Interesting, I was considering a G10 Gold for my Cornell Stinger/Romany thing 'cos I find the Jensen C10Q a bit shrill, and the Gold does sound really really good on some youtube demos, but it won't fit - the magnet cover would hit the output tube.
So that saved me £120+ even for a used one.
Mind you now I fancy trying an Emi GA10-SC64... which would fit...

Those Cornells pop up on Gumtree and Marketplace for really reasonable money round here. When I'm a bit more liquid I fancy giving one a try.
Edit. whoops. I meant Cornford obvs. Think they used to me made round here (Whitstable). Looking on facebay now there's a Harlequin and a Plexi 7 for £375 each and a Hurricane for £700...
I did some recording with a Hurricane when I first started playing in bands again in my mid 20s. It was too polite for my tastes at the time, but i suspect i'd dig it more now. £350ish for a handwired valve amp is pretty cool really innit.
Put the stock speaker back into my Super Champ, the grass isn't always greener, eh? All is well again.
On the downside the tremolo on my Jag managed to get stuck while I was testing the amp, I think it's caught on something and won't release properly. I've had no end of trouble with that tremolo ever since I got it. 😶
Anyway, I'll just play with the new B-Bender 'til I can get it fixed.
EDIT: Turned out it was the tremolo lock button was stuck, fixed now but I think I want to delete that feature, I've never been able to make it work properly, fucking useless. 🤷
