Default Speaker upgrade.

I have a little 1*10" cabinet closed back with a Celestion blue speaker that is more suitable for electric guitar.
What speaker can I put in cabinet for use with acoustic guitar ,?

I think setting the amp to "Jazz" will sound fine with the stock speaker. You might need to turn the treble up a bit. Make sure it's broken before seeking a fix! Plenty of jazz targeted amps (Henriksen) are also sold to acoustic guitarists. The original Genz Benz acoustic guitar amps and others had a tweeter off switch which sounded fine turned off (your Quilter is the equivalent of off).

Thanks for your cons . I'll take a look the spec of speaker I have, because actual Celestion blue is available only in 12" diameter.

There have been articles posted referencing adding a tweeter to electric amps in order to reproduce acoustic sound. I’d look into that route.
