Much improved tone from my '68 Pro Reverb "reissue" (single channel, one 12"). Has not been battle tested yet, but I expect this weekend to sound much better than last weekend.
I've been using these speakers in my Grande Range for a few years now. The best guitar speaker on the market. The tone , frequency range, clarity and note definition I get from them is second to none , the perfect speaker for vintage tones.
Amazing sound and build quality and a HUGE improvement over the Celestion 860 that comes stock in Tone King Gremlin combos.
The 50 watt 12LC Jupiter speaker replaced a stock Celestion VX12 speaker. My instrument is a 12 string-universal pedal steel guitar... so the speaker has to handle pitches from .012" up to 0.70" strings. The dedicated use for this amp/speaker will be recording sessions.
Instantly I could hear a much richer midrange from the amp... and once I got it dialing in, it was only better!
Thanks Team Jupiter!
