Celestion G12H-75 Creamback

[DeLuxe]

Since these are pretty new to the market I thought I'd post some information as I install my first pair in a 2x12 Dumble style cabinet I am putting together.

One question I've seen on other forums is "Where are they made?". Part of the confusion comes from the fact that they don't say either way on the back of the speaker. So the first thing I noticed when I boxing them is this label.

"Made in U.K."

Not sure why it says that on the box and not on the speaker but it might be that there are rules about what percentage of the product can be made/assembled somewhere else and still qualify to be stamped that way. Maybe enought to mark the box and not the speaker? I don't really mind either way as these appear to be very well made with quality components and QC, I just thought I'd contribute what I found since there appears to be some debate out there.

I'll post more info and pics when I install them and give them a good run through.

Here's another shot with "made in U.K." on the side of the rear cap.

Here's a shot of them installed. I built the cab to go with a Blonde Bassman clone that I built. I will sell the head and keep the cab because one of my next builds will be an ODS! On its side it looks right for the bassman but upright it is all Dumble.

Man these Creambacks are cookin'!

Before I saw the second picture, I was going to say Maybe the label itself (on the outside of the box) was made in the UK

That's some nice cabinet work there!

Thanks! I'm sure it looks familiar...
