G212 Celestion V30 : Clear sound and sturdy construction

I'm using the cabinet to amplify a Hughes & Kettner 18W Tubemeister head and have been playing different guitars with it (Telecaster, Stratocaster, an EMG-equipped Kramer SM-1.

I come from several years of tube combos with 1x12 speakers and I am impressed with the improvement in sound I am experiencing with this cabinet. Sure, the head does its part but the cabinet delivers clear, sparkly cleans and gives great oomph to the distortion. I also can't understand all the negative reviews about build quality. This thing is built like a tank. Sure, the tolex may peel later on, but I really don't care considering the price tag.

PROS

Clear sound on both clean, crunch and distortion

Rich bass

Sturdy construction with side metal handles

Cheap

CONS

Bulky and heavy
