it thickens single notes giving them a vocal character. Not for the faint-hearted, this is a full-blooded tone machine.
V-Type 12 70 Ceramic 8 & 16
Delivers authentic Celestion tone whatever your playing style. Crank it up for sizzling overdrive and raw rock tones, with plenty of
mid-band warmth to giving extra body to lead note playing. Weapon of choice for Richard Fortus (Guns n’ Roses).

midrange and more relaxed treble delivers balance, responsiveness and superb playability.

For those wanting more transparency and less midrange intensity, the Copperback reveals the best from your amplifier and
playing without additional colouration. Definitely not the “Brown Sound”, but tons of tone without any cone break-up.
