Celestion Gold speaker

I had a meeting with Rick Skillman today and I asked him when they were expecting the Golds. He said they were in production now. So we should be seeing them sometime in the near future. I can't wait until they get here. I am going to get one for my TW inspired amp, and I know it will sound great with my Stromberg Carlson model 33. BTW, Ricks got some chops.

I've only got two chops, but I can play them three ways!

It was good meeting with you and thanks for having me over. Both amps sounded fantastic and I'm sure you're on your way to success! The tone of that little EL84 whipper snapper is still in my head, and the 6V6 model was a blast as well.

Catch you soon.

Regards,
Rick

I am working up a 4XEL84 build and I think these Golds are going to be the ticket.

Tell em' to hurry Rick.

Supposed to be same tone, higher wattage.
