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.
