Creamback 65’s

I got a chance to pick up a quad of those for an okay price. Haven’t tried them before.

Would they be a good fit for Jose Marshall, 2203 and Mesa mark amps? For those non V30’s tones

Oh yeah they definitely would. My Friedman 1x12 has a Creamback and great with my Friedman Pink Taco for those modded Marshall tones.

Be patient with break-in. I had a quad in a straight front 4x12, and thought it sounded pretty flat. Over time, it really softened up and I can really hear that Greenback quality. For me, the 65 has more midrange and a more vintage feel, where the 75 is a bit smoother and modern sounding, if that helps.

I guess I wasn't at the time. I found them too stiff and flat, compared to some real vintage Greenbacks, G12-65's and vintage T75's.

They are amongst my favorite speakers. I've ran them in 1-12 and 2-12 cabinets, they're great because you can run higher wattage head but still get that Greenback sound?

They’re nice speakers, but these three options are tough to beat frankly.

If you don’t need the power handling, 25W Greenback M’s are probably your best bet.
