Suitable for guitar use?

This is what it sounds like, when cones cry.

Suitable for guitar use?

Does anyone know if these would be useable with my supro golden holiday?

My tentative plan is to cut a new baffle for the amp itself, build a homemade Leslie with the 2nd spkr, and run both spkrs off a M*rren RS OT. Thought it might have an interesting tone, though it does drive the cost up compared to a replacement fender deluxe OT :P

Hmm, dunno as I'd be too keen to have "seamed" cones on guitar stuff, but I guess it all depends on how loud the amp is and how much it's going to flex and distort the cone.

I'm all for experimenting though. I once had some 8" speakers that were designed as amateur radio speakers, and they sounded kickass for low powered guitar amps.
So I like purple, okay!!!!!!

I think I'll give it a go, worst case they were pretty cheap so if they sound like ass I can just scrap em.
