The Meyer Brighton speaker cabinets are build from premium 11-layer plywood to form a very resonant construction. Very punchy and direct tone! The 3-piece-back allows to operate this cabinet as a closed-back as well as an open-back type by just removing or inserting the middle part of the back panel. The cabinets are equipped with a Celestion Vintage 30, G12M65 Creamback or G12-65 Heritage speakers for the high power amps and Celestion G12H Anniversary, G12M Greenback, G12H(75 or 55) Heritage or G12M Heritage speakers for the lower wattage amps. The double speaker cabinet is the perfect partner for the Brighton 45W head or as extension for the Brighton 20W or 45W combo. Other speakers than presented are optional on request.

Speaker options:
Celestion V30 – The most revealing speaker of Celestion, the Vintage 30 features enormously detailed and complex overtones, a warm low-end, a famously rich vocal mid-range and a beautifully detailed top-end. Used singly to reveal the complexities in hand- wired boutique amps, the Vintage 30 sound has been captured on thousands of recordings from a diverse range of notable players.
We recommend this speaker for the Brighton 45 Combo and Brighton 45 1 x 12 Speaker Cabinet and the Brighton 45 2 x 12 Speaker Cabinet. Also we prefer this speaker for the Blackpool 38 Combo & Blackpool 55 Combo and the Blackpool 2 x 12 Speaker Cabinet.
Celestion G12-65 – Originally created in the late 70s using more modern materials and techniques for a higher power handling, the G12-65 is widely regarded as one of the best speakers ever produced for use in a 4×12 cabinet.With its fast attack and tightly controlled low- end, the G12-65 had become a firm favourite with hard rock players by the early 80s. The precisely tuned mid-range and crisp defined top-end contribute to an aggressive crunch sound that punches through the mix while the mid-range warmth and detail give weight and depth to single notes.
Celestion G12M65 Creamback – The G12M Greenback is perhaps the definitive vintage Celestion ceramic magnet guitar speaker. Developed in the mid-sixties, it was quickly adopted by players like Hendrix, Clapton, Beck and Page, who typified the louder and more aggressive blues rock playing styles that came to characterize that era.The G12M-65 Creamback produces the familiar woody G12M tone, but handles greater power making it ideally suited for today’s amps, when a vintage tone is desired. The increased power handling brings with it low end grunt complementing the warm and vocal mid range, crunchy upper- mids and sweet, refined highs.
Celestion G12H AnniversaryOriginally re-released a little over a decade ago, the G12H remains hugely popular with players looking to recreate the classic sounds of 60s and 70s rock.
With a strong, aggressive low-end and powerful low-mids, the G12H penetrates any mix with an attacking upper mid-range and an ice-cool top- end. Used singly or in quartets it provides serious attitude to soft amp tones, easily cutting through loud stage levels for chord work, and imparting a hard edge to single notes.
We recommend this speaker for the Brighton 14 Combo and the Brighton 20 Combo and Brighton 14 1 x 12 Speaker Cabinet and the Brighton 20 1 x 12 Speaker Cabinet. Also we prefer this speaker for the Blackpool 38 Combo & Blackpool 55 Combo and the Blackpool 2 x 12 Speaker Cabinet but in combination with the Vintage 30 or G12M Creamback Speaker.
Celestion G12M Greenback – The G12M Greenback has evolved over the decades but still retains its essential, sought- after tone.Angus Young has been a Greenback devotee since the early days of AC/DC. This model is voiced with additional broad mid-range attack and restrained top-end to give a forward, punchy attitude to chords and a searing lead tone without fizz.With its well-controlled low-end it can be used singly in low-powered amps, or in multiples for high-power rock heads. It’s an ideal speaker to bring drive and definition to modern high gain amps.
Celestion G12H(75) Heritage – It’s hard to escape the sound of the G12H, just listen to any Hendrix recording and chances are you’ll be hearing a whole raft of them powering the guitar out of the mix.
These faithful re-creations capture the unmistakeable mojo of late 60s rock guitar tones. The Heritage Series G12H (75) features a 75 c/s ‘lead’ cone for an alternative tonal balance that places a little less emphasis on bass frequencies. Choose this version if you prefer a tighter bottom end with a punchy upper mid-range and sparkling highs.
Celestion G12H(55) Heritage – It’s hard to escape the sound of the G12H, just listen to any Hendrix recording and chances are you’ll be hearing a whole raft of them powering the guitar out of the mix.
These faithful re-creations capture the unmistakeable mojo of late 60s rock guitar tones. Unsurpassed in a 4×12 for cranking out towering, huge power chords, the Heritage Series G12H (55) features the 55c/s ‘bass’ cone. This model is famous for its thick syrupy tones, with a deep growling back end, densely complex mid-range and a finely detailed top end.
Celestion G12M Heritage – The original G12M of the 1960s was Celestion’s first guitar speaker to use a ceramic magnet and paved the way for high power guitar amplifiers. The G12M uses a medium weight magnet to produce a sound that is smooth and warm but bright enough to hold its own against any rock backline.Known simply these days as the ‘Greenback’, the G12M’s fabled ‘brown tone’ is characterised by a warm, controlled low-end, a rich, vocal mid-range and a delicate, detailed top-end. Loaded into a 4×12 and driven hard, these speakers exude warm, crunchy chords and sweet searing single-notes.
