zZounds Gear Experts Say...
The Celestion Rocket 50 is a stage classic. Offering Celestion quality at a great value, the Rocket 50 is a great speaker for any style of music.

Take a look inside the back of a standard 4x12 guitar cabinet and you may well find Celestion Rocket 50s bolted inside. The Rocket 50 sounds fantastic with any playing style...and it won't break the bank.

I put the 16 ohm Rocket 50 in my Peavey ValveKing VK112 combo. The stock speaker was too muddy. I was a bit skeptical of this speaker at first but after installation I was sold and knew I had bought the right speaker. I also replaced the V3 phase inverter tube with a 12AT7. This is an entirely different sounding amp. I'm overjoyed with the possibilities of this amp now. Awesome cleans and crank it up for a little cone breakup, sweet. I can finally use the lead channel now without the gain boost but I use the gain boost for metal. It is not as loud as the stock heavy magnet 100watt speaker but I'm using it for recording so it's perfect. For more metal tone use your fav metal pedal through the clean and you've got metal galore. It can handle any pedal you throw at it. Great speaker. 4 would sound great in any 4x12 cab. Great British voicing. If you've just got to have more bass then I'd recommend the Seventy 80 or Hot 100 for you low tuned metalheads.

Musical Background:

Been playing for over 30 years. Drums, bass, guitar.

Musical Style:

Metal, stoner, doom, reggae, funk, blues.
