Need HELP ! Celestion Greenback terminal solder

Post by incredible_max » Mon Dec 29, 2014 6:21 am

Hi everyone,

I'm the proud and recent owner of a pre rola Celestion Greenback quad (1969!). Everything seems fine but the "terminal solder" is broken on all of the 4 speakers. I'm searching for another one desperately ! Do you know where i can buy some ?

Thanks for your help really appreciate,

Regards,

Max

OK, I'm confused...exactly what part/solder do you need? Do you have a picture of what you're missing?

It's the two little "hook" (one for the postive and one for the negative) as you can seen on the picture :

No one has those for sale. Yes I have spares for MY pre rolas, but no, you can't buy them.

Find an old Celestion frame, drill out the rivets for the wire terminal tabs, and mount them in your frames. You'll probably have to go with gray ones, black ones are really rare.

Good luck!

Neatest way is to get these:

You can screw or rivet these to your existing card and solder to them quite easily.
Most duff speakers have been robbed of the terminals or the terminals are broken (at least in my experience!)
