Eminence Patriot Texas Heat 12" Guitar Speaker 150W 4 Ohm
Nothing says "American Made" like rock 'n roll or blues. And nothing says "Classic" tone like the Patriot™ Series of guitar amp speakers from Eminence. Made in the U.S.A. for stand-up volume and reliable rockin' clarity. Seven-year manufacturer's warranty. Nice warm, fat tone with a little top end bite and clarity. Very touch-sensitive with a hint of British flavor. Copper voice coil on polyimide former, ceramic ferrite magnet, pressed steel basket, paper cone.
Specifications: Power handling: 150 watts RMS VCdia: 2" Impedance: 4 ohms Frequency range: 70-4,200 Hz SPL: 99 dB Dimensions: Overall diameter: 12.02", Cutout diameter: 10.97", Depth: 5.1".
Electric guitars, guitar amplification, and the birth of Rock-n-Roll in the 1950's collectively established a new use for loudspeakers. Speaker choices were limited in those days and amplifier manufacturers had to purchase products that were common to other applications. Usually, this meant a low-power speaker, often with an Alnico magnet, and limited cone and coil travel.
Due to the nature of the speaker's construction, the sound of the guitar and amplifier combination was impacted by the speaker design. Amplified guitar was a bit more aggressive duty than most other speaker applications at the time and the speakers were frequently challenged in terms of their mechanical movement and linearity. Guitarist learned how to control this non-linearity and use the resulting tonal characteristics to their advantage. Speaker break-up became cool and was a desired feature by most guitarists. The great guitar tones we know now are a result of those events.
Although there are a multitude of distinctive guitar speaker tones available today, they can be broken down into two main categories. We have Marshall and Celestion to thank for the distinctively "British tones" that we are so familiar with. Fender, Peavey, and SLM (Crate/Ampeg) worked with speaker companies like Eminence, Oxford, CTS, JBL, and Electro-Voice to establish tones that are distinctively "American".
Eminence is proud to present the Patriot™ and Red Coat™ series of guitar speakers. Incorporating both British and American cone technology into speakers that are manufactured in the USA gives us the ability to provide you with virtually any tone you desire. Be it British or American, clean or dirty, big bass or screaming highs, we have a speaker that will allow you to "Pick Your Sound".

Eminence speakers are the best value for your money. World class speakers that are made in the great USA. They are the only brand I use.

My amp tech told me that I need to match my 67 Bassman's 4 ohm output with a 4 ohm speaker because I'm only using one 1234; now instead of the two 8 ohm speakers normally in the Bassman's cabinet. The new speaker sounds similar to the old one except with more frequency range on highs and lows. Not quite as smooth as my 35 year old square magnet Eminence speaker, but like most new speakers it should smooth out more as it breaks in with time. I'm still an Eminence fan when it comes to guitar speakers. I prefer over the Celestions I've tried. Delivered promptly and in good shape.
