While some metal subgenres are broadly about being as heavy as aurally possible, that certainly isn’t the case when it comes to modern progressive metal. Blending aggression with more experimental arrangements and genre fusions, progressive music (be it rock or metal) has always looked forwards, carving its own path. A wide-spanning genre classification, modern progressive […]

The Celestion 100 celebrates the world’s first purpose-built guitar loudspeaker which, in various guises, has voiced some of the most legendary and memorable riffs and solos of all time. Now available in IR format, the Celestion 100 is born of a painstaking research and development process, analysing, understanding and then replicating the very essence and […]

Available to download now in IR format, the Shades of Greenback collection brings together a lineup of seven 12-inch, Greenback-style Celestion speakers at a discounted price! With a beautiful break-up and glorious midrange crunch, the G12M unlocked a new wave of saturated guitar tones that proceeded to help define the sound of rock music when […]

“I listen to both sorts of music! Hard Rock AND Heavy Metal” Ah, the good old days. Old School Heavy Metal – in particular, British Heavy Metal, was a crossroads in rock music, a point where blues-based rock started to become something else.

In 2017 this unique rock speaker joined our range of speaker IRs and now, in 2023, it joins our range of Dynamic Speaker Responses, […]

If one guitar can drive music, then two can make it bigger, wider, more interesting and just, well, better. Then there’s country music. Country music […]

The Celestion Neo Creamback is available as both IRs and DSRs, delivering a Creamback-style tone and a little extra magic, all its own, that’s sure to set pulses racing. The great thing about Neo (Neodymium) magnet speakers is that they don’t weigh much. In fact, they are much lighter than their ferrite magnet cousins. The […]

Celestion speakers are revered worldwide for their signature midrange presence and growling cone break-up. We like to think that our speakers and the Celestion signature sound are considered to be one of the most important elements of great guitar tone. The Celestion Copperback speaker, on the other hand, was designed with a different tonal flavour […]

We’re very excited to reveal the latest addition to our range of Dynamic Speaker Responses – the Celestion V-Type speaker DSRs. Although the G12 V-Type is one of our more-recent guitar speakers – launched in 2013 – it has quickly found its niche among contemporary rock guitarists looking for a speaker which combines the best […]
