George Lynch

In 2010, George Lynch challenged Celestion to build his dream guitar loudspeaker. He wanted a new style of speaker, blending world-renowned Celestion vintage tonality with the capability of providing, on demand, a harder-edged and more modern sound.

We needed to draw on our vast experience of guitar loudspeaker development in order to meet these exacting requirements and after many hours listening and testing, we engineered a speaker with a unique blend of sonic elements taken from models introduced throughout Celestion’s history.

Tonally, the G12-50GL Lynchback incorporates the kind of detail and harmonic complexity found in vintage models of the late 1960s, combined with increased headroom, and the attitude, aggression and mid-band character of some of the more modern Celestion speakers.

The result is an ideal balance between a detailed vintage warmth that makes your lead sound sing, and an up-front attitude that delivers punchier rhythm tones capable of cutting through the mix.
