NOTE: Speakers are non-returnable.

The Celestion G12M-65 12" Creamback guitar speaker gives you classic British tone, with increased power handling for today's powerhouse amps. In the 1960s, Celestion's original Greenback speakers helped shape generations of guitar tone, and became a staple of modern music. With its warmth and distinctive growl, the G12M-65 serves up the essence of British guitar tone, with low end grunt complementing its warm mids, crunchy upper-mids and sweet highs. If you want definitive Celestion sound, this is the speaker for you! Put a robust Brit-flavored speaker in your guitar amp: the Celestion G12M-65 12" Creamback.

Superfragilistic Expialidocious

I'm threw this Creamback into my Supro Delta King 12. The old speaker was a chump. The Creamback is sonically out of this world. Tonal clarity at its finest. If you are reading this you're already half way there. Stop drop and roll. Now buy.

Worth the weight!

Replaced a Neo Creamback and definitely added more sonic girth and detail. Still breaking in but a definite improvement.

G12M65

Great speakers. Replaced the seventy80's in a Marshall 212. Probably could of mixed with a variety. But sound is so much better. I'm very happy with the upgrade.

Another Celestion Winner

I hear my Creamback 65 as a perfect blend between the Creamback 75 and an Alnico Cream. I have the C75 in my Marshall DSL40 with the Alnico Cream in its extension cab. A glorious, explosively musical combination that enhances any song from clean or overdriven classic rock through heavy metal. Body, bass and musical touch to burn. For your entertainment, I installed this C65 in my first amp - a 1985 Gorilla TC-110 and transformed it into a super fun, great-sounding amp (even with Tube Crunch engaged!) If THAT doesn't convince you of the C65's quality and magical powers...

Celstions ROCK!

I bought the Creamback to replace the original speaker in a Fender Champion 40 I had bought through craigslist; while I loved the amp, the speaker left a lot to be desired. I had Celestions in my old Marshall 4x12 slant cab but traded them with a friend decades ago, so I had forgotten how clean they sound.

I was able to get any questions on compatibility answered by Dan, my personal sales rep regarding watts and ohms. Delivery was fast! Installed the speaker with little effort and now not only does it sound tons better, I have a little amp that could handle small venues without it being mic'd- it could even work at a larger place with a mic on it. I's still breaking it in, but the tone is awesome.

But what I love about ordering from Sweetwater is the support after the sale. Within a few days after I received it, Dan was calling me to see how I liked it. You're not going to get that ANYWHERE else. Though this was not the first order I had placed with them, I'm now a dedicated loyal Sweetwater customer for life. (And I can't wait to get off work, go home and do some quality sounding shredding with my new Celestion hahaha!)
