I put this alnico speaker in a Blues Junior IV, and I find the clean sound beautiful and vintage. For overdriven sound, you have to tweak the sound a little to avoid too much highs, but that is not a problem, and also has a beautiful expressive sound. It is the larger brother of the much used Jensen P10R alnico speaker. If you like vintage guitar tones, this is a good option ! I have not yet tested this speaker in a band situation.
