Topic: Which Celestion speakers did JB use prior to his switch to EVM12L's ?

What Celestions did JB use with his Marshall 4X12 cabinets (2004-2007) before he switched to the EVM12L's ?
I'm also particularly interested in his Rockplasat amp & speaker setup details if anyone knows about that as well.
Thanks.

Gibson Smartwood LP , Performance custom strats , Warmoth custom guitars.
Soldano amps, 4X12 cabinets with EVM12L's,TC electronics SCF chorus & vintage delays,Lexicon PCM 41 delays.

Joe uses Celestion G12-75 when 12L's arent available, the G12-75's were the speakers that made him realise he likes higher power speakers that don't break-up.

The main reason he switched was because the G12-75s kept blowing out when having 2 100 watt heads run through them every night

Thanks for the answers guys.
That was my guess to but i was'nt sure.
Wonder what he used in his Bluebreaker combo ?
Man did that sound good along with his Budda amp on the Rockplasat DVD.

During the Budda/Marshall amp days, the Marshall's ran through V30 equipped cabinets and Budda through its own companies speakers. Currently during "fly in" gigs if/when equipment is rented, the Marshall 1960B cabs are equipped stock with gt75s, so that is whats used.

+1 on the V30s is what I heard.
