Help me with speaker choices

[CrazyNutz]

I have 3 speakers available -
Celestion Greenback
WGS Veteran 30
WGS ET65

Which 2 of these should I put in my 212 cab to go with my 50 watt Chupacabra, and why? Or should I go for some other type of speaker?

Out of the three you have to choose from I would go GreenBack + Vet30

Don't worry about the 50w rating, people use 100w cabs with 100w heads all day long without issue. Besides you're not cranking it to 11 anyway.
Also I doubt the chupa is capable of actually putting out 50w, the plate voltage is too low.

I also have the 70/80 that I pulled out of my DSL40c as well as a G12H80 that I got cheap from Avatar Speakers years ago. I'm not sure what it compares to.

The WGS ET65 is their version of a G12 65. Pretty damn good copy too. I feel though that Eminence and WGS don't hold together as well as Celestion at high volume.

Yeah, I'd love to get hold of 2 Hellatone 30s.

Is this pair of speakers for $235 a good deal?
Celestion Vintage 30
Hellatone 30 g12h30

I’ve heard great things about Celestion 30 Watts (not V30s) with Jose/Cameron style amps.

I believe these are the H30 anniversaries. Most of the Cameron owners like the anniversaries best.

I am not playing a Cameron and the h30 anniv's rock! tight, well defined, and articulate!!

That's not a good price used, but good new.

You can get the Hellatone versions of those speakers for that price from Avatar
