The Tone Quest Report (www.tonequest.com) - April 2005: This isn’t a speaker for ‘Jensenguys’ or anyone that craves screaming treble tones,but man, do we lovethis speaker! One of the thickest, most aggressive in the Eminence line, the Governor is chocked full of complex harmonic midrange detail and smooth, thick bass response that doesn’t mask higher frequencies. Highs hold up well on fat chords without dominating them. Rated at 75W, the Governor works equally well in small combos and bigger head and cab rigs, and it calms down the sharp glassiness of single coil pickups very nicely. Running it with our ‘69 Marshall made the idea of pulling the original Greenbacks in our 4x12 very tempting, our Balls 18W roared with authority, and the Brown Vibrolux amps were simply unbelievable for great rock tones. The Governor will also match up very nicely with the Wizard, Red Fang or Private Jack in a 2x12. |
