Unlock rich, dynamic tone with the Fat Jimmy C1270, a premium 12-inch, 8-ohm, 70-watt ceramic guitar speaker crafted for players who crave authentic vintage American voicing. Hand-built in the USA, the C1270 delivers full, clean lows, detailed highs, and a smooth, warm midrange—perfect for classic blackface and tweed-style amps.
Designed by the boutique amp experts at Fat Jimmy Amplifiers, the C1270 offers the tone and feel of late-'60s and early-'70s American ceramic speakers, but with increased power handling and improved articulation. It's a go-to choice for players who want punchy cleans, great touch sensitivity, and musical breakup when pushed.
Ideal for upgrading your Fender-style combo, custom cabinet, or boutique build, the C1270 brings out the best in vintage-circuit amplifiers without sacrificing reliability or headroom.
