I personally love to see insides of your cabinets. This vertical 4x12 is so awesome. Especially with kick back casters and handles. Person who never transported 4x12 can’t even imagine how hard it is sometimes. All you need her is tilt the cabinet and pull it. Brilliant! I can imagine 3D projection in room is huge. Yesterday I went with a friend for a amplifier testing day in rehearsal room. All I can fit in car was 3 heads, two 1x12 cabs, two guitars and two bags with pedal boards and cables and such. Even if I fold down my rear seats I think there is no space for classics 4x12. This one is more narrow it seems. Might fit more cars.

At least one of each combined 😊

Redback mixed with Classic lead 80 in 2x12 cab is killer.

The F25 just seems to be one of those magical speakers that does everything well.

I love that Zilla is ALWAYS trying new things with their designs!

Thank you so much for being awesome to work with and for building me this killer cab. Can't wait to crank it! For those thinking of getting a Zilla cab, I can definitely recommend them.

Hey Paul, I'm glad you've decided to bring back the cab of the week. I can't wait to see more. Kudos on the Ramones hoodie by the way. Hang tough and riff hard!🤘🤘

Great video, Paul. I think it's great that you are bringing back the "Cab of the Week".

I'm just happy to see more videos from you guys ❤️‍🔥🕊️🤘🏻

Curious the dimensions of this configuration, I think it's cool. Is it true that if you series different drivers it affects their frequency response because the signal is going through different impedances, when if you series the matching pair and parallel the two matched series pairs, the frequency response is correct? I think it works out, I should know as a union trained electrician, but I can't remember the equations lol

Cool cab and stunning looking studio!

What are the advantages/disadvantages of a vertical 4x12 vs a regular 4x12?

I have a 2X12 Hesu, and I have tried a couple of V30, but I don't find very pleasant. I have tried a DV77 with a Hesu Demon and I like the combination IN THE ROOM. But for mixing, I go to V30 for heavy stuff 🤘 Your videos are great ! Very instructives 🙂

Alright here are my specs! Cab: Vertical Fatbaby Back: 3 Piece Tolex: Slate Bronco Stripes: none Grill: SnP Pipe: Black On Body Pipe: none Corners: Gold Metal Top Handle: None Side Handle: Black Badge: Gold Inverse Speakers: Vintage 30 Impedance: 8 Ohms

@Zillacabs id like to see a Neo V Type vs Greenback comparison

Is this cab of the week? Or is it What's on the Bench? It's a new format and we aren't sure! Let us know what you think below!

Thanks Zilla team for this video again. What is the secret inside the EVH speaker, what did Eddie Van Halen ask for his signature speaker? It can't be only the Franckenstrat' sticker?

Hi Zilla team and congratulations for the video. G12 M even G12H are not metal speakers so for metal high gain people should choose the G12-65? For classic rock and Blues, all greenback are great, my preference for the 55Hz but in a 4x12 it sounds different. Maybe with a 100 W Marshall tube amp I would choose either 1x 4x12 with G12h30 ( 120 watts driven hard) or 2x 4x12 of G12M-20/25 to drive them smoother with higher sound volume

Gotta say I'm addicted to your channel! Classy as always 🤙

I'm very impressed by Joes playing in these videos!

Coming from someone that's owns a set of Neo Creambacks, I honestly think I like the Neo V Type better after hearing this

My all-time favourite ♥ Thanks Zilla!

Thank you! I so enjoy watching regular Zilla videos again. I really missed them during your extended hiatus from YT.

I'll be honest, when I first heard the Redbacks, I did not like them in comparison to a V30, M25, or H75. However, after doing a lot of modern rock and metal recording, the Redbacks are fantastic. They have an inherent roll off in the highs that really works in a mix and doesn't require too much other than a basic low pass and high pass filter (80hz & 8000hz, respectively). They keep high gain amps from getting harsh and provide a nice thick sound. Only thing is to notch out a little around 250hz and 4khz. Great speaker.

Good one for a 1x12 and bright amp but I wouldn't use it unpaired in any other situation or it might sound like I'm a jazz guy trying to do a rock gig lol Plug it into a big giant bright old marshall or hiwatt or something though, and heck yeah.

Something about the F70 sort of reminds me of the G12H-75. Can you compare those two? I think that'd make for an interesting video

Eyup! So would love your thoughts on this. I have a Marshall bluesbreaker reissue and I'm currently building a blues breaker clone. the Marshall has 2 Greenbacks and I've got 2 V30 speakers for the clone. My plan was to swap out one of the greenbacks for a V30, then both will have a V30 and greenback. I thought this might deliver a really cool all round tone. Firstly, would the amp be ok with the v30 and greenback combo? Or do you think leaving the greenback in the Marshall, and loading the Clone with the V30s would have a nicer tone. I play such an array or genres from Rock, Metal, to Jazz, country and clean stuff, so would love a versatile combo.Thanks!

I used to play T75's, been liking V30+M65 lately, will give the H a go!

Was that Tom Quayle demoing the ‘smaller cabs’? If not, they listen to A LOT of Tom Quayle 🤣

Don't change your speaker, get an eq if you don't already have one. Much cheaper. 😅

I love your videos!!!!

Have the F25. Bought it for my Dr. Z Z-Wreck Amp, because it had a little bit better tonal definition than the stock Greenback. I swapped it out for the Celestion Alnico Ruby, which I think works better with that amp. I like the F25 in a closed back cab better, but with most "M" style magnet speakers, think that it would be better in 2x12 or 4x12 cabinets vs. 1x12 cabinets.

I have the V30 8 ohm and a GM Creamback 8 ohm paired in a 2x12 cab. The Creamback is smoother with a warmer midrange, but the V30 helps maintain some bite without it getting too spikey. Compliments my H&K GMD40.

Imagine a tl806 4x12 😅 I’m gonna guess it would weigh 123 lbs ..

The famous upper midrange chainsaw clearly says A is a V30 and B the M Creamback 😁 I still prefer the H though, even if I get why some people might choose the opposite...

Love the mystery speaker - probably some kind of greenback? 😉 V-type not bad at all, ruby 3rd for my tastes...

For when you're tired of winning with the Blue.

Extremely helpful! Best speaker demo available, I believe! Surprised as how similar the V-type and Creamback H sound.

I had the Vintage 30 - actually bought used in one of you guys' ported cabs, IT WAS PHENOMENAL DRIVEN AND THRASHED... Except it also wasn't what I was after. So that went to a new home, then in came an A-Type... And I thought, D'OH, WHAT had I just done? And I had wanted to like that A-Type so very, very much. May be it's on me, apparently I like "adamantium ice-pick bright"... Thanks for all that you do. ❤️‍🔥🕊️🤘🏻

A is so the V30. That top end fizz is awful. Low cut at 10k always with a V30.

Both in all my cabs for over a decade. They just work nicely together.

So this video is 8 months old and the reveal was Thursday 8 months ago, but there’s no reveal???

I love the M creamback. Especially when playing lead stuff. There’s no harshness on the top end and you get this lovely low mid gurth!! I also love the Neo, and my guess would be these two paired would make a killer rock to metal cab. You don’t want that extreme low end that the H gives you and there’s to much top end. I’ve tried the H before and I ended up replacing it.

Marshall is for Rock and mesa boogie is for metal

Great video Paul. Listening carefully through Adam's, I'm finding it challenging to really hear the differences, the 25 and 70 seem quite close. Both seem like great speakers.

I think the M Creamback pairs better than the H with a vintage 30 . Has a nice low mid emphasis that fills in the holes that the vintage 30 has

Is Nolly a metal / hard rock guy I assume?

I have a closed back 1x12 with an m65 creamback. Sounds epic.

Rock guy agrees :) Great video. On it's own it is a bit to dark speaker for me. In a 2x12 it is a part of one of my dearest combinations. M plus H in 2x12 is a dream for ceramic speakers and will do equally good clean and low gain and middle again. It will even do higher gain but then again for my taste. Alone it is good for brighter amplifiers. Power handling is good and compression is pleasant. It definitely has that middle range that is Celestion signature thing. Those jagged spikes in higher middle range are just perfection for rock guitar with lower gain. Sure might irritate someone at high gain but everything under that high gain will profit from that Celestion trademark middle. On the paper H and M might sound like strange combination. M has 97 dB/W/m and H has 100 dB/W/m. So one would say M will not be bringing enough in the mix because 3dB is a big step. You need twice more power to achieve 3dB. But number does not tell the whole story. Frequency response curve and middle range just pokes enough. Proof is in the puding. It just works. Together they sound better than any of them on it's own. Anyways I have to say I love whole Cream series and each and every one of those speakers has it's function and place according to me at least :)

Creamback for me. Loving the Creamback NEO. Metallica is about as heavy as I go. Covers everything else as well. I bought a 2 x 12 Closed back Orange Cab with V30s, not a fan. Put Creambacks in, the cab came alive.
