First, let me apologize for the juvenile question. I found a pretty good deal on a “mint” used Gold. All the Gold 12s I’ve seen usually have a blue sticker on the back but this one has a black sticker. It still reads made in England and has the same script, just black. Were some Golds prior to 2018 made with the black sticker?

I have owned two different Golds and they both had the blue sticker on them.

Are you looking at picture of it or in person? I believe the Golds will have Celestion stamped into the back of the frame where the mounting screws are.

I found a gold on Reverb and the sticker on the back is black. So no, not in person. All the golds I’ve seen have a blue sticker. I think I’ll send the seller a message. I know it sounds silly it’s just that I’m a bit of a skeptic when buying used.

I haven’t seen black either, only blue. Also pay attention to the white marking on the cone (if you can see it) and compare it to others online.

I sent the seller a message (nice guy) and he replied right away. He told me the sticker is actually blue and it might be light reflection or something like that. It doesn’t matter to me anymore since I broke down and ordered up a new one last night.

I'm so glad I finally got one. It sounds better every day I play it too. The Therapy sounds really great with it!

Sounds like you got it figured out but another +1 for the Gold!
