The G12H-75 Creamback is a 12" ceramic magnet guitar speaker, with a 1.75" voice coil,offering 100dB sensitivity and 75-watt power handling with true vintage tone.
When Celestion’s guitar speaker engineers first built a G12H back in the late 60s, they did it by fixing an ‘H’ type (heavy) magnet to the body of a G12M guitar speaker, keepingthe chassis, coil and cone exactly the same. The result was greater power handling and adifferent tonal balance, with a firmer bass and more pronounced top end.
Another legendary guitar speaker was born!
So we added an ‘H’ type magnet to the G12M-65 Creamback to create a brand newspeaker, one that delivers the sonic signature of a G12H combined with Creamback levelsof power handling. The result is the G12H-75 Creamback.
It delivers 75-watts of power handling with ease and hasunmistakeable G12H tone. Just like the original G12H it has atighter low end than the M magnet version (the G12M-65Creamback), coupled with a punchier, more dynamic high end.
