The world’s first dedicated guitar loudspeaker and a part of musical history.
Back in the 1950s, Celestion witnessed the emergence of a new breed of musician
– the electric guitarist – and responded to their needs for a rugged, reliable
loudspeaker by modifying the G12 radio speaker. The unique tonal character of
the Celestion Blue, combined with the valve amps of the time, helped to define
the electric guitar as we know it today.
Variations of the Blue were actually released in several different liveries,
including chrome, red and silver. Used by many classic amplifier manufacturers
of the time, it was the speaker’s adoption by Vox for their AC30 that ensured
the Blue’s place in history.
The Blue has a bright, lively character with a carefully controlled bottom end
and shimmering highs which remains popular and distinctive to this day. Loaded
into a single 12" or 2 x 12" cabinet, this legendary loudspeaker suits a wide
range of playing styles.
