LOVE Laney amps. I have an old VC30 that rules, but this might make for another little cool amp to have around. Great first impressions my friend, hope you’re doing well!!!

Sounds really good!

I've got a Laney VC15 which is a great little valve amp. This new one sounds good too.

I got one of these recently and I love it. Pairs so nicely with my Tele and makes me want to play. Can recommend

Lots of drive for a little amp. I love that it maintains detail even with lots of gain. Some small amps get very muddy at high gain.

No, it's the clean tones that matter with small amps and Headroom, distortion is easy

Would be interested when you do the full vid if you could compare it to a Marshall equivalent as a comparison, also would be good to hear what that 1w input sounded like for practicing. Would also be great to this this amp with the monolith you reviewed a while back and see how they sound together.

great job!!!

Well considerin' Laney were the company that created the amp with the tone that pretty much invented or paved the way for Heavy Metal, whadd'ya expect.

I ordered Cub Super 10. Smaller version with 6 Watts of power.

The clean sounds are very subpar, but the overdrive tones are really something. Incredible Marshall vibes from such a small amp. I was impressed, it seems like a great recording amp.

Have to say shocked by this. I had an 80 watt Laney a couple of decades ago was alway very loud but never got a decent sounding dirty tone from it and always found it very tinny without much base this little 15w sounds totally different

A compressor pedal would probably help to achieve this.

I love the cleans on my Supercub 12. It gives heavenly clear and crispy tones paired with a Reverend Airsonic. But I can't deny my Blackstar ht-5 mkII has definitely more bass, even at low levels... maybe I should try to link them with a Y-cable into the amp to get both amps together... What do you think?

Cool little amp... Gain sounds seemed very good, unsure about the cleans from this first time impressions vid. Seems fairly priced and I think the 1w is a good option, so no attenuator required, unlike let's say a Marshal sv20 or the like at 5w which definitely needs an attenuator to get desirable amp tones without relying solely on pedals to push the amp. 😎

@dinorocker8647

Well even this amp needs an attenuator on the 1w channel cause it is F---IN' LOUD, but yes you can get great distorted sounds with the master volume.

It was almost painfully loud at one stage - very surprising…I didn’t expect that at all

Laney amplifiers/logos devalue the product. The logo should change elegantly. Must be stylish like the Marshall logo

'Boutique amp' vs 'budget amp'. I wouldn't be surprised if this is a tweaked Monoprice/Harley Benton Tube15, same circuit and components (except for the speaker), but at double the price. The back panel connections are identical too. This doesn't even have a spring reverb, it has a digital one. They changed the 1-15 Watt attenuator, split it into 2 inputs instead of a switch, and the 'boost' function? You can buy one hell of a boost pedal for half of the money that this amp costs. LOL.

@Pizvo

Actually, Monoprice/HB tube amps are a 1:1 copy of the 1st generation Laney CUB 12R circuit, which itself is a modified Marshall JCM800 preamp paired with Laney's take on the Marshall 18W poweramp. This is the 2nd gen of that amp with new overdrive and reverb circuits. While the reverb is digital, it's essentially a built-in Laney Black Country Custom Secret Path circuit, a 200$ high end pedal. The boost is a built in Black Country Custom Steelpark, also a great pedal. You get what you paid for in integrated pedals alone. The speaker is a modified Vintage 30 style one, made by the company of same guy who designed the original for Celestion. The build quality and parts are flawless and very sturdy. If you want to settle with cheap knockoffs for your bedroom, sure, go ahead, it will sound similar enough. This thing on the other hand can actually handle live gigs without rattling apart. And it has no right sounding as good as it does, it wipes the floor with anything by Orange or Marshall in the wider price range. I have one since it came out and it's a little monster.

@@Pizvo Didn't know the HB was a copy of an earlier Laney, thanks for the info... I don't gig anymore so a 'bedroom amp' or rather livingroom amp will do just fine, the downside of these cheap brands is reliability. I've had the Tube15 returned to store for repair 3 times now, they gave me a replacement amp twice, the 3rd time they actually fixed the issue, turned out all 5 tubes kicked the bucket at the same time, but since this was a 4 months old replacement they fitted new tubes for free out of leniency, checked the components and sent it back. I'm now looking for a more reliable amp that doesn't break the bank but 600-700 euros doesn't justify the goal, and 15 watts is way too loud for my apartment, so I'm looking at 1W to 5W alternatives, the Marshall DSL1 head in particular. It's still made in Asia but it should be more reliable than a Harley Benton and 1 watt of tube power in here is more than loud enough. I'll hook it up to two 2x12 cabs, 1 fitted with Celestion V30 and 1 with creambacks. I've always been a Marshall guy, since the 70s, except for the 90s when I had the very first Peavey 5150 combo, I think it was 60 watts. With the volume halfway up and gain at 3 o clock the ladies in the front of the audience didn't need a hair blower 🤣😅🤣
