«  A real slap ... »

UTILIZATION

The config is simple yet complete (three-band equalizer with joint knob tone, bright switch and reverb, all common to both channels).

In terms of sound, we need not look far, it's a question of balance but also subtlety because the knobs are reactive.

And the manual does not serve much, if not to give a few examples of interesting settings.

SOUNDS

I did not honor the masses by playing on it with a Squier (question means ...), but it still makes me really well already! What heat!

We feel that it is not suited for the metal, its headroom is insufficient for this but it is very versatile in his style! (Blues / rock, jazz ...). The grain is beautiful ... :-)

It is very quiet when not played (even if the reverb seems to bring a slight hiss, but this must be my guitar ...)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a few days I have not been able to push very hard, but already at low volume it sounds!

What I find unfortunate is perhaps the reverb (I did not concentrate enough on it), but also the effects loop, which seems, as stated by Laney and experience some of its owners, rather optimized for rack effects and pedals not conventional, as a matter of signal level. Anyway, it seems advisable to place the pedals true bypass if you will be using, so you do not lose quality and / or have a blast.

What I especially like is the precision of its grain and character, really fabulous.
