Those are some fantastic demos, man.
The clips prompted me to take a look at speakers about which I knew very little.

I imagine that a 30w ceramic weber silver bell with the pre rola treatment would fit the bill.
The Scumback M75 is fantastic.

My 2 cents...to me what makes a Greenie is the upper mid-lets call it "nail storm" spikes...love that. If you're not married to those my preferred replacement for a Greenie...having more ass and a more mellow top are G12-65s.
H30s to me sound nothing like Greenies, and to me current H30s compared to the ones from yester year have way too much top and not enough bottom by comparison.
But then it always depends on the enclosure they're in anyways.

Another vote for the GB12.

I too am looking for replacements for my EVH greenies. I want something with that breakup, but with better bass and a little more projection to better balance with my V30 loaded cab. Are the Private jacks the way to go? I've always wanted to try them.

If you dig the greenbacks maybe a different cab would do the trick. I'm not tryin to be cocky...just thinking that there are other ways to obtain more bass from a rig. I'd explore that stuff before taking a crapshoot at new speakers that may or may not do what I want.

Scumbacks.
Also Emi GB12s. These are not "GB clones." I believe they're better than Greenies in open back cabs (especially 1X12s).

Mix a greenback with a G12H30 in a 2x12 or go with the Scumback M75/H75 mix. The G12H30 (H75) adds the missing bass and some high end that is missing from the greenback.
