The ultimate Rock sound
For some, they’re just noisy wooden boxes, for others they are the Holy Grail of guitar tone: We are of course talking about speaker cabinets equipped with the legendary Celestion Vintage 30 speakers. There's hardly a guitarist who hasn't encountered these speakers at some point, or at the very least heard about them. Some enthusiasts might have even entertained the idea of building their own. However, it's not that simple, as a Vintage 30 sounds only as good as the cabinet it's housed in! In this regard, Harley Benton delivers the whole package with the G112 Celestion V30 - and demonstrates that an excellent cabinet, crafted from modern materials, can also be genuinely affordable.

Solid wood - no chipboard
The Harley Benton G112 Celestion V30 features, as its name implies, a single Celestion Vintage 30 speaker providing 60W of power at an impedance of 8 ohms. The 12" (30cm) Celestion Vintage 30 is iconic in rock music, known for its versatile sound on countless recordings. The cabinet, measuring 46x47x30cm, provides ample space for the Vintage 30 to breathe, and the partially closed rear panel significantly enhances the mid-range response. Constructed from robust 18mm poplar plywood covered with black Tolex, the cabinet maintains an acceptable weight of 14kg. With its sleek black exterior, matching front covering, and white decorative trim, the G112 Celestion V30 boasts an authentic look well worthy of display!
Living room or stage?
The compact size of the Harley Benton G112 Celestion V30 makes it an excellent complement to combo amplifiers already equipped with a 12" speaker. This combination creates a notably thicker bass response, thanks to the wider surface vibration. G112 Celestion V30's reliable, time-tested design and industry standard speaker meet the highest professional demands and can handle the most intense stage use. Additionally, it serves as an ideal partner for a lunchbox-format amp - and why not more than one? Just two G112 Celestion V30s with such an amp will create a powerful mini-stack for the stage, studio, or even the living room!

Good fit for mini amps and combos
Living rooms or rehearsal spaces are the preferred environments for the Harley Benton G112 Celestion V30. Especially at home, since even with a small amp in the 1 to 5-watt range, it already delivers a rich sound even at low volumes. However, it has far greater potential than that - when paired with a powerful combo or a Kemper, it becomes a player in its own right on the stage. Attention must be paid to impedance and connection options, particularly when using tube combos. An additional tip: It is recommended that the G112 Celestion V30 be placed in a slightly elevated position, for example, on top of the combo instead of underneath, as the sound will travel more freely!
