Vintage Rock sound – affordable but loud

The Harley Benton G212Plus Greenback is a wallet-friendly guitar speaker cabinet that sounds great thanks to the world-renowned, high-quality speaker it's fitted with. That's right, it's powered by a pair of 12" G12M-65 drivers – still made in the UK by the legendary British brand Celestion. Since the hard rocking days of the '60s and '70s, Celestion's Greenback speakers have been synonymous with straight up Rock & Roll sounds. The new Greenback revives that classic sound, and looks suitably authentic too – this cab leans into the vintage vibes with its black Taurus tolex covering and a matching black cloth grille, accented by white piping trim. The front baffle is slightly angled for optimal sonic dispersion, even at close range.

Solid construction, flexible sound

The Harley Benton G312Plus Greenback is an eight-ohm speaker cabinet that can handle up to 50W of power – or 25W at 16 ohms. It features a pair of standard 6.3mm jack inputs, making it easy to hook up to both amp heads and combo amps. With its innovative modular rear panel, everything from compressed to open sounds are possible in open-back, closed-back, or partially closed mode. Whatever the exact specs of the desired sound are, the Greenback is perfect for players looking for that authentic vintage vibe. Be it Rock or Blues, this cab has the kind of tones that will make guitarists feel right at home. Of course, it's not just about sound: The build quality of the G212Plus speaks for itself, with Harley Benton using sturdy 18mm European birch plywood here, which gives the whole thing a solid, road-ready feel.

The Greenback: For fans of Cream, Zep, and Co.

Anyone chasing that Classic Rock sound from the '60s and '70s will want a bit of volume to go with it, but without blowing their entire budget – so the Harley Benton G112Plus Greenback could just be the newest member of the band. It's a great pick for beginners who are into the tones of luminaries like Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page. For gigging guitarists, the cab's 19.2kg weight is more than manageable, thanks to its pair of sturdy carrying handles. It's built to last, too: Black metal corner protectors keep the cabinet safe during transport, on stage, and in the rehearsal room. And the robust rubber feet aren't just intended to provide stability on slippery surfaces – they'll also help absorb vibrations, making the cab more efficient overall - something that even seasoned players will appreciate.

Not much to be said other than great all round purchase. Here you get 2 x greenbacks wired in a cab for circa £300. Compare this to a similar cab such as the Laney LA30BL Cab which is also 2 x greenbacks for circa £550... Why spend more when you can get virtually the same thing for nearly half the price.

Cabinet/Baffle Guitare 2x12 Celestion Greenback UK

Un cabinet en 2x12 Greenback UK à ce prix là ? Pourquoi se priver ?
Le baffle ne présente aucun défaut visuel. C'est costaud, bien fini.
Les HP, pas besoin de les présenter...
Modifié en "open back" pour utilisation avec VOX AC30.
(Petite astuce pour le passage en open back : démonter une des poignées de transport pour pouvoir extraire par pression le panneau arrière central récalcitrant sans abimer le tolex)

In einem Wort: Supergut!
Ein_Gitarrenschlumpf 06.05.2023
Absolut geile Box. Ich habe schon einige Boxen ausprobiert, 1x12, 2x12, 4x12, Marshall, Engl, irgendwann waren es auch mal diverse Laney- und Peaveyboxen. Die hier ist aller erste Sahne, die Verarbeitung ist top, alles sauber bezogen und gespannt, Kanten sitzen, Verschraubungen sind sauber, keinerlei Nebengeräusche. Es gibt bisher wirklich nichts zu meckern. Die Greenbacks klingel sowohl am Engl Ironball SE als auch am Marshall JVM 410h sensationell gut. Die Speaker unterstützen gefühlt die jeweilige Charakteristik von Paula bzw. Strat mehr und bügeln da keinen Eigensound drüber. Klare Bässe, gut differenzierte Mitten und brilliante Höhen, aber etwas mehr "creamy" im Vergleich zu den V30ern. Ich finde die Kombination aus Box und Speakern sehr überzeugend und werde sie behalten. Update zur Langlebigkeit kommt dann später. Bis hierher kann ich aber sagen, dass man bei dieser Box nichts falsch machen kann. Von trocken-clean bis sahnige Highgainorgie ist alles möglich und klingt hervorragend.
