I got hired to play a guitar solo on a session for a songwriter the other night, so I took my SRZ-65 to the studio along with a 1-12" cab loaded with a vintage Celestion G12-65. It sounded great, but the engineer insisted I try his cabinet loaded with a JBL D-120 instead. I sort of cringed when I thought of what it might sound like since I am not a big fan of JBL speakers for distorted sounds. Well, the SRZ needed a few tone tweaks, but the results were amazing. It had the smoothest, violin-like sustaining sound that I have gotten out of the SRZ. Go figure!! Now I need to buy a JBL!

Cool. Never tried a JBL D-120, but that makes me curious!

If someone asked me what the SRZ would sound like through a JBL my first instinct would be "not so great". I'm glad to hear about the cool tones! Makes me wonder what it would sound like through a EVM-12L.......

Makes me wonder what it would sound like through a EVM-12L....... It sounds pretty good! I have a little Mesa 1X12 loaded that way, and it makes for a great sounding portable rig. It really lets the amp's true voice shine, uncolored by the speaker.
