Are All Guitar Amps Better Through EV Speakers? [Princeton, AC15, 50-watt Plexi, Matchless]

The fabled EVM12L with four classic guitar amps – heavenly or horrific? Life too short for long YouTube videos? Please see the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below. Welcome to the show! Now there was a time when the Electro-Voice EVM12L speaker was the Undisputed King Of Drivers. Some argue that it still is, but for the most part the dear old EV has taken something of a popularity battering since its 1980s heyday. Nevertheless, I’ve become marginally obsessed with chasing some Dumble-type tones of late – Mick here, hello – and that has led me down a path of acquiring an EV or three. I really //really// like ’em. And then, during a chance happening with Andy Timmons just recently, Dan and I were served up stark sonic reminder that these can be great on the end of all kinds of amps.

Could it ever sound good with the Princeton or an AC15, for example? Let’s find out… Enjoy the show!
