Baloney Balderdash Posted March 4 Posted March 4 (edited) This one (random Google image): The Laney Laney 50th Anniversary IRT Studio SE Amplifier, at a really good price used, under half the price of what it costs from new, and appears to be in mint condition. I suppose it is guitar oriented, but perfect for my needs. It is only 15W, but has a build in speaker dummy load that allows you to use it as a poweramp/transformer out DI, which is how I am primarily planning to use it. It comes with 3 channels (Clean, Rhythm, and Lead, and then an additional switchable Boost), running with brand new and biased 3 12AX7 JJ preamp tubes, and 2 JJ EL84 poweramp tubes. And allegedly with a high quality digital reverb build in as well. And footswitch is included, to be able to switch between channels and engage/disingage reverb. For sure this is going to beat the socks off my ART Tube MP Project Series tube preamp and DI I use currently as DI last in the chain of my amp-less setup. And only weight 5.5Kg (12lbs).

wateroftyne Posted March 4 Posted March 4 It looks nice, as does a lot of Laney stuff. Why aren't they more popular? 1 Quote
Lozz196 Posted March 4 Posted March 4 That’s one of those questions, I’ve had both Laney guitar and bass amps and got great sounds from them, def strange they’ve never been more visible. Quote
BassmanPaul Posted March 18 Posted March 18 As a matter of interest what're you expecting, on stage, from a 15W amplifier? Quote

BassmanPaul Posted March 18 Posted March 18 Yes I did but if it's for recording only I feel there are better routes to follow. Quote

Maybe there is, but hardly for what equates to 200£. If you really are interested check my forum profile for the rest of my signal chain for my ampless setup. Seems to work brilliantly for me. Beside I already bought this amp, as the thread title suggests, so would be kind of silly not to use it. Edited March 18 by Baloney Balderdash 1 Quote
