I bought a CC1 last month and installed a Celestion Gold. It has turned out to be the best amp Ive owned or ever played thru. Its got the tone thats in my head. I got rid of two other amps after I bought it.
Excellent reverb, Excellent Trem, Ohm switchable, 1/2 power switch, gets the tube sound early on the dial and on and on and on. I love it.
The CC1 of course has the one Neo Speaker. The Neo speaker weighs 3.5lbs so the whole amp weighs 54 I think. A CC2 weighs 20 lbs more. I like the size and weight of my CC1. I like to carry my own stuff and be able to move it around without it moving me around.
Mine used, had the Neo replaced and I thought about getting another and switching it back to stock. The Neo Speakers are supposed to be "do it all" speakers but I found a Celestion Century Neo to listen to and wasnt so impressed. (same speaker). Im REAL GLAD I went with the Gold. I guess its the same difference between the CC2 wharfdales and the Blues.
I can definately recommend the CC1 but they are discontinued for sale here in the US. Can you still buy one new over there?

Theres my .2c
