Re: New speaker day
Clint, can you describe the advantages and disadvantages or preferences of both the Alnico Blue and V Type?
Since you have both side by side -as I have no Alnico speakers in any rigs presently.
I have Celestion Ceramic 60W V30s, Ceramic 50W V Types, and Ceramic 25W Greenbacks and some Non Alnico Jenson and Eminence speakers currently.“For me, when everything goes wrong – that’s when adventure starts.” Yvonne Chouinard

Re: New speaker day
The alnico one is really smooth and natural. It's like I can hear the guitar exactly. The top is slightly rounded like if I had a small tone cap with the tone on 9. The ceramic one has ice pick on the top and seems to accentuate the Fender amp sound. Also, the alnico's mids sound nice and pillowy while the ceramic one's mids sound more defined and gritty. They both sound great but the alnico one is slightly mellower and more natural. I'm for sure gonna stick with both of them.Last edited by Clint 55; 02-13-2020, 03:05 PM.The things that you wanted

I have one cabinet with a brand new V type and I'll agree the high gain brings out a top end sharpness that I roll off by backing off the presence and the high sensitivity gain input control.“For me, when everything goes wrong – that’s when adventure starts.” Yvonne Chouinard

It’s possible to love (or, more accurately, find enjoyable tonality) in both things - and, rarely for guitar forums, I don’t hold strong opinions on many things [emoji3]
