Doesn't look like any Celestion frame I have ever seen. Celestion frames use two rivets to hold the connectors tab to the frame. The early frames had one place to mount the tab later frames had four.

Early Celestion frame notice one tab mounting spot.

Later cab with four tab mounting locations.

This is from Dr tube' site

5010 Master Lead Combo, 30W 1x12" combo

This combo was introduced in 1982 and discontinued in 1991. It is a transistorised version of the JCM800 4010 combo. Early 5010's were fitted with the red 12" 4Ω McKenzie speaker. Later 5010's were fitted with a 4Ω Celestion G12M70 speaker.

Hope it helps. Seems you ve got a Mac Kenzie !

They look similar to the red 12" 4Ω McKenzie speaker that came stock in my 1978 Marshall 4140.
