The problem I have is this..
Someone cut this combo amp in half and made it into a head.. and mated it up to a twin 12 inch Granet cabinet.. None of the original speakers are in this cabinet..
I was running a single JBL 200 watt 16 ohm monitor speaker for the last year (it was blown but worked not bad for guitar).. it finally gave up the ghost and farted out at practice..
I stole the G12T-75 4 ohm Celestion speaker out of my Marshall until I could get a new speaker..
The sound in 180 deg the opposite way the JBL was.. now it seems like the amp is working really hard.. and the tubes are a lot hotter than with the JBL.. it now has natural overdrive and now I have a dramatic change when I change pick-up setting.. Not that that's bad but I have to use effects to get a non-overdrive sound now..Is it because I'm running 4 ohms when it is rated for 8 ohm?
Is there a speaker better suited to these old tube amps.. I was thinking about a Celestion Classic 30 or something like that... can you give me some suggestions..?
The G12T seems better suited for punk or heavy music... I play classic rock and blues...I'm only gonna run one speaker in this cabinet ($$$$ is an issue)..
Help?
