8" G8C - 20 Watts

8" G8C - 20 Watts

Impedance
4Ω and 8Ω now BACK IN STOCK!


The G8C ceramic speaker will breathe new life into your small combo. Boasting a fair amount of low end for an 8" speaker and balanced mids, this little monster puts out some serious sound. We personally love it with the Fender Champ. If you are looking for vintage tone with increased headroom and output in a small package, the G8C is your speaker.

    Perfect Speaker Upgrade

    Easy install into an old Peavey Rage 158 practice amp. Elevated the tone significantly. Nice and punchy, fullness of sound and warm overdrive tone. Highly recommended.

    A great sounding speaker for a great price

    I’ve had my Frontman 15 r for a while and saw a youtube for this speaker. Replacing it was a breeze: 4 screws on the back, four more on the speaker. I didn’t even have to move the reverb tank like they did in the video. Theirs was on the bottom of the box, mine is on the side.

    The speaker sounds wonderful, new life in an old amp. It came quickly and was well packed. Thank you!

    Major Upgrade in Blackstar HT-1r MkII

    The stock Blackbird speaker in my HT-1r MkII had a very woofy bottom end that muddied up the tone quite a bit. After researching 8” speaker options I settled on the G8C to replace the Blackbird. It turned out to be an instant upgrade, and I’m honestly shocked how good it sounds now. The low end is much tighter but still full enough, and the mids are more forward and satisfying. The HT-1 is tiny for a tube amp, and I mostly use it as a desktop practice amp at low volume, but after the speaker change it sounds much better than most desktop solutions. It can also get surprisingly loud when you want, and the G8C sounds great when pushed. For such an easy and relatively inexpensive upgrade, it was a huge improvement that I would definitely recommend to anyone with an HT-1.
