Just bought a JCM 800 4212 combo and I was thinking about changing out the speakers. The ones it has now are Celestion G12t-75's. Do you guys think Celestion Greenbacks would be a good fit for this amp? What about Eminence Redcoat series speakers?

The Greenbacks are killer in a closed back 4 x 12...very crunchy classic Marshall tone. Vintage 30's are great too, louder and more versatile, IMO, and I'd choose those over the Greenbacks.

The G12H30's would be a cool choice too and, IMO, have a little thicker and deeper tone than the Vintage 30's.

The G12T75's are not my favorite Celestions but they're better than most stock speakers.

Never tried the Red Coats.
