LEGEND 125 GUITAR RAW FRAME DRIVER:
OVERVIEW:
Eminence Guitar Legends are specially designed for electric guitar amplifiers. Tuned by skilled ears, these hand-built specials feature a range of materials and ideas from nearly 40 years experience. Models such as the LEGEND B15, 121 and Modeling 12 are state of the art designs which meet the modern-day demand for power handling while other models feature vintage magnet and cone materials to recreate the traditional sounds of lead and jazz guitar.
The most difficult aspect of presenting a guitar speaker to the world is being able to describe its tonal characteristics. Your choice of guitar speakers is at least as important as your choice of pickups or strings. Just as you customize a guitar to suit your sound, so too can you customize - or 'hot rod' - your combo with Eminence loudspeakers.
MADE IN THE USA:
Eminence is fortunate to have one of the foremost authorities on guitar and amplifier tone in the music industry as an endorsing artist. Greg Martin, lead guitarist for the Kentucky Headhunters, was kind enough to lend his ears and hands in an effort to present to you the most realistic and accurate tonal descriptions for each of the Eminence Guitar Legends.
APPLICATIONS:
Pure Vintage! Used in reissues of some of your favorites. Greg Martin* states that this speaker is the epitome of the Great American Rock and Roll tone incorporating the best of standard British and American speaker tonal characteristics. Remember the Doobie Brothers?
In 2X12 applications using 'The Twin' or a Marshall, the speaker has a smooth tone and response curve, but it can really cut through the mix. Superb classic Blues tones prevail. It exhibits less low end than the 121 or the GB12.
This speaker is also an awesome choice for 4X12 cabinets. Eminence highly recommends considering a pair of Legend 125s with a pair of Legend GB12s. This combination makes use of the great top end of the 125 and the great low end of the GB12 for a cabinet with lots of guts! It is perfect for delivering crunchy, southern rock tones or grunge and metal.
