    I think this just looks better

    I have had 3 speakers in my 1977 Deluxe Reverb (so far). When I bought it last year it had a Jensen that broke up too early. Then I installed a Celestion Vintage 30 which sounded fine, but didn't look right. Yesterday I installed a Fender (Eminence) 100 Watt and it looks and sounds great. I like the clean sound of the Deluxe Reverb. If I want distortion, I use a pedal. Now I have two Celestion Vintage 30's not in service, so I suppose another cabinet is in order.

    I tried a couple, including an orange frame JBL, but I stayed with an old Jensen "Concert" I had Weber recone.

    Those alnico Concert Series speakers are beautiful drivers.

    This speaker is ceramic, but it does look cool with the bell cover!
    I recently traded for an Altec 417-8H that I might try, but like the JBL, it's really heavy!
