Re: Blues Junior / Jensen Blackbird 12" does it fit ?

Have you measured or looked up the dimensions internally? Back in the day all speakers were Alnico with a magnet assembly very much like that. And as you can tell the alnico mag is actually narrower in diameter than a ceramic one. I know for a fact the Celestion Bulldog alnico will fit the Blues Jun...

Fingers X-ed the baffle can take the EV and that the backboard is not in too close a proximity of the speaker, seeing it's closed back.

I recently got a Weber California 12 in a trade deal. It came with a screen dust cone. I would like to change it to an aluminium anyone ever change a dust cone before? Either you could just put your aluminium dome on top of the screen dome - Or you can cut an X in the middle of the screen dome, and...
