CELESTION
GOLD
Many other manufacturers have tried to
recreate the Celestion Blue sound in a
higher powered driver, and some have
come close. But only Celestion has the
experience and know-how to emulate the
tone and response of its own, Alnico classic
in a modern driver that’s perfect for single
or multiple applications in cabinets or
combos.
What limited the power handling of the Original
Blue was the material used in the construction
of the voice coil. However, after hundreds of
hours of testing and countless prototypes,
Celestion has developed a new coil that can
withstand higher levels of power but leaves
the tone unaffected.
Such a relatively simple, yet important
development, lies at the heart of a truly
remarkable new guitar loudspeaker.
