Thanks man! I was actually watching the Trainwreck one today which I hadn’t seen for a while and I was like holy shit does that amplifier sound amazing 😜

It's me again,!! Just listen to the Jam 3-4 times now trying 2 think where have I heard something not the same but very "Punch U In The Face" feel???? U R 5 years younger PETE, but I bet U remember, MTV!! AND THE FIRST SONG WITH THAT ADVERTISING THEM , MAN WALKING ON THE MOON!? That's the Sound, it's not the same tune but it had cords and just rocked, and UR bringing that Back 4me,,, old days when that had all music All the time!!! So long ago, TY again Pete, I'll shut up now,, I think???

That sounds great, especially with the tele. I'm not sure what I was expecting with an old Laney but it likely wasn't this... Nice job, Pete.

Sounds like an ideal middle ground between Marshall and Hiwatt, slightly more complex upper mid thing happening and a quirky, raspy British quality overall. Totally unique and iconic voice I'd love to have and treasure!

I love this amp, I've had a Laney SuperGroup 100w for 30 odd years and it's as good today as it's ever been! Great video Pete.

Love this series and love this installment!

That Toni Iommi tone was absolutely identical to his early tone, minus a slight bit of fuzz pedal (season to taste), reverb, and his homemade finger tips.

Thanks Pete for unlocking Father Iommi's tone! That was fun. You rock

Pete I love this series of videos, because not everyone has the opportunity to hear or play some of these amps. Thank you for doing them

Ohh hell yes!!! Amps in the zone and all your videos on amps are probably my favourite videos on all of KZread, Pete! So so interesting and awesome!

These are some of my favorite tones from your latest videos. No surprise it came from an Amp In the Zone! 🙌🏼

The tele tone is fantastic. You're the man Pete.

Thank you for keeping tube amps and rock music relevant within your sphere of influence Pete🤘

Huge fan of Laney amps. That bassy/scooped sound seems characteristic. Thanks for a great video again!

Love the overall tone of that amp -- so sweet -- def Hiwatt vibe. Great stuff Pete!

Love how you described what Dave is so good at-just making the amp sound as cool as it can. Pete, would love to hear Rebel Rebel with this on one side and your JMP on the other.

Really enjoy these. Amps are just fun, and there's a million different shades of tones available to us which is a big part why electric guitar is such a fun instrument.

Love this series, and love that old Laney style amp! Also really informative to show us how you use certain types of pedals with that kind of amp too, thanks!

Wow Pete thx for making sense out of something i could never make sense of, i have a 1974 U.S.A Carvin 100 watt head with so many old school settings with vari-tone vibrato etc, all with there own intensity nobs, could never dial it in but after watching this twice i have found new life for this great old 100 watt head thx., you can play Dude 🙏🖖🤘

I am totally in love with this series of videos. really amazing work, you make every amp or guitar or pedal sound awesome. I really hope you do a video on the old VOX AC120 from the 70s one of these days. I have one at home and I can't understand why it's not more famous. it's really amazing and makes you wonder why you would ever need a Marshall instead. Sadly mine has been broken for quite some time but I can't forget how amazing it sounded when it still worked. it was my first tube amp and I still haven't played any other amp that I like more.

Pete, you could make any Amp sound fantastic ! 😉🥰

aaaand, we're keeping the intro for PT3, another banger! You're on a roll lately (at least to my personal taste)

Cool! I have much respect for Laney up to about 1983. Caught in a time warp!

Killer tones, killer series. Really liked how the Les Paul tracks in the opener really stood out in the mix completely separately from the bass.

Great video!

Revolution in their minds the children start to March. You nailed it PETE! Sounds just like Black Sabbath. Awesome as usual. Thought maybe you should’ve tried the scream honey bro but hey you know way more about it than I do. Love watching you man and listening to you rock!

Everything Pete plays sounds good.

Loved it! Loved it, LOVED IT!! Turn The Nob To 11 and Rip that Sucker Right OFF!!!! U Rock n Roll, as always Pete, Thanks to your bud 4 letting u use it 2 , Happy Easter & C U the following week PETE':

nice to see Laney get some attention. I absolutely love my VH100R!!

Great sounding amp, a bit different too! Great demo Pete.

Thanks! I learned a couple of things because of this video. Very cool! 😎❤️

The palm muting sounded heavenly. Awesome video.

That Iommi tone was fantastic!

The tele tone was killer, liked it all.

Awesome as always 🎸🎸🎸💕🎸💕🎸💕🎸

That was geat. British made Laneys don't get enough attention. I'm biased , though. I've had a British built Laney LH50R 50 watt head for about 20 years and I still absolutely love it. Cranked through a 4x12 with 2 greenbacks and 2x V30s. The clean channel is a little dull but maybe a cap upgrade might solve that?

Sounds awesome dude. Saw the title of this video and instantly clicked.

Finally a bass line we can hear clearly and has volume! Lol..I have always struggled w hearing bass esp in a mix..even in demos most players are turned down so much it's difficult to even hear it..much less the dynamics..etc.. awesome work man..u nailed sabbath for sure

Pete! These Amps in the Zone videos are some of my favorite things on the internet. If you ever have the chance, I would LOVE to see a comparison roundup of early Dual Rectifiers; there's so much rumor and noise about how they changed from the earliest versions to the Revision F/G amps that really got huge around 1994, and it would be so cool to know if they're actually all that different. Thanks, as ever, for the great stuff (and thanks for introducing me to the Tsakalis Nerve Mk. II, which has become my go-to amp in a box)!

@@PeteThorn Ah, that would be so cool! And I'd love to see one of the modern EL84 Rectos in there, the Mini or the Dual Recto-Verb 25, because I think those are secretly the best-sounding Rectifiers ever made

Really enjoying this series. Its great for us amp GEEKS. Really enjoy how you experiment with these amps just as I would. Im just waiting to hear what you think about Splawn amplifiers since they are really right up your alley.They are Marshall goodness right out of the box,but with major attitude. The guy that makes them is in South Carolina i think. I hope you can check them out.

Man Pete these Amp videos kick ass and This amp is killer Dave really knows how to make the right changes to an amp an still keep its original voicing and with your playing what can I say but After people watch this video the will see why Toni Iommi used these amps

Thanks for all those big 1s and 5s Pete. I have a 69 Supergroup 50 which I adore and yes, very much like my 72 Superbass . Works great with a lower output pup as you suggested, in my case a Firebird. Fun watch, Subscribed :-)

Sounds killer! Laney is underrated for sure.

Great sounding amp, and great playing as always! Please do an episode on your Bassman, or better yet a Traynor YBA-1 or a YBA-4. 2 of my all time favourites. They've started getting their due in recent years, but there's honestly a lack of killer demos for a YBA-1 here on youtube. Don't just do it for our home and native land, brother. Do it because the world needs to hear it!

I have one - they are bass amps stock and sounds best that way, guitar tones are good but generally much cleaner, much more bass heavy than average Marshall styles out there. However, once modded for more guitar-centric tones, more distortion from the Phase Invertor, it becomes the perennial sleeper amp, besting Marshall at their own game. Massive Hammond transformers give more dynamic range, immediacy and tightness than Marshall, Laney, etc. Why they have never realeased a HotRodded guitar version as they are so popularly modded to be - that is a huge missed opportunity.

I am pretty sure that three way switch bright cap switch is on my Lil Whiskey. David Friedman had his hands in that design.

That’s certainly in the Iommi zone :)

Took me a day to find the time to take it all in, but it was well worth it! That amp sounds chewy and delicious in Pete's hands. It was also great on the bass, and it was worth waiting until the end to hear an SG with Tony Iommi sounds at 19:20.

I love Laney amps! I miss the GH50L I had!

Bravo brother

Had 'The Clash' vibe going with that tele.

Hey Pete. Did you know Howie Jarret uses Laney. I'm sure you must have seen his Gary Moore? All the best. Mike!😊

The early 80's 6-knob Laney Pro-Tube were literally a Marshall JCM800... same components, transformers, etc. as Marshall.

Awesome info Pete! I have to open up my 1967 small box Marshall 50 watt and see what size bright cap it has.

That amp sounds great.

Killer video Pete! Is that a captorX on your desk? I’d love to see a comparison of that, Suhr RLIR and the OX?

Tone machine you are Pete!

I love « amp in the zone » thanks When is a metroplex metropoulos ? Thanks

that silver suhr with the 3/4 pickguard looks sooo good.

That sounds gorgeous what would a mere mortal buy if he wants close to that sound it has a nice chime

Cool loves these videos amp cooking 🤘😎 How many Ibanez do you have?

Love these videos. Have yiu ever had a chamce to mess around with amy of the russian made amps ffrom the 90s like sovteks, noviks, redbears, etc?

DOPE!!!

Cool video killer amp.... I noticed you had a reactive load Box I also noticed that you had a 2 notes captor type of machine and I know that you've used the universal audio o as well and I have to admit I'm a bit confused about all those devices and how they differ or how their similar. I'm also wondering what's the best option for me to put together a small home studio studio for atenuation and recording direct... (?)

Laney is one of the most underrated amplifier brands ever

Can´t beleive you didn´t use a treble booster. Great video as usual Edit.You did it at the end!!!!

I wish it had a Vol. 4 control

Do one on the Selmer T&B heads. I've owned and restored a bunch of those amps.

Have you done an Amps in the Zone on Vox yet? I reckon it'd be super useful because despite being such classic amps, it feels like you need to know some tricks to get them to do the thing.

@PeteThorn

Not exactly but I did do one on a vintage AC30 boosted with treble boost, I played quite a bit of Brian May… I should just do one on that amplifier as well as a few boutique variants I have around the studio

Great Video Pete! I also noticed that cool chair you're using! If you read this and have a minute please let us know what brand it is. No armrests, tall back, swivel desk chair - very nice for guitar, bass players. My searches have been fruitless in finding this chair.

That opening tune reminded me of Hoodoo Gurus a little bit.....

Licks ending at 16:00- you, my friend, are a bad, bad man. Jeez.

please do amps in the zone with your komet concorde!

Perfect example of less is more sounds killer at 5 with 47 cap So good .... If you want I'll give Matt $51.50 for it Lol

JUICY.

Oh man, that would be the coolest rewrite of the Mtv theme..... if they actually played music.

Far out. Never even heard of this amp :)

Selmer bass n treble next please.

WHat's that Les Paul style guitar? I've seen it before, but I keep forgetting the brand! lol Thanks!

@10:42 he said the thing!

Did someone replace the knobs, they don't look right. Been really digging more vintage flavored high gain tones lately, so cool video.

Wow.

did you use the treble booster with the amp ?

Watching you play guitar is like watch the F1, I mean, I have a car but I can't drive that fast

Thoughts on the la30bl anyone?

I love Iommi’s tone on the Paranoid album. Crunchy, yet clear: not too saturated. Less gain than you might think. Similar to Alex Lifeson’s early Rush tone.

Matt? As in EVH?

We can still be friends with 3rd cousins we’ll never meet.
