I posted this info last week sometime, but I’ll repeat it for
this thread. I tried a few different 8″ drivers for my
VibroChamp, and the G8L-35 was THE ONE! It has a 4 ohm
impedance, fits into the Champ without the magnet hitting the
filter cap, and it has a tone similar to the original Fender
speaker but beefier at higher volume. It’s got nice top-end
definition. Hope this helps. Kent

Oops, I forgot to mention the G8L-35 is a Celestion speaker.
THe other speaker I tried was the Celestion Vintage 8 (60W
driver), and it was too muddy for that Fender tone. Kent

 

Buy the Book!

I cleaned up my tab for Sonny Boy's Help Me and made it into a short book. There's a Kindle version for 99 cents, and if you buy the paperback you get the Kindle free.
