Pre-Rola refers to the vintage Celestion speakers.

In 1970, Celestion moved there manufacturing facility to Ipswich Suffolk.

After the move they labeled their speakers like this.

Some say the Pre-Rola speakers were better because after the move they changed the speaker cone to an outside source.


The Pre-Rola speakers looked like this.
