G212 Celestion V30 : Extremely nice, very inexpensive, slow to get here

8 years ago

Worth the wait, but it took 2 1/2 weeks to get to the east coast USA. Was handed off to USPS, who managed to beat it up a bit through the single box it was shipped in. Not bad enough to ship back, but noticeable. So packaging and USPS are definitely down sides. Sound is an upside. Running a Bugera T50 into it, mono, and it sounds perfect, like I would expect it to. Reminded me of my old fender SuperSonic combo with Vintage 30s, so it was a good comparison. Considering it costs less than the two speakers if you bought them raw, I would say this is a steal of a deal, if you can wait 2-3 weeks to get it in the USA. Cabinet seems very sturdy, no buzz, no rattle even when pegging out the T50 tube amp. The handles are much nicer than many name brand cabs, definitely made for the road. No brainer if you want Vintage 30s in a road worthy 212 enclosure.
