Question for the room!
I've wanted to upgrade the speaker in my 80s Fender Super Champ for ages and I've just found a used Celestion Gold Alnico G10 on MarketPlace that I'm hoping will be perfect.
But I'm crap at electronics, the seller has told me it's 16 ohms and to check it'll be okay in my amp. I have no idea what ohmage the stock speaker is, I think this is a pretty standard mod for this amp.
Any ideas? Will I die? OG and upgrade pictured for reference.
EDIT: So it appears the Super Champ shipped with an 8 ohm speaker. I've also gleaned that going with a lower ohmage is generally a no-no but going up is okay. I'm sure one of you will put me out of my misery one way or another. Thanks in advance!
