Has anyone tried a Jensen Blackbird 40?

I’m looking at a new speaker for my 6G3 Deluxe. These look really interesting. Alnico with a modern day upgrade. They appear to keep the bass end together and handle natural overdrive pretty well.

Let me know.

@chris78 may have one in his California Tweed?

Yes, the Mesa California has one.
I’ve not tried different speakers so hard to compare, but I’d say warm, vintagey and certainly handles break up. The Mesa has a lot of clean head room and I wouldn’t be surprised if the speaker had something to do with that
