The result is a speaker that retains the sonic signature favored by guitarists, with much more comfortable transport ergonomics.

The G12 Neo Creamback is aimed at rock, blues, indie, or hard rock guitarists seeking expressive mids and musical compression when pushing the amp. It suits both lightweight combos and 2x12 or 4x12 cabinets, where its solid low end and projection highlight riffs, organic crunch, and singing leads both live and in the studio.
