Celestion G12H 70th Anniversary 12″ 30W
Hard-Rock! Standard in most 70s Marshall-cabinets.
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.
With a heavier magnet than the G12M, this faithful recreation captures the unmistakable mojo of late 60s rock guitar tones. Used singly it exhibits a pleasing, strong low-end, but it’s in a 4×12 configuration that it generates the great chugging ‘thump’ that the guitar heroes of the day were renowned for. With a densely complex and buttery mid-range and a finely detailed top-end, the G12H is excellent for cranking out huge, dark power chords, with smooth and rich bridge pickup tones and flutey neck pickup tones.
Diverse players include Sonny Landreth, Erik Turner (Warrant) and Zoltan Bathory (Five Finger Death Punch).
