Members sahlomonic Posted June 13, 2011 Members Share Posted June 13, 2011 A supplement to the Rank the Amps You've Owned thread; I think speakers can make or break your tone much the same as an amp can. List 'em from best to worst! My list:Scumback GreenbacksScumback G12H-30Celestion GreenbacksWGS Retro 30'sCelestion GT75Sheffield 5150Peavey XXXCelestion V30Soldano/Eminenve X12000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ShaneV2 Posted June 13, 2011 Members Share Posted June 13, 2011 It depends too much on the application and amp they're paired with to put them in a list like that IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But so does making "best amps you've owned" depend on application and which speakers they're paired with. And making lists is just fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sahlomonic Posted June 13, 2011 Author Members Share Posted June 13, 2011 It depends too much on the application and amp they're paired with to put them in a list like that IMO. Sure, but I believe the amp depends on the speakers almost as much as the speakers depend on the amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dolf Posted June 13, 2011 Members Share Posted June 13, 2011 Depends on application, really. Right now, what works best for me is the WGS green beret/reaper combo. But I have owned all of these.

I like the WGS variations just as much as the celestions. EDIT: This list doesn't include the 10" speakers that I have used and liked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's 4 different 12" Legends, three 10", and a 15". 12's I couldn't really find anything bad with the first 3. I'd like to revisit others with different amps.

Members spoonie g Posted June 14, 2011 Members Share Posted June 14, 2011 Whatever's in my 76' marshall 4x12 I like best (I was told they were creambacks). The rest (G12H30, Jensen P12N, G1275, V-30) are equally good, though highly dependent on the application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cougar Hunter Posted June 14, 2011 Members Share Posted June 14, 2011 It's pretty cool that the choices are all over the map. We really have it good these days. 20 years ago, most guitarists would have tried two speakers; the Crate speaker with which he started, and the stock Celestion speaker in his Marshall 4x12.
