Dvisions Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Anyone played on one of these? The specs make it sound quite good, but no where round here will get one in unless I order it myself, which I don't wanna do without playing it first. Would be nice to get some opinions before I start trying to track one down to test it out for myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Foxen Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Used one in the Caricatures recording. Bit too many knobs, although a lot of them switch off. The chap I borrowed it off sold it as he didn't like it. I got the impression as soon as the valves wore in and the bias shifted, warnings lit up like a christmas tree all over it and he got scared. It is an excessively complicated piece of kit for what should be a brute force machine. Kinda for people who want valves and fiddlyness.

Dvisions Posted August 16, 2010 Author Share Posted August 16, 2010 Hmm, interesting. Whats the tone like? I'm looking for something gritty, and I know it has a tube drive feature, but I still get the feeling its a pretty clean amp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do happen to be local enough to us to be able to visit, I can have a word with Laney to see if we can borrow one for you, though I can't make any promises.
