About this item

  • Made in the USA
  • 70W 12" Speaker
  • 48 oz. Ceramic Magnet
  • Mix of vintage British and American Sound


We wanted a new speaker that was in between the British Sound and the American Vintage sound so we came up with the new Greyhound Speaker. During the design process we mainly used a Blackface Twin to test so we think this speaker sounds particularly good in this type of amp. As far as tone goes, the Greyhound is smoother sounding on the top end and upper midrange than a Celestion Vintage 30 but has more punch than a Jensen C12N. It has a great rock tone (specially for mid gain to high gain amplifiers) but stays clean enough for those who don't like too much speaker break-up. (70W 1.75'' Voice Coil 48 oz.

I played electric guitar for many years before I understood the elements that affect the tone the most. Guitar pickup materials and design/construction and amp speaker materials and design/construction. Other things affect the sound, like scale length, guitar electronics, amp circuit, etc., but those are secondary. The amp speaker literally gives voice to the tiny, weak signal that comes from the pickups and gets amplified by the preamp and power amp. I've found that replacing the amp speaker can dramatically change the character of the amp.I got the Mojotone Greyhound to use in a cab powered by my Quilter Superblock UK, a 25 watt pedal-sized, solid state amp, which is aiming at Vox and Marshall sounds. These amps have more mid-range, while Fender amps (especially Blackface era) are more scooped with lows and highs emphasized. I don't mind mids being out front as long as it doesn't darken or muffle the sound, which is a big turn off for me.Traditional speakers in Vox amps have been Celestion Blues (alnico magnet) or Greenbacks (ceramic magnet). From what I understand, people who play mostly clean like the Alnico Blues and people who like more overdrive and distortion prefer the Greenbacks. Makes sense, because a very sparkly, clear, articulate speaker that sounds amazing for clean tones is often two buzzy and harsh (blizzard of nails) for distorted tones. You need to round off the highs and push the mids. Long story not so short, I went with the Greyhound on the recommendation of Mojotone themselves after I told them I was after clean Vox tones.Does it deliver? Well, my amp is not a Vox, and it's not even a tube amp. I will say Quilter are the only solid state amps I've run across that I enjoy playing, but you can't beat physics. That said, the Greyhound is a very efficient (loud) speaker, and while it does give a more mid-range push, it is still clear as a bell, and not mushy or dark. It definitely gets me closer to Vox tones than the Jensen C12N that was in the cab (which is a better speaker for Fender amps). I'm not going to say that the Greyhound will make your entire rig sound like a Vox, but in it's own right, this speaker has lovely, sparkly-while-not-harsh, full cleans, as well as powerful, smooth (not raspy), full-range overdriven sounds.I also took a Tubesteader Lightkeeper (tube preamp pedal) which is based on a Dumble Overdrive clean channel, and ran it into the effects return (bypassing the Quilter preamp, only using the power amp to drive the speaker) and that was amazing with the Greyhound speaker in a Deluxe Reverb-sized cab. Blew me away!I'm impressed how well Mojotone manages to develop speakers that handle both cleans and overdrive really well. I don't know about metal distortion, because that's not my thing. While some speakers seem better for clean and others better for overdrive, both the Mojotone Anthem (think Fender Tweed/Blackface) and Greyhound (tempered British vibe) are really good at both. For the price, this is a really high quality, great sounding speaker.

The Greyhound speaker is very clean, no distortion. It is a smooth sounding speaker that is not harsh.I am using it in a 50 watt tube amp with 6L6GC and 12AX7o tubes. I play pedal steel and have set this amp up for travel ease. I have it biased for clean, clear tone and the Greyhound compliments that well. A tight bottom, smooth top and controlled mids. I had been using a JBL D123 and as that is a old 30 watt speaker I had some worries about it.
