NAMM WINTER SESSION, ANAHEIM, CA, January
15 2004 — In 2004, Celestion celebrates its 80th
anniversary year. With a recent move to new premises and
an ever more comprehensive product range, the company continues
to deliver premium quality loudspeakers for guitar and professional
sound reinforcement.
Celestion began life in 1924 as a small company,
designing and building loudspeakers for the burgeoning radio
market. By the mid-1940s, the company was manufacturing
more than half the loudspeakers in Britain.
During the late 1950s, Celestion introduced
what is today one is the most famous guitar speakers of
all time — the Celestion Blue. It was an immediate
hit with many of the up and coming musicians around this
period, players who went on to establish themselves as guitar
icons.
As rock ‘n’ roll and popular music
have evolved, so has Celestion’s product range, offering
great tone for guitar players of all styles.
At Winter NAMM 2004, to celebrate its anniversary,
Celestion is exhibiting some of its most famous guitar speakers
that have helped shape the tone of rock ‘n’
roll, alongside a tribute to some of the finest guitarists
that have ever played.
