Celestion Red Back 8 Ohm guitar speaker

Buy a NIB Celestion Red Back 8 Ohm guitar speaker, as a brand new guitar speaker to replace what is in your amplifier, or fill your cabinet! We have both a 16 Ohm Celestion Redback on eBay as well as a Celestion Redback G12H-150 8 Ohm on eBay.

Celestion Red Back 16 Ohm speakers - High performance warning

The Celestion Red Back 16 Ohm guitar speaker has a higher frequency response than older guitar speakers.  For that reason, you may hear high pitched sounds in your amp or elsewhere in your tone chain that older guitar speakers will not pick up on.  Therefore, before purchasing, you might want to have your rig looked at, repaired, or serviced to ensure this type of compatibility.

Celestion Red Back 8 Ohm speakers - History

The Celestion Red Back 16 Ohm guitar speaker is revolutionizing the new vintage guitar speaker corner of the guitar speaker world. The Celestion Red Back 16 Ohm guitar speaker is similar to the "second generation" Creamback, the G12H-75 Creamback (75W):  It has the heavy magnet, but far more wattage. I would call the Redback 3rd generation.  

Celestion Red Back 8 Ohm speakers - One speaker instead of 4!

The Celestion Red Back 16 Ohm guitar speaker offers so much more power handling (150W) that you may not even need a cabinet.  Just put one of these in your head cabinet. Lighten your load, and play it loud!  That is the revolution in new vintage guitar speakers that I am talking about.  This is huge for us.

Celestion Red Back 8 Ohm speakers - Power & Vintage Tone

The Celestion Red Back 8 Ohm guitar speaker has the maximum power handling without compromising classic vintage tone. Boasting a whopping 150-watts, the Celestion Red Back 8 Ohm guitar speaker is constructed with:
  1. a supersized 2-inch voice coil
  2. heaviest G12 magnet
  3. somehow it is not any heavier than 2nd generation (Creambacks)
The result is a guitar speaker that produces classic new vintage Celestion tone, yet can be connected safely to a 100-watt head (amplifier) all by itself.  With the Celestion Red Back 8 Ohm guitar speaker, you no longer need to choose between power and tone.
  1. tight, well-controlled low end
  2. detailed midrange
  3. more relaxed treble
Thinking of downsizing your cabinet?  Imagine 100 watts coming out of one speaker instead of 4.  That should be easier on your back, and take up less space in your vehicle than a 4x12 guitar speaker cabinet.

With a tight, well-controlled low end, detailed midrange and more relaxed treble, Celestion’s engineering expertise has produced a truly high power guitar speaker that can still deliver balance, responsiveness and superb playability, with muscular ease.With lower power combos, expect tons of smooth, clean tone and don’t be afraid to plug in your favourite stomp box.

Exclusions

Guitar Tone

Guitar Tone Samples

Our aim is to ensure that the tone of our guitar speakers CAN match the tone expected by the guitar community. Celestion and other manufacturers provide guitar tone samples for you to listen to, specs, and sometimes videos for you to review before you purchase. Typically, you begin your hunt for guitar tone samples on any guitar speaker's specifications page (see link above).

Guitar Tone Skills

Any buyer who does not already know this product takes responsibility for: Finding, sampling, and recreating the tone they seek. This guitar speaker is one of many important building blocks of your guitar tone (sold separately): Including your (1) guitar playing ability, (2) amp, (3) guitar (4) pedals/effects, etc. This guitar speaker should give you the analog space that you need to let your true guitar tone shine. It will not make you play as well as the guitarists performing the guitar tone samples. Seriously, no bad feedback, returns, or issues in eBay over tone issues.

Replacement Guitar Speakers

More modern and higher quality speakers may broadcast any imperfections in your tone chain that the older speakers you are replacing did not. Have your entire rig serviced before your purchase so that you only hear more of the good things in your tone chain. 

Electric Guitar Tone

Celestion's website provides information on how to break in a guitar speaker. This should be done before using any guitar speaker. This ensures that the speaker provides true tone and proper function over time.
