So
what does this all mean?
Well, sound-wise, you're looking at the move from the Mojotone BV-25
speaker to the Celestion G12H-30 Anniversary. This speaker brings a
slightly more refined top end then the Mojo with
subjectively more extended bottom. The AST PRO sounds a tad "bigger"
than the AST.
The cab is 3/4 an inch deeper to allow the recessed chassis for
additional knob/switch protection. This might add just a bit more heft
to the bottom as well. The enlarged port in the PRO panel, now standard
on all AST, gives a slightly more open sound. And the new switchable
external output makes it easier to drive another cab, bypassing the
internal speaker (8ohm output).
