Celestion’s first guitar
loudspeaker featuring a ceramic magnet structure, the G12M
‘Greenback’ presented almost as much magnetic flux to the
voice coil as an Alnico formulation, but in a much more
compact space. As a result the Greenback became the guitar
loudspeaker that paved the way for use with higher power
amplifiers. And, of course, the ceramic magnet presented its
own unique tonal characteristics.
The Greenback has a loud and assertive character that sounds
great through a valve amp pushed into overdrive. The speaker
has evolved over the decades and still presents that
instantly familiar woody tone, delivered with a knockout
punch.
