Feeler for pair of Celestion Lynchbacks

[savant421]

I have a pair that's just been sitting unused and thinking about selling. I know they are discontinued and the only one I can find to buy online is a single on Reverb going for $400. If anyone is interested, send me a DM. Thanks

I believe those are 8 ohm, correct?

Correct. To my knowledge, they didn't make a 16 ohm but I could be wrong. I've never seen one

Really tempting - but I’m afraid the rarity has nudged a pair of these north of my budget. They do sound really, really good. Firm low end at higher volumes than the lower wattage GB variants.

I was trying to track down some Lynchbacks for one of my 4x12s about 18 months ago, and they were scarce even then. I love my Vintage 30s, but I wanted something that had less of the upper mid spike, and the smoother top end of Greenbacks.

I ended up trying the V-Types, and they ended up being exactly what I'd hoped the Lynchbacks would be, almost a hybrid of the Vintage 30 and Greenback.

,same thing happened with Lynch's first speaker the eminence super V. Fane- greenback- v30 ish. Good sounding speakers but I guess celestion gave him a better cut of the pie. I have two of those. Good speakers. I often wonder how many of these tiny kickbacks Lynch gets from sticking his name on stuff.

Yup, I would love to see a definitive list of all the drives and other gear he has endorsed.

Yep and then he doesn't use everything he indorses I remember a picture of a Randall half stack on stage and behind the stage was a Soldano Slo 100 that he was using. That is funny stuff.
