Best all around speaker.
By Tom 21962
No joking or exaggeration here. This is a fantastic all around british style speaker.You could use this speaker in any amp or cabinet and it would work beautifully. It is very clear and musical. Strong and powerful sound with a touch of chime.Plus, it is huge. A gigantic magnet and frame, produces 101 decibels of volume at just 50 watts.I am using it in an extention cabinet and playing through a 15 watt AC15VR. It is definately louder than the 60 watt speaker in the amplifier. But at the same time, when I turn down the forward pickup it is round and clean enough for jazz and finger styles.The tone is touch sensitive, you hear everything. Crisp lows and mids and singing highs.This speaker has a wide usable frequency range, 80Hz to 5000Hz.It picks up ever little articulation your guitar, pick and fingers make. Not the fuzzy, nasal brit "Greenback" type sound. But a more even, classic "Heritage" sound.I have a Vintage30 speaker and the GB128 is better sounding with gain on blues and classic rock.I could not find a bad review on it.If you have a cabinet that is large and cant find a speaker that can push enough air, here it is.I am using it in an open back cabinet.If you need to get some volume over your band mates or just want too give some new life from your old amp, I definately do suggest the GB128. You cant beat the price either. Get four.It would sound great with American amplifiers that use brit style speakers, too.You will not regret it.

By Ben F. Sport
First let me say that I have owned many, many guitar speakers. I actually owned a Legend GB128 years ago and being the tweaker that I am, sold it and went in another direction. I have tried several of the Eminence Red Coats (Governor, Wizard, Private Jack), Cannabis Rex, Texas Heat, Weber Blue Dog Alnico, Celestion Vintage 30, Celestion Gold just to name a few. This GB128 speaker is the most balanced speaker of them all in my opinion. I like mids and they are fat and present without being overbearing/shrill (Vintage 30). The mids are more of a low mid and not a high mid like a Vintage 30. There is just enough low and high end, but not too much. The cleans sound fantastic and overdriven, the speaker retains its clarity. For the price that this speaker sells for, there is nothing even close in quality. If Eminence painted this speaker frame and put some kind of catchy sticker/name on the magnet, it could sell for > $100 easily. I thought that's what they did with the Private Jack, but to me, this speaker is not only cheaper but better. Absolutely no dope on the cone, which might be part of the magic and the only difference between this speaker and the Private Jack outside of the color/name. Probably best in a low powered 1X12 amp where the speaker is not being pushed to the limit. Perfect for a Deluxe Reverb, which is what I have the speaker in.This is the first time I have been inclined to review a product on Amazon. I'm not sure why Amazon has this speaker listed like it is some kind of generic, but if you are reading this, take a small chance on this speaker and get it.

By Rolo
I replaced an Eminence Wizard in my Blackstar HT20 combo amp with this GB128.I was looking for a great sounding speaker, which the Wizard was, but a little smoother on the highs. Not so forward sounding. Got what I wanted.Using primarily a PRS Custom 24, a Fender American Deluxe Telecaster and a Gibson SG, all 3 guitars shine through it.Overall smoother than the Wizard, which was more forward sounding throughout the whole spectrum, but retaining great definition. On the Blackstar amp, works well either with humbuckers or single coils.Sound is absolutely subjective, so try it out because it is a great speaker, but if you are not happy just return it and keep trying until you find the one you like.PS: also tried a Cannabis Rex, which was amazing, but coupled with my amp, which is already bass heavy, had too much bass.
