Almost all my Celestion's are from 1960 to 1995 except for 3. I have a 10" & a12" Gold. Last week I bought cream Alnico and put into an old JMI "Domino Bass" cab from 1965.
What I'm wondering is will it get more clarity and sparkle after it breaks in? I'm so use to the way all my other ones sound (except the gold's...) that I'm not thrilled with it right off. I played it a couple of hours at a moderate volume before taking it out to a gig last night. It sounded o.k. But not like I'd hope it would sound with my Astoria Custom. Is this going to sound like my old Blues and Poly Grey's after some use or is this what I should expect as a trade off for the higher wattage?
Cheers!
