodymium magnet magic.

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, we set out to develop a modern speaker, capable of handling much more power and overdrive. To achieve this, we coupled our 'H' magnet (the closest in performance to Alnico) with a new cone and voice coil employing contemporary materials.
Our 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.

We recommend the GE 5751 as a replacement or upgrade for 12AX7/ECC83 tubes in the input stage of guitar amplifiers (V1 position). Whether your amp is low or high-gain, the GE 5751 provides a full, warm sound with clean bass. These tubes generate a high k2 content, making them ideal for those who prefer a rich sound.
However, the 5751 should not be used in cathode follower stages (CF) specifically designed for 12AX7/ECC83 tubes.

Superior medium-mu small signal twin triode with high transconductance. May be used instead of 12AX7/ECC83 in first gain stage of various amps for a more linear, vintage response.

• Originally designed for use in audio preamplifiers requiring low microphonics and good linearity, such as Fender "Tweed" Series
• Perfect replacement for any 6072/12AY7 type
• Relabeled Electro-Harmonix vacuum tubes are used by many OEMs in their amplifiers

The G12M Greenback is perhaps the definitive vintage Celestion ceramic magnet guitar speaker. Developed in the mid-sixties, it was quickly adopted by players like Hendrix, Clapton, Beck and Page, who typified the louder and more aggressive blues rock playing styles that came to characterize that era.The G12M-65 Creamback produces the familiar woody G12M tone, but handles greater power making it ideally suited for today's amps, when a vintage tone is desired. The increased power handling brings with it low end grunt complementing the warm and vocal mid range, crunchy upper- mids and sweet, refined highs.
