Title: Celestion Greenback 25W sample Post by: marinblues on June 30, 2008, 03:58:03 PM My Greenback cab and speaker has arrived to here's a quick sample. Its agressive and responsive compared to the G12-65. I like it. Its brand new so needs to break in.

Gotta ask, is the OD in the clip pure OTS? Best tone I've heard yet from the amp... How are the cleans with the Greenback? Cheers Adrian Title: Re: Celestion Greenback 25W sample Post by: poipounder57 on July 01, 2008, 03:52:24 AM Sounds great!!!

Ive been playing my Overtone through the Greenbacks in my Marshall Bluesbreaker while Im in the process of building a speaker cab for the Overtone. I found that they were great for 'aggressive' overdrive sounds but a little to thin and harsh for cleans. Was this your experience too?

Even without the deep switch it still sounds good to me, very Fendery if I'm allowed to say that.
Marin which one do you like best G12-65 or Greenback? For me the best sound happens when both are used at the same time. ;) Title: Re: Celestion Greenback 25W sample Post by: marinblues on July 02, 2008, 01:56:52 PM Thanks. I like it too.
I don't really know how it sounds with the cleans since I haven't tried it yet! :) The cab got damaged during tranport so I am sending it back to have it fixed. Its packed in a box at the moment so I can't try it. I suspect that it would have more highs and less bass compared to a G12-65. However, there is a nice low-volume break-up which the G12-65 doesn't have. M. Hi Marin, Gotta ask, is the OD in the clip pure OTS? Best tone I've heard yet from the amp...

Don't know....I haven't tried the Greenback long enough and it still hasn't broken in. The G12-65 has more bass and rolled off highs so it all depends on the particular tone you might be going for at a particular moment. The G12-65 is stylish and smooth. The Greenback is live and "dirty". Quote For me the best sound happens when both are used at the same time. ;) I was thinking that too. A 2x12 with both speakers in it. Marin |
