Eminence Red Coat Tonkerlite Neo 12" Speaker Review
By Steve Dellasala
I contacted Eminence directly about two weeks ago and talked to someone in tech-support. My question to him was, what speaker should I use to replace the one in my Johnson JM60 Amplifier? I told him that I wanted a distinct and clean sounding ambience to accurately reproduce the tonal qualities of my two guitars. One is a Guitar Factory made in College Park, Florida. This Guitar has active Bartolini pickups. My second is a customized Carvin from California. I recently replaced the factory pickups with active EMGs, specifically 81TWX on the Bridge and 89XR on the Neck. Without hesitation, his first recommendation was the Tonkerlite Neo 12". I then went straight away to order it on-line. About 4 days later, there it was on my doorstep. It took me no more then 5 minutes to make the swap. It took no more then a few seconds to recognize the difference.This is a very high quality speaker that provides a clean, crisp sound for my neck pickups. This speaker is able to reproduce and the woodtone of these fabulous high-end guitars. It is also more than sufficient in handling the overdrive, distortion and sustain that I create from my bridge pickups. I also like the fact that because of the Neo-Magnet I was able to shave off 6-lbs from the amp weight. This is important when I carry the Johnson JM60 around to gigs. The darn thing is heavy.All in all, I am convinced that Eminence is a superior speaker manufacturer for the Musician looking for a distinct sound that is not the same ole, store purchased reproduction. If you are into finding an edge, then look into swaping your stock pickups and stock guitar amp speaker. I strongly suggest contacting Eminence directly. If you tell them you need help selecting a speaker, they put you through to someone right away. All you do then is tell them your amp and tonal desires and they will pick you the best choice. Worked for me. Then you just go ahead and order it here on Amazon. It's safe and reliable and you receive the speaker quickly.Happy playingSteve
