Speaker - Jensen® Vintage Alnico, 8", P8R, 25W
One of the archetypical speakers in the range, the P8R has been installed in thousands of Champ and Princeton style amps for decades. Slightly clearer sounding than the C8R, its ceramic cousin, the P8R shines in clean and slightly crunch applications, where the typical chime of the AlNiCo magnets helps the sparkling harmonics to bloom.
Guitarist Description: Warm clean tone with emphasis on the highs. Responds to overdrive distortion with a warm and bright fuzz lead voice.
- Lows: Loose
- Mids: Subdued
- Highs: Bright
- Overdrive: Smooth

Product Reviews
Perfect fit and replacement for my 73 Vibro Champ. Sounds really great right out of the box. I expect it will sound even better after 20 hours or so of break in. I have a Jupiter ceramic 8 on the way as well, just to hear the tone differences. Will be interesting to see how they compare. I am expecting the Jupiter to be a littler tighter in the low end and perhaps a little punchier, with the larger ceramic magnet.
Great replacement for the original Phillips in the silver face Vibro Champ. Late Breakup lets the tubes get into saturation while still having good touch sensitivity. Nice tone without modifying the amp.
