For sale, a pair of Celestion G12M 75Hz lead cone Blackbacks. Celestion produced these from 1975 to around 1981, and they are notably distinguishable from their predecessors by their black magnet covers, Kurt Mueller cones, and overall more aggressive tone. These two matching examples are both stamped EJ4, indicating production on May 4th, 1976.
They are all original and in excellent cosmetic and functioning condition, and they pass all of my tests including:
- No tears, holes, or any other damage to the cones; completely original and no repairs
- Doping is in great shape
- Dust caps are fully attached (reglued in this case, as is usually necessary on the majority of speakers of this age - does not impact sound or functionality at all)
- Spider support glue in good shape, no loose areas or repairs
- Magnet covers are fully attached, stickers still look good
- No coil rubbing
- Nice, clean cones
- Both read just shy of 13 ohms (this is the proper reading for 16 ohm speakers)
Shipping Statement: If you're like me and have been buying/selling speakers online for awhile, you know how disappointing it is to have your new purchase show up trashed - and trust me, I've seen 'em come all ways. These will ship double boxed, first in individual 12x12 boxes, then inside a larger box with multiple inches of peanuts packed tightly all the way around and labeled appropriately. What you see here is exactly what you will receive.
Feel free to ask any questions. Thanks for looking!
