Introducing the Crescendo Anniversary Edition (AE) – a 12" ferrite magnet guitar speaker with a 100-watt power rating, crafted to honour the legacy of Fane’s iconic Crescendo series. Inspired by the elusive tones of the legendary A and E models—famously debated as part of David Gilmour’s rig—the AE combines the best characteristics of both.

With original parts now scarce and original vintage units rare to find, varying in tone and aging, we've reimagined the classic design to deliver the unmistakable Crescendo voice to a new generation. Dynamic, and rich in harmonic detail, the AE stands not as a replica, but as a worthy evolution of a true classic and a fresh Fane flavour for guitar players.
