Looks and Tone Inspired by Marshall’s Early Days
A 2 x 12-inch tribute to the era when Marshall first solidified itself as one of rock’s most iconic amp builders, the ST212 Studio JTM is a world-class 65-watt extension cab that will make the most of your favorite tube head. This immaculately crafted cab is handbuilt in England, boasting a premium finger-jointed plywood enclosure, supple levant covering, and a charming old-school solid metal “coffin” logo that calls to mind Jim Marshall’s first tube amp creations. Inside the open-back design lies a pair of Celestion G12M-65 Creambacks, providing a higher-power spin on the vintage Celestion speaker that set the sonic formula for rock’s overdriven revolution in the mid-1960s. It’s the perfect cab for your ST20H Studio JTM amp, but you’d be hard-pressed to find an amp with which the ST212 Studio JTM doesn’t excel!

Vintage-inspired Celestion G12M-65 Creamback Speakers
Originally released amid rock’s mid-1960s revolution, the Celestion G12M Creamback found in many a vintage Marshall amplifier helped define the sound of the burgeoning blues-rock scene. It’s arguably Celestion’s most prized ceramic magnet speaker, gracing the records of countless all-time greats, including Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, and Jeff Beck. The Marshall ST212 Studio JTM cabinet’s dual G12M-65 speakers retain the same vocal-like midrange, creamy highs, and aggressive overdriven tone of the original, only with a significantly higher power rating and a slightly improved low-end response to better suit the modern guitarist. For players who clamor for the raw and organic dirty tones that set the stage for Marshall’s dominance of the classic rock era, Sweetwater guitarists agree: the Celestion G12M-65 speaker is tough to top.
