Hi lovely people. I am looking for a couple of these rare beauties to install in my Handwired Marshall Bluesbreaker which I bought from the awesome @Marshall last year.
As great as the Celestion Greenback C's are....I'm looking for that alnico magic if I can find it! 
I missed out on a couple sold on this very forum last year.....darn...
Any help greatly appreciated folks....Cheers

     B) Happy hunting my friend! not easy to find but worth the patience I reckon ;) 
    p.s. maybe better chance moving this to the amp classifieds?
    btw, probably not your bag but I'm listing a Pure Tone Offset for trade if of any interest ;)

    Cheers! Always great to hear from you!
    Just had a message from a fellow fb member. 
    He has a 40 H Special JTM edition 4x12 he could sell 
    I could keep two and sell the others if need be....or fill them with the greenback Cs and keep the lot!
    Peace bro.

    Putting the Greenbacks in the cab with two of the original speakers would probably make an interesting mix.

    There may be a risk of blowing the Alnicos in the combo though - it was a problem with the originals back in the 60s. I don’t know if the reissue speakers are more robust.

    If it was me I would probably keep it all stock and just run the combo through the 4x12”...
