He does blind tests with different guitars through the same amps with different speakers
Yeah, the speakers can/will impact tone quite a bit. There are a bunch of popular replacements - including boutique speaker makers that will craft you something custom.
That the speakers change the tone is not argued (by sensible people).
Oh, here's a fun link:
The best ones for rock and metal music are the celestion greenbacks according to him.
That Fricker guy references that video you shared all the time. I've never watched it, but I have heard about it a lot
Watching that video you just sent me, when the dude hit thos first chords on the Tom Anderson Tele, that is the bite and tone that this guitar I built is giving me! the partcaster was not even close to having that bite
The green backs are very good. Very very good. I prefer them in cabs, more than the amp itself. (I want my amps to have different tones, not sound all that similar.)
And, you need a Tele. I almost sent you one, but I bought you a bunch of beer instead. That depleted what I had stashed in my PayPal, so you'll have to wait and I may send you one in the future. You never know! I even found a blue one!
It was a Chinese Telecaster and absurdly affordable.
