I’m thinking of pairing an A type with a V type, or a Greenback with a V type. The A type is far cheaper but damn this video makes the greenback sound good. 🤔
Very articulate through the distortion. Notes do not run into each other. That's why people always saying. Well by itself when I hear it's to bright. BUT recorded in the mix it sounds pretty good. Because the frequency doesn't get louder it gets clearer, more chime, adding distinction to the trailing edge of the note. This is a darn good speaker especially for low wattage amps. Where distortion is used to add sustain. It sings
The A type and the Greenback for me. Everything else has at least one unpleasant fizz or hiss somewhere in the top end or high mids. The G12H30 I thought was the only one with some of that fizz/hiss where it’s just enough that it doesn’t sound borderline at least
Not my real life experience and break in may have been part of it. Jensen Jet Falcon is a great low fizz speaker. I have a 210 and it sounds huge without harshness.
I think the point of speaker shootout and gear demos is for your ear to _get_ familiarized with the sample, so that an isolated comparison is possible. You should use the same sample/riff if you want to make this comparison really useful.
Every time I hear a speaker demo and I get to the Greenback, my ears go "yes, that's just right...." I also like the G12H30 but only if you have a warm sounding amp (and maybe a 1x12 open back combo or cab)
Wow that a type to evh is a drastic change. The g12k was tight but not my thing. The first v30 was gnarly I get why it’s so loved. The reaper almost sounds like a fuzz pedal is on by accident. Neo creamback is probably my favorite 12.
just something to consider but I would love if you could create some more WGS speaker impulses. The invader and ET series would be awesome to have. Love all your stuff, thank you so much for everything!
G12H anniversary. Hands down the best one, but the greenback and reaper had an interesting sound. The K100 is.... good but bad. And I hated the 30s and EVH. Burn those! Type A was like a very flat, run of the mill type sound.
I would pick the v30 and the greenback and mix them together were the 2 i liked the most. I might be rong but maybe they will compensate each other in some frequencies.If not i dont see any problem in puting the 2 i liked the most,to me its a win ,win situation,thanks for the video 🤘✌
There are 2 very different celestion vintage 30s. A brighter and a darker version! The darker version is what I'm sure I heard on a Mesa recto. There's some discrepancy in how the speaker sounds that has been driving people bananas.
True. Officially the mesa speakers are designed by mesa to be 'mesa voiced'. But that aside, lots of vintage 30's sound different mostly depending on when they were made.
speakers are to electric guitar players like tires to race car drivers. only deference is we don't want a tire to be flat and we don't want a guitar speaker to have "air"
That A Type sounds perfect. The Celestion IR sounds very scooped by comparison. What head/guitar are you using? I've never heard an AC30 sound so metal!
How can two of the same model speaker sound so insanely different?... They're like the most different between all of these. - Sounds like that second V30 was fried or something.
I got 2 Reaper 30 watt and 2 of their Retro 30's and that cab is staying as is! I also have a bright cab with a bright amp elsewhere so i'm replacing the top 2 with something with less treble bit and even though i love the Reapers, i wanna try something else. So far, it's WGS et65 or Invaders Vet 30, Celestion A Type or Green/creamback or Eminence Governor. Which one has the best presence without being treble bitey?
@@rk28984 I now have 2 Reapers and 2 Retro 30's and yeah, i'm not disappointed. I think thr Reaper 30 watt is damn near perfect. Retro has a tad more treble bite but still a good speaker...
@@rk28984 Iown a retro 30 and a reaper and I tend to like the reaper best it is pretty much a perfect speaker. The retro is a bit ear-bleeding in the high freq. I’m thinking of swapping it for a veteran or an et-65. What do you think?
I like the V30 CN more than the UK.... The UK sounds like a steaming pile of elephant shit, as my dear friend Glenn Fricker would say. The Reaper and the Greenback as well as the EVH sound also marvellous.
G12h 70th can sound very good. I got these in a framus 2x12. G12m Greenbacks sound good. The A-type also. But in real life i did not like it. V30 is king but you need to find a good pair…
I had to laugh. The intro promised some edge of breakup sounds. Then the samples started w super saturated high gain distortion. Not what a Vox really shines at.
not all I`m working on the VOX but my goal its get the "VOX" kinda sound but on the pack youll find the greenback, A Type, G12H anniversary, alnico blue and A Type , and two cool speaker additions
@@SeacowCabs yes please! More vox! There isn't enough of them. I like what you did here though because you were able to get a more driven sound from them as opposed to a vox that only sounds good clean. That's my major disappointment with most Vox IRs is the lack of tonal Quality when driven. I'm a huge fan of Thrice and Emery and being able to replicate those tones would be wonderful
@@smash_adams thats the reason why i want to add more speakers, the BLUE sounds something different as the Greeback, and the G12H its great for high gain - rock tones, and the other two speakers that i want to add will be 1- one of the first speakers that comes with the vintage 1960 ac15 amps 2- one of the power handling speaker which its a variation of tone of the stock ac30 speakers The AC30/AC15 are my favorite amps and im a huge fan of that VOX Tones, so i want to capture some of the different speakers who give that specific tones.
Greenback sounds amazing, has a lot of character and detail and nice midrange. The UK V30 sounds like shit, the chinese V30 is much better thant the UK one.

are we not gonna talk about how he got these high gain tones out of a vox ac 30
!?
for sure, must have had a pedal in front
The speaker is undeniably the biggest factor in getting a guitar tone. That and the microphone.
High gain, sure, but without the use of pedals, a vox ac 30 sounds nothing like an evh 5150 cranked
@@kenjicarlos8402 The amp is where the gain happens, but the tone is in the speaker.

Surprisingly, I thought the A-Type was the clear winner in this demo!!! Might just have to try one out!
The type A was good but I REALLY liked the greenback
Too muffled and very nasal midrange to my ears.
Feels like A-type could be a great pair with a g12h in 2x12 cab for beefy riffing mostly. It gives some extra low-mid punch, while g12m cuts thru
I’m thinking of pairing an A type with a V type, or a Greenback with a V type. The A type is far cheaper but damn this video makes the greenback sound good. 🤔
Damn.. The Chinese V30 sounded a lot better than the UK V30.
I thought the same damn..
Anniversary, A Type, Reaper, Greenback, V30UK, V30CN, K100, EVH in this order. Really impressed with the Anniversary and Reaper!
Type A & G12H are the best sounding based on this video. Thanks for comparing them 👍🏻
Nice comparison ! I would pan the A type with the g12H for the win
Your ears are like mine. I thought the a type was the best and then the g12h in second
Maaaan. I must say, the green back, the g12h and the type A were by far my favorite ones
For me the Greenback was the best. I would have liked for the Vtype to had been included it’s a great speaker.
That G12 30watt through the vox cab sounds great.

Much fun to listen to. I love your ir. And great riff.
The A-Type and the Greenback.
My favorites were A type, Green, and G12h
Yep totally agree and hard to say which was best because they all sounded good.
It came down between the Greenback and Reaper. GB=classic, Reaper= Very good modern
Yo ! I don’t know if it’s your own music, but i love it !!! I learn it many times !
Good job !
the song its from Lasse Lammert, its a di pack called Mago DI
its like the "standard" for reamp things haha
SeacowCabs Thanks ! I will listen to it right away !
Bravo for your work
@@theultimatenex Thanks a lot!
You should do a full Jensen speaker comparison.
Loving this riff man the melody is great have to post tabs haha!
Holy fuck it sounds like a completely different amp every time, never knew they plaid such a massive role
Every time I hear a speaker demo and I get to the Greenback, my ears go "yes, that's just right...."
I also like the G12H30 but only if you have a warm sounding amp (and maybe a 1x12 open back combo or cab)

Ya I just heard the neo creamback the other day, sounds VERY good.

of course dude!
I need get more speakers and find a cab to put them with other speakers for the users who want to mix them.
Best speakers in my opinion have good amount but tight bass, slightly scooped low mid, upper mid 2k bump and a nice clear treble.
G12H anniversary. Hands down the best one, but the greenback and reaper had an interesting sound. The K100 is.... good but bad.
And I hated the 30s and EVH. Burn those!
Type A was like a very flat, run of the mill type sound.
g12h for the win 😊
The riffs remind me of Epoch Of Unlight, especially the harmonies. Check out their album Caught In The Unlight(I think thats the title), good shit.
Awesome video. Wish you had a few Eminence to throw in there.
Soon a new comparison with more speakers
FANTASTIC!!!!
Type A or Greenbacks!👍🎸🤘🇺🇸
amazing~!! Thank you from Poland/
Thank you pal, great comparison.
Love the K100 . Sounds huge .
the V30 UK sounds like shit compared to the other V30
Sounds like the amp was dialed in with the EVH. I've tried most of these and after eq'ed, the V30 always sounded fullest.
which V30, Mesa, Marshall, or China?
Hahaha this isn’t my style of playing but it surprisingly helped me narrow down which speaker is best for what I’m looking for
I would pick the v30 and the greenback and mix them together were the 2 i liked the most.
I might be rong but maybe they will compensate each other in some frequencies.If not i dont see any problem in puting the 2 i liked the most,to me its a win ,win situation,thanks for the video 🤘✌
I like the A-type, g12H and CN v30 the most, but the reaper is a good speaker for sure
G12H30> Greenback> EVH> A> Reaper> V30 UK> V30 CN> K100.

So many great ones!
And the track? Certainly was amazing. Somebody knows the name?
k100, but im biased for super prominent mids. Currently got evm12l in my cabs.
Sick riffs. Open or closed back? Do you by chance have tabs for this? Found em through the comments.
Where did you find them at ?

I have to say type A was impressive
A type for me/ Chinese v30 sounds better than uk lol
Reaper sounds weird here but more like the 30th anniv here in real life
Thought the same thing as I own a Reaper HP and that speaker sounds way smoother in my experience.

@@dattoboy1 Yeah i got that too. Put the Retros in the bottom and they sound nearly identical somehow.
that a type is nice with his american voiced and distortion
G12K-100 Sounds me like Slayer Seasons In the Abyss.
Is it a WGS IR from lancasteraudio? The sound is disappointing.
nope
We need a K100 vs DV77 test!!!
Song ?
I like the V30 CN more than the UK.... The UK sounds like a steaming pile of elephant shit, as my dear friend Glenn Fricker would say. The Reaper and the Greenback as well as the EVH sound also marvellous.
