Speakers can only be purchased as an upgrade to a cabinet and are not sold separately.

The best of Celestion's guitar speakers are available to customise the sound of your Barefaced AVD cab. Add your cab to the cart on the relevant product page and then add the speaker here. The price you see here is the cost we charge to replace the stock Vintage 30 with this custom driver.

If you're ordering a 2x12" or two 1x12" cabs, don't forget to add two drivers! If you only want one custom driver and one stock driver in a 2x12" or two different custom drivers, please email us to explain where to put each driver (top or bottom, left or right). We'll fit the impedance stated in your cab order. Email us if you're confused!

Celestion Cream - Alnico

With a 90-watt power rating, the Celestion Cream is purpose-built for vintage tones, whatever kind of amp you use. By applying new technologies and manufacturing methods developed during the creation of our Creamback speakers, we’ve been able to deliver a higher power rating while preserving the very essence of an alnico guitar speaker. Delivering a glorious, laid-back attack, the Cream exudes warm lows and a brilliant bell-like chime. It has smooth and organic mids, further characterised by a fine-grained detail that adds a high-definition quality to the vocal range. The Cream has been specially created to bring alnico class to all kinds of amps from 1 watt to 90 watts. It conveys a satisfying warmth, detailed expressiveness and exceptional musicality, even at low power levels.

10/09/24 - Reformer 112 - USA

Hi, I have a Reformer 112 with the AVD and love it. I’m thinking about getting another AVD cab with 10” speaker(s), and wonder what you recommend for me. I’ll be playing a low wattage Fender super style head (only 10W currently) so I’m not sure if a 1x10 or 2x10 would be best. I hope to have something that puts out a similar level to the 1x12 Reformer that I’ll try to play in parallel with a low watt British amp head.

The reformer has an Alnico Cream in it, and I mostly play blues and jazz. I like that speaker alot because it’s very neutral and high powered in case I want to play my modeler through a power amp. Anything in the 10” lineup you think is similar?

Is the 2x10 vertical cab about the same width as the 1x12 reformer?

Hi Mike,

All the widths are on the main guitar cab page so it's easy to compare: https://barefacedaudio.com/collections/avd-guitar-cabs

The G10 Gold is definitely closest to the Cream! The G10 Vintage is probably the next closest but not as warm and pretty sounding.
