    I just got one of these, it's basically a Marshall style classic rock amp with lower watt settings. I love that and it's what I wanted, but if you're getting this for cleans, they're ok, but you're getting the wrong amp. A lot of people don't like Marshall amps, despite their reputation. I kind of love watching somebody find that out first hand. I love Vox amps but you've got to max them out for them to sound good so that's why I went for this. Good video though.

    Yes, I agree. It's intended to look 'boutique' but although it's good, it isn't quite up to that in my mind.

    I think it's a taste thing. I personally enjoy the sound of the Cub Super series (at least so far), I've a Cub Super 10 practice amp. I do agree, however, that they're not perfect in terms of sound but I think that one can get a variety of sounds by using the EQ and tweaking a bit with pedals/boosters, etc. I think it's easier to get a good clean sound of these than a distorted one. I think your tone with this amp wasn't all that bad.

    @@GuitarStuffChannel I think Laney just has an overall rounder kind of tone. It might not be one's thing if you're into really 'American' kinds of sounds. I actually like this kind of sound, don't really enjoy harsh/piercing highs, so for me, it sounds good.

    The circuit of Laney Cub shows it is a completely pure tube amp. It can be pushed by any overdrive/dist pedal to improve tube clipping nicely. Other amps like Blackstar etc. have chip-based overdrive/dist even amp sim circuits in the preamp stage to make them sound thicker/fuller. The result is a better amp sound but if you push them with pedals, you will get not nice metallic robotic distortion tones..

    Your playing sounds quite good though this amp, actually. I think the clean sound is actually quite good, probably not 'boutique amp' tone (or the most 'elite' tone you can find), but it's certainly round and pleasing to the ear.

    I don't have the amp any more, but it acts like a normal boost in front of the amp. So increase gain and volume up to a point, but then after it's really loud then just gain.

    Depending on your music style maybe this is really not for you. This will be a more British rock sound when boosted, and flat clean sounds. For me sounds good. I would like to hear you playing with a guitar like a Les Paul. I am just returning a Bad Cat 15r today. Not enough distortion in my opinion. Maybe I got the wrong Bad Cat…maybe the Hot Cat would be the one for me…but I am planning to try this Laney or a Fender Bassbreaker.
