I am getting some ghost notes from the Celestion Blue, especially on the F# at the 11th fret of the G string. I remember that sound from years ago with my Twin/JBLs. Maybe after break-in that will diminish. I don't get them with the Carvin/Weber.

Alnico, I wouldn't fault the speaker. I don't know how Fender pre-forms the caps, but give the amp at least 20 hours to stabilize. Art

I went through a number of speakers in my DRRI before settling on a Weber California with paper cone. The cleans are exceptional and it handles any kind of OD/Dist pedal extremely well.


I am in agreement about the Weber Cali speaker with the paper dust cap. To my ears, it is very neutral yet warm and articulate, without being piercing, which some of the Jensen/Oxford camp can sound like to me. The Weber Ceramic F12150's ( something like that ) are also highly regarded. I've tried alnico magnets in blackface amps and they don't sound right to me. Tweed amps are another matter. But blackface amps are more scooped in the mids and need a speaker the brings the mids up somewhat. The only downside the the Cali is the weight.
