CAB and mics

The guitar cabinet on which this collection is based on is a German front-loaded and ported 1*12 cabinet, loaded with a Celestion™ Century Vintage speaker (8 ohms). 

This speaker is pretty difficult to find these days : I was able to buy this one brand-new a few years ago -thanks to a Portuguese reseller- but never had time to set it up and to capture it. The Century Vintage was* one of the early models in the « Neo » series from Celestion : very lightweight and using Neodymium magnets.

(*) « was » as I am not sure that it is still in production today, though it is still part of the Celestion catalog : https://celestion.com/product/g12-century-vintage/  

From a tone perspective, the Century Vintage is often presented as a pleasant and solid alternative to the Vintage 30 : it is very articulate and relatively clear and crisp, it provides a more precise bass register and does not have the harshness of the V30. IMHO, it is a very interesting speaker, able to compliment all types of amplifiers and gain ranges : clean, overdriven tone, crunch, mid-gain and high-gain… Blues or country, rock to metal rhythm, I think it may pleasantly surprise players in many genres… 

This free collection is based on the « DE-112 » front-loaded and ported cab : future collections will provide 2×12 configurations.

The lightweight Century Vintage

Samples

A few samples to showcase the type of tone that can be achieved, using a Line6 Helix Native Carillon amp with an Helix Native reverb.
