G212 Celestion V30 : Stunning Cabinet - Cheap for V30s

7 years ago

I bought one of these many years ago and a second around 2 years later. Both have worked tirelessly having been gigged and hired out for three or four years, getting use at least once a weekend! Loaded with Vintage 30s and being a closed back ply cabinet these are tight sounding with strong bottom end and glorious clarity in over-driven leads.

As with any new speaker there is an element of 'wear in' needed and these don't seem to take long with me. Throughout their time with me I've been involved in many outdoor performances and large venue work for which they have taken 100 Watt and 120 Watt Valve guitar heads and the G212s have never broken a sweat!

i highly recommend ordering the soft cover for these, or even flight-casing them if you can. This is due to the use of slightly poorer quality tolex than other cabs and the front grille can stretch enough for a stray mic stand to contact the speaker cones. Despite mine getting a crease in the edge of the cone from this though, it seems to have done no harm whatsoever to the tone of the cab!

absolutely would buy again!
