    Any transistor amp
    120 watts
    an HP 15-inch tweeter, but no
    2 inputs: one active, one passive
    A compressor unfortunately not adjustable
    2 buttons boost: a serious and an acute
    6-band equalizer 1 plus 1 and a low setting of acute
    2 DI outputs: one in front and an XLR jack with a 6.35 rear
    An effects loop
    1 headphone jack

    Also note that HP is disconnected [to play with headphones or transplanted to another cabinet] and changeable.

    I put 9 in the compressor which is not adjustable, it's a shame.
    Also note that the first series were produced in Britain [to 1995 I believe] and the rest in China, the quality suffers tremendously, so be careful before you buy.

    UTILIZATION

    A config could not be more simple.
    One branch is the rule and equalo hop, go!
    Not a single wind noise even at the bottom, the sound is super clear with really deep bass and treble well defined.
    A little tweeter would have made even better but an ancestor, one can not too much to ask either!
    The DI are two great practices especially for where we live is transplanted directly into the multicore.
    Also note that the manual [rather succinct but ... it's not super hard to navigate!] is findable in PDF on the site Laney is appreciable when one loses his! And their customer service is really great, it also ensures the monitoring of their old amps, it's really good when you buy OCCAZ!

    SOUNDS

    Playing a bit of everything, I find this "little" amp really nikel.
    While it fits like a glove!
    The big fat sound [with everything on my little background and no compressor RBX 374] to its very end of a game finger groove through the slap was thoroughly Gammell, cash it all without flinching, and appears to a pretty impressive versatility. 10!

    OVERALL OPINION

    It is now more than two months that I have, and I'm really amazed!
    It is a true 120 watts to shake my floor and accommodates all!
    I had not tried before buying [250 € on ebay] but I bought my eyes closed. Laney's just good, cheap and investing for the long term!
    I will change my 120 BC for the world!

    Already given by the previous notice.
    The compressor is to forget, a very poor quality
    Note:
    -A handy microphone input
    One-one-cabinet apparent connection to the rear, allowing HP to provide a 15 'extra easy

    UTILIZATION

    The configuration is it simple?
    yes

    Do you get a good sound easy?
    Rendering medium is moderate to low power (makes up when pushed a bit.) For acute ... a HP 15 'without tweeter, it is felt.

    SOUNDS

    Right for your style of music?
    Yes, because I play jazz / funk / afrobeat / reggae in a cave, more than enough power in repeated. (No scratch uncontrollably)

    With what (s) guitar (s) / low (s) or effect (s) do you play?

    With what (s) guitar (s) / low (s) or effect (s) do you play?
    Warwick FNA Jazzman 5 a (active) and the Boss AW-3 Dynamic Wah, who would groove Patrick Sébastien.

    What kind of sound you get and with what settings
    in neutral setting, rendering the sound of the bass is fairly accurate, low-color (with reservations about the midrange and treble given above). The real strength is in the bass (HP 15 '!), I tend to push the blow a bit.

    Note: Do not use the compressor, is shit!
    only use it as a return if you play a sound

    OVERALL OPINION

    How long have you use it?
    I bought used 6 years ago 150 euros (without knowing her age), and the preamp just let me go ...

    What is so special that you like most and least?
    + The value for money! play group for 150 euros ...
    + Connecting external HP, which will allow me to enhance the sound of my head next.
    the least?
    -With a passive bass, the sound is downright yucky
    He just let me go (but after bopns loyauw and services)
    -Weight! for an amp of this power is a little scam, and the handle top is frankly useless, so you have to take him round the waist

    With experience, you do again this choice?
    Yes! this is a good ideal plan for a beginner who wants to play bass in his early groups (except metal, the power would be fair) and it can be equipped with better gear then without crying about the money spent.
