Vintage 30
Back in 1986 a new breed of hard rock player was on the rise. To meet the
demands of the players and their increasingly 'hot-rodded' amplifiers, we
set out to develop a modern guitar speaker, capable of handling much more
power and overdrive. To achieve this, we coupled our 'H' magnet (the
closest in performance to Alnico) with a new cone and voice coil employing
contemporary materials.Our most revealing speaker, the Vintage 30 features
enormously detailed and complex overtones, a warm low-end, a famously rich
vocal mid-range and a beautifully detailed top-end. Used singly to reveal
the complexities in hand- wired boutique amps, or in quartets for a
wonderfully intricate vintage 3D crunch, the Vintage 30 sound has been
captured on thousands of recordings from a diverse range of notable players
including Slash, Steve Stevens and Peter Frampton.
