Just need to upgrade the speaker ✌🏻
i wonderif an eq in the send and return would improve
Que tal te salio este . Yo compre ya 2 super cub 12 combo y los 2 se romperon se bajava y subia el volumen a las 3 semanas me cambiaron por garantia
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.

I quite like the styling, kind of retro, 'wireless-y'!

Yes, I agree. It's intended to look 'boutique' but although it's good, it isn't quite up to that in my mind.
Look forward to the Bad Cat review. There's superb!

Coming soon! When I get the time.
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.

Thanks for your comment. This is a good point. When I listen back to the demo it doesn't sound that bad/pretty good.

@@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 read is difficult to replace tubes on the Cub Super12, is it true also for the Supertop?

I’m sorry but I don’t know
Does the on board booster increase the gain or the volume (or both)?

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.
Tone feel and musicality are in the hands, the amp will only enhance this....no offence intended.

None taken. There's a lot to be said for tone being in the fingers. In fact I said it myself in the video when I said that Lari Basilio can make any gear sound good.

@@GuitarStuffChannel Having said that, I took delivery of one last week and can honestly say it sounds amazing for such an affordable amp. It still doesn't make me sound as good as Lari though!😉
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.

Interesting point. Yes, this amp isn't for me. I just posted a Bad Cat review, I got a lot of distortion out of it with a Les Paul.
I like sound in videos. I listen the ht1 vídeo andar ac10 and like more the laney. I Don't know
why didn't you just get a fender, unless your short of cash?
