I just bought a Blackstar 1x12 with the intention of changing out the speaker, but before I did I wanted to see how it recorded.
Speaker is a Celestion Seventy 80 and the cab is open back. Mic'd with an SM57. No EQ, just a touch of Comp to level things out and a dash of a HP Filter to let the cymbals breathe. Kind of. 2 rhythm tracks (panned hard left and right).
Amp is my FJA Rectifier, with the EQ all at noon and gain at 1:00.

It doesn't sound too bad for a speaker that gets such horrible reviews. I think I will keep the speaker in for a while. Possibly put a G12T-75 in it. Who knows.
