The Marshall G12 Vintage is proprietary Marshall-only model T3897, raw silver frame, made by Celestion in England for Marshall, OEM. It never actually has Vintage “30” printed on the magnet sticker, just “Vintage”. This is the first, earliest, longest-running, and original V30, initially designed and released in 1986 for use in some Marshall amps and cabs, before Mesa and Celestion ever had their own custom voicings later on in the 90’s. If you’re hearing a V30 tone on a recording made before 1990, it’s these speakers. They were originally designed to sound almost like an AlNiCo speaker, but using a large ceramic magnet, sort of a cross between a Celestion Blue and a G12H30.
