Just found a Rola-Celestion G12h

I've just cracked open an old wedge monitor that's been lying round unused for years and
found a 16ohm Greenback inside. Woohoo! (I think).
I've not followed the
discussion on this subject for some time but suspect it might be worth something to
someone, despite not being 'pre-Rola'.
Can anyone enlighten me further on this
driver?

It's worth about £1.... Should I send postage stamps, or would you prefer a

Hey, don't knock it. A pound's a pound.
Cheers, Zen.

Hi shufflebeat Celestions can be dated by their serial number serial
number I found one myself about 10 years back, and only rediscovered it 4
years ago. I posted here It make sound OK but I've no idea if its the
right sound, I've not managed to value it or used it much either.

Before aquiring the deep wisdom I'm
now blessed with I took apart two cabinets with 4x 10" Celestions in each which used to
belong to my ould fella, destroying the contents in the process.

Spyder, I've finally had a look at
that post. V interesting. I'm in discussion with #2 son who reckons he wants to hunt out a
little power amp and stick them in a box together.
We shall see. Listen out,
you may hear the KBooomMMMM !!.
