Save some money and get WGS 'ET65' if you want that sound -- great choice with that amp if you don't want the more vintagey sound of the G12M-65 Creamback. Maybe mix one of each. ET65 mix very well with G12M types, and most guitar speakers for that matter. It's essentially the same as the Celestion G12-65 with a slightly higher freq upper-mid peak: 3.4kHz instead of 3.2kHz. A G12M-65 should add some punch to the mix, and reduce and spread out the piercing 3.2~3.4kHz range. Should be awesome. WGS does not specifically make a G12M-65 type. The 'Invader 50' is very close, but with the same 3.4kHz peak as the ET65. Maybe a lower bass Fs than the G12M-65 (which would make it more scooped), but Celestion does not list that spec. The free air cone Fs is not the same thing, because it doesn't take into account the suspension, surround and doping. WGS Fs specs are more accurate in that respect. Either combo should be great for what you want. The G12M-65/ET65 combo might be more even in the 3.2~3.4kHz range, and may have more mid-bass depending on the real Fs. I imagine the Fs is pretty low like the Invader 50. The WGS recommended ET65/Veteran 30 combo is really great. Just like the Celestion V-Type, the Veteran 30 has a nice mid-bass growl with about the same Fs as the ET65. Maybe a tad brighter than the G12M-65 or Invader 50, but not like a G12H Creamback.
