Black Widow by Celestion

Correct me if i'm wrong, isn't the Black Widow 12 by Celestion in my dc-5 combo the same but a 90watt version of the Celestion G12T-75 Speaker.

If it's not what's it closest to?

Black Shadow is the correct name. It is not the same as a Celestion G12T 75. The Mesa/Celestion 90 is made to Mesa's spec's by Celestion in England. The Celestion speaker that sounds closest to it is the Classic Lead 80. But they are not identical. IMO the M/C 90 is smoother and has more bottom end than a CL 80.
