The Thunder 1 that I have, was fitted with a Celestion Greenback by Cap'n Juan.
Now, the Greenback is my first-choice electric guitar speaker, for the kind of tone that I prefer.
But; I bought this amp. primarily for use with acoustic guitar, and the Greenback doesn't fit that scenario. I will though, be using the amp for electric as well.
So, my dilemma; what to replace the Greenback with ?
Seems to me, that a Celestion Blue might work well, but I'm not keen to spend that much money. Which leads me to the Weber P12 range.
Now, my all-round guitar experience is very limited, and I cannot go anywhere and scope-out all the alternatives. So, I need advise, preferably confined to this one manufacturer, unless somebody has a compelling, "must buy" brand X solution.
Opinions please ?
Oh, and........ ceramic vs alnico ? I'd also like something that's relatively "efficient" although, the sounds the thang !
Some of you will be familiar with my adventures with a Silvertone 1482. I had Cap'n fit that with a Celestion Blue.
I've since swapped the Blue into the cabinet that I use with my THD Univalve, and taken the Greenback from that cabinet and fitted it in the 1482. The 6V6's and Greenback go together like butter and toast !
