Perfect for Fender Deluxe Reverb Reissue

Was looking at replacements for the stock DRRI speaker, and I saw that Celestion Gold was one recommendation. I watched some videos and happened to stumble on WGS speakers. Very glad I did. I also looked at the ET65, but ultimately decided I wanted to go with Alnico, especially after playing a DRRI with a Jensen P12Q. I removed the bright cap from the DRRI at the same time I swapped the speaker.

The level of clarity and sparkle is exactly what I was looking for. Even without the bright cap, I can dial in the perfect amount of treble to get that blackface sparkle, but the lows and mids are extremely well balanced. Extremely happy with this speaker.

The speaker is unreal!! Adds so much dimension to your amp. I put mine in a Tweed Blues junior 3 and it completely got rid of the boxy sound and is now twice as loud as one might suspect without having the ice pick highs blues junior are known for 1000% would buy again.

Excellent speaker for latest build!

I picked up a WGS Blackhawk alnico 50w to put into my newly acquired 3D Forte 1x12 cab (and to be be transparent, it was Ben McLeod from ATWs use of them in his twin reverb that pointed me in that direction). While I have mainly been running the cab/speaker through its paces using a Mesa TA-30 amp, I have yet to throw anything at it where it didn't shine. Paired with my mesa recto 1x12 w/V30 cab... I'm currently smitten :)
