Speaker - Celestion, 12", Vintage 30, 60W
The Vintage 30 features enormously detailed and complex overtones, a warm low-end, a famously rich vocal mid-range and a beautifully detailed top-end. Used singly to reveal the complexities in hand-wired boutique amps, or in quartets for a wonderfully intricate vintage 30 crunch, the Vintage 30 sound has been captured on thousands of recordings from a diverse range of notable players. Presented with overdrive distortion, it displays a crisp crunch.

No, the mounting screws typically come with your amp.

The Celestion G10 Vintage has the same voice coil as the Vintage 30 and would be the closest to the Vintage 30 in a 10" speaker.

I've noticed people are putting these in their Mesa Boogie Mark V amps. Would it be okay to use this 60 watt 8 ohm speaker with a 90 watt combo amp?

In an ideal situation you will want to have a speaker that doubles the wattage of an amp. Using two of these would be a great choice for the Mesa Boogie and you would have a total of 120 watts.
Product Reviews
I recently purchased two Vintage 30 spkrs by Celestion. They are for amps I am currently building like, 5E3 Deluxe, VOX AC-30, JCM800 & a Hiwatt 504. These speakers will go into a Marshall 1936 cab I am also building. One spkr cab for many amps. AES has been a great supplier to deal with. I tend to purchase more when there is a sale and AES came through this 4th of July when others did not. Thank you AES.
Still the best speaker out there
