Celestion G12T-75 8 Ohm

I am using it in an old Marshall cabinet. I already have a vintage 30 in a DIY cabinet I made myself, and if I connect them both into my Carvin tube amp the sound is excellent. The vintage 30 is on the floor, and the Marshall cabinet with this speaker is above it as in a full-stack. Some people complain that it is too aggressive and mid-rangy and works only for metal an such. Guess what, in this combination I can play folk-rock in it and sounds excellent. What is true the Carvin V3M is a really versatile amp, so I guess it depends highly on the amp too. But is adds a nice beef to the Vintage 30's more bassy type of sound.

Hi! First off, just to make things clear, this is the first speaker i have ever bought seperately, but i know the sound i'm looking for, and also have i played thorugh many amps in my life.
*Sidenote, i'm using a stratocaster.
In my valve amp, sound is so great, literally- luscious, running it through the dirty channel with low gain. Has a very clear high end and overall really pleasing tone. Not too bright or too bassy.
So, my ''guitar'' guy, recently built a couple of combo amps without speakers in them (great thing that its built so simple you can just choose the speaker you want and replace it anytime) to sell for his close friends and customers. -I tried it with 2 different Fender speakers- the sound was just too bright for me. And for my surprise Vintage 30 also wasn't what i was looking for, but G12T was the perfect match as soon as i tired it. I guess you could call it's sound a little bit more 'modern', but only in a sense that lots of people are being told to look for the mysterious ''warm vintage tone'.
I love it

I know many people dislike the G12T-75 with passion. I'm not one of them! I find the T75 the best speaker Celestion has ever released! It has a very big tone with lots of bass and low mids, but without it being muffled. The highs are there too! It's an aggressive speaker and works perfectly with dirt tones, especially fuzz tones. If you are using a clean amp, use this speaker and your pedals will sound fuller and more aggressive. Can't recommend this enough!
As always great service and fast delivery by Thomann!

Nachdem ich im Laufe der Jahre einige Speaker in meiner 4x12er Box getestet habe und auch verschiedene Combos mit E-Voice und Celestion-Lautsprechern besaß, kann ich sagen, dass der G12T75 zumindest für den verzerrten Bereich für mich die erste Wahl ist. Er hat punchige Mitten, angenehme Höhen, ausreichende und differenzierte Bässe.

Zum Vergleich:
- Ein E-Voice 12L klingt gedrungener in den Mitten, hat weichere Höhen und klingt dementsprechend auch nicht so offen.
- Ein G12/100 klingt ausgewogener, hat aber dafür auch nicht den punchigen Mittenbereich und setzt sich nicht so gut durch.
- Ein Celestion V30 ist wohl eher was für Satriani-Sounds, denn er hat einen gepushten und (durchaus gewollt) komprimierten Mittenbereich. Dadurch fehlt ihm die gewisse Klarheit für z.B. Tapping-Soli a la Eddie Van Halen.

Für bestimmte Sounds, z.B. Celestion Greenbacks für den angezerrten Bereich, oder EV-12L, Celestion V30 für Santana-ähnliche Klänge, gibt es sicher auch andere Lösungen, aber wer einen ausgereiften Allround-Speaker sucht, fährt mit dem G12T75 absolut gut.

Dieser Erfahrungsbericht ist natürlich absolut subjektiv und kann im Idealfall dazu dienen, eine Kaufentscheidung zu erleichtern.
