NAMM 2021 isn't taking place in the physical realm this year, but you'll find all the hottest January gear launches in our guide to the biggest guitar, amp and pedal releases of 2021 so far.
Celestion has introduced the G12M-50 Hempback guitar amp speaker.
The new 50W design combines a hemp cone specifically chosen for its tonal character and a medium-weight (35oz) ceramic magnet, resulting in a sound that Celestion describes as retaining a powerful low-end “thump,” balanced midrange (with just a little Celestion crunch thrown in) and smooth, singing highs.
Celestion recommends the 99dB-sensitivity hemp-cone speaker for mellowing out brighter-voiced amps for a – what else? – “smooth and ‘smoky’ sound.”
