Anybody have ever heard about Fender Utah speaker, someone are selling for $100 for 2x12

there were in an old bassman cab, are they good speakers?

Not as coveted as some, but they're fine speakers.

Is that $100 for the pair or $100 each?

I'm not up on current prices, but $100 for the pair would be a good deal assuming they're in good condition.

Why are you looking at old speakers instead of newer ones?

that's reasonable if they're in good shape.

i just had 2 of them crap out at the same time in my mid 60s bassman cabinet-they were original. that price seems reasonable, but perhaps they've been reconed? if they are original, the paper could be getting stressed. that's what finally happened to mine.

$100 for 2

I will check if they are reconned

is there anyway other way to be sure that they are real utah from 60s

I don't really have that much experience with Utah speakers, but the internest is your friend.

My twin has utahs in it I love them.
They don't have the Blues lawyers approval but there's definitely nothing wrong with them
push a lot of bass compared to other types I've heard not as typical fender bright, at least with mine

i'm personally not that crazy about old speaker: i had to much that were sloopy, untight whatever - i would say at the end of the life cycle. but beside that i still have an old G12H30 Celestion that sounds good.
So in short, i wouldn't pay 100$ without hearing them before. New speaker are also good and not that expansive...

here's one of the utah's i replaced:




here's the replacement:

i have blown more utah speakers than any other. i do like the way they sound but i suppose i play too loud.
100 bux seems steep and as uni said, new ones aren't that expensive.

great, really apreciate your help

so if it's better buy new one, wich speakers are similar to old utah,

wich one do you recomend? (vintage30,greeback...)

(So, hazefuzz, you want us to do all of your legwork?)

Weber Vintage Series (or maybe Signature Series)

I don't want you to do all the legwork like you say

I just wanted to know what are good speakers that are similar to utah,if someone already played with them or anything else

I doesn't want to constrain anybody to anwser, I mean it's a forum so if I posted , it's because I know people probably know more about me for this subjet,


Anyway thank you guys for you help

Gotcha, didn't mean to necessarily call you lazy or anything.

I don't think you'd go wrong with Weber speakers.

ok great, I will check them

thanks
