Mick and Peter look at the new Laney GH50R amps.
The guitars Mick and Pete played are the Fender Post Modern range (all in Journeyman Relic Finishes), a Gibson ES335 (Petes own one), and a PRS DGT (Micks own one).
Laney - the best kept 'well known' secret in the amp world. The best sound-per-pound out there I reckon.
;-)
It is easy to see they don't believe their ears. This is high end sound on a budget. Very underrated in my opinion.
Not that i dont like chappers, but I like that he does not do some of these reviews.
Pete and mick is awsome!
Why would he do reviews on the Andertons channel? People always say this and it amazes me. This is not his channel. This is a completely different place.
But they could do it on his if they wanted to
I disagree they are to straight edge in my opinion and don't show us the full potential of the product
+Kenton “GeekyLemur” Schroer the reviews take place in the same room, the only diff is they get posted on robs channel, presumably because lee had him in as a demoer and andertons didn't have a UA-cam following back then, per say. I'd take it it's been kept like that through commitment rob from lee.
Great video, one of the best amp demos I've seen in ages!
Look how young they are. Wow time flies
I gig with a Laney VC 30 combo, the most underrated valve combo around .
I also had this amp - 112. Had the parallel effects loop changed to serial, which had the added benefit of changing the "mix" control to master volume.
I have the 210 with Jensen speakers. Great amps.
Gotta say, every time I hear one of these bigger Laneys I'm always impressed. Whether it's Burgs and his LH100 or this. Both clean and dirty, or as a basis for pedals, they're fab.
I’ve had this amp for about two or three years now.
Pros:
It covers A LOT of ground. From chimey cleans to full-on distortion for classic metal. A lot of parameters available for tweaking. SCs, P90s and HBs all sound great through it. Lots of bottom end if you want it and the bright function on ch1 works wonders. The mid boost on ch2 really makes a difference on mid-oriented pickups (SCs and P90s mostly) and less of a difference for scooped HBs. The reverb is usable and the two modes offer some variety. Takes pedals well. Very low noise compared to my friend’s Blackstar Series One 50w head, which is a lot more expensive.
Cons:
The tolex looks a bit thin, low quality and cheap. If you go crazy on the gain control with stock valves it can be a bit fizzy.
Bro that is probably the nicest laney ive ever heard the tone is just amazing pure quality wow just wow this one blew me away and I play more blues rick then anything and this thing sounds sick you could literally do anything with it
You should hear the Laney la 30 head and cab this company kicks ass
This must be the best bang for your buck. Awesome sounds, so open, beautiful... I could listen to this all day long.
I just picked one up yesterday at Music go Round. It had been there over a year. Diamond in the rough. Running it through a EVH 5150 212 cabinet. Killer tone.
This was one of two videos that prevented the amp from getting as big as it would have deserved. The amp is perfect for the british mid saw and can do so much more. But neither the Andertons people, nor Laneys own guy, were able to really get the tone out of it, that it was built for. They use it like some sort of pedal platform. It is not. Combine it with a booster, turn the "tone" knob to the right, use V30s and it just kills, such massive and brutal Sabbath/Saxon etc. tones are possible.
I'll never need another amp. But i need a second GH50R, that's for sure.
Totally agreed. It sucks that Laney didn't do a very good job marketing this awesome piece of kit. I've put the amp through its paces by playing multiple styles (jazzy, blues, hard rock, modern metal) and it accomplishes all of it with no problems. It does highly benefit from a booster or an overdrive to push that gain over the edge. I'll never get rid of this head.
A year and a half ago, when I was looking for an amplifier, all the pieces were already bought ... I knew I wanted exactly it!
I managed to test it (GH50R-212) wow and I was in love, balance, width, compactness, wonderful clear sound, rock, to incredible hard metal! But they managed to steal my last piece again. I was forced to invest in something small and meaningful (Boss Katana mk2) with the idea of waiting, if necessary, for centuries to get it ...
And what can I tell you, yesterday was my lucky day, after almost 2 years of wandering he arrived again, I said to myself, I have to be 1st.
I already have this diamond at home. I decided to jump on (GX100R) the eldest brother of the GH family.
I don't need any other brand, because here Laney has put everything not at 100 but at 101%
P.S.
As a fan of Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, this amp even conquers the reefs of the Pantera ... It's amazing!
Well it TOTALLY is a pedal platform in my book, but in that exact way you described it. A good booster transforms this thing in a total beast. The Volume/Output controls in conjunction with the tone knob are incredibly useful and versatile. You can go from Alice in Chains to Exodus by adjusting the mids and tone within 5 seconds
This is a great review!!!! You guys really give an idea of how it feels to sit in front of the amp and play around :) Thanks :)
some great tones there guys. And I see the improvement over the old GH range.
Just love everything these guys do
Great Hawaiian shirt Pete, looks vintage and collectable.
Great playing guys as usual and a thorough review!
Totally agree with dragging the big amps about. I had big amp for years then went to victory v30. Now I'm back on big amps now
Great review lads!!!
That tele has insanely high output pick-ups for a single coil guitar! Sound so good!
Fancy FA Not really higher output, per se. Tele pickups are just like that compared to a Strat. Flat pole pieces and a steel base plate under the bridge pickup give them more muscle without much more wire windings. Telecaster is a rock machine! Dig it.
How would you compare this amp to the Friedman Runt 20? Or Morgan MVP23?
Sounds great guys!
Nice amp! My question is. It can handle the low end of a 8 string guitar? I play a variety of styles, but I need a versatile tube head. Right now my main amp is a Laney IRT60w head + 2x12 custom cab. Thanks!
you,ve cracked it there
tone dont get much better than that
That's an amazing amp!
This amp sounds great!
Sounds great!
excellent demo
So Leonardo di Caprio is a guitarrist now?
Sand am Meer yes, and he is Danish
some really great tones! is the effects loop footswitchable?
Which Pedal is used for switching this an the Laney 100 GH L ???? thanks Guys!!!!!
Very attractive looking vintage style amp! When are they going to be available? here in the USA?
This made me happier than I would have thought possible. If this is manufactured in the UK, then I shall have to overhaul my budget.
When will this be available, and for what price?
I'm on a mission to find a second-hand one (as they are unfortunately discontinued), however, I am not sure if GH50R is enough for gigging or should I go for GH100R?
love that PRS
That sounds lush!!!
Besides the killer amp I think you've shown Tele's to be the most versatile guitar on the planet!
;-)
Good sounds.
Is there something going on with Laney, as these amps was released more than 2 years ago, and they are not sold anywhere? I would buy the 30w head if I could find it.. I just can't.
Im trying to get the Laney LA30 head and i have run into the same problem.
@@lastofthe4horsemen279 sry to say, I gave up and got a used AC30 head instead. Happy with that thoigh.
These are actually no longer being manufactured :(
I'm seriously considering this amp for my stoner/postmetal band now. I need something with sweet tasty cleans that can also bring the ultra heavies whilst allowing pedals to pass through it smoothly. Gotta check the cleans on the Ironheart range first though. But this is a damn sweet deal for what's within my price range (alternatively I would go for something like a Marshall JCM800 or an Orange Rockerverb 50H).
Oh yeah so, thanks for the review guys!
Hey man, I'm in the same boat actually. What decision did you make? As of right now I'm working digitally due to college/finding my sound. Getting a proper amp in a year or so
Well since I won't have money for a new amp for some months probably I've actually been talking to a friend about putting in different tubes into my 5150 head, which is what I've been using so far. It works, but it lacks the definition I want and the cleans just aren't as great as I'd like either. So the current strategy is to see what I might be able to get out of that and at some point I'll see if it becomes my backup amp and I get myself a Laney GH50R, an AOR50 or an Orange or Marshall or something.
The older Laney GH50L might be just up your alley.
That Tele sounds great in that amp
...completely missing from the Andertons website - no GH amps at all !
I just bought this amp. It's not a plug n play amp. Needs tweaking to get your sound....but when there....wow... amp to me has a bit more of bottom end. That maybe because Im running it through a Friedman 1x12 open back. lots of tones in this amp.... oh, and its quite loud!
I have the 2x12 combo and i agree with you,it's quite easy to dial in a bad sound but when you find your sweet spot it sounds fantastic.
Why do they send all the time on the clean channel
wow...i just realized that is this guy from that pedal show...
+VinylScratch37 Also former editor of Guitarist magazine, and still freelances for it. Much better here, more fluid, more fun, better playing. Maybe not more pay, but...
Nick here, Hello!
it does sound muddy though. maybe how they dial it
So weird seeing Mick without his Strat.
Yes, but is it any good for Doom and Stoner?!
asking the important questions here
It dooms. Although mine is a TT50. Which is almost impossible to find. But they sound very close. Search Kentucky Ugly on Bandcamp as we just started posting tracks. There are 1 or 2 featuring the Laney up now and more dropping every couple of weeks. Played a Les Paul Standard and pushed with a Tube Screamer. I'll put that amp against any out there hands down. Other than EQ, my tracks haven't been touched in the mixing.
LoVE the way they say my name
nice playin
Impressive amp with the 4/12 cab air movement.....but in the real world at home, non guitarists missus, babies, neighbours......? How much 'real' difference is there at low volumes to a good smaller amp? Perhaps you could look at that comparison in the future PH? For all us now non-gigging, family 'retired performers', noodling at homey's?
Got to mention the 'shirt' thing going on there too guys, same store sale?? :)
+bvninja I imagine the combo version of this amp would be fantastic for a home tone.
+bvninja For a drive sound at lower volumes, use less speakers (down to one). I believe that's the most important rule there. The second most important rule is clean head room. A lower watt amp will start to break up in the power section at lower volumes than an amp with more watts.
I would never imagine an amp head + 4x12 or 2x12 to be for 'at home' use, unless you live in a remote area or have a well sound-insulated room.
Great review! Is Pete German ?
+30yrpro He's called "Danish Pete." So, yeah, probably....
Is it just me, or did they borrow a lot of their background aesthetic from ChicagoMusicExchange?
Guys, did you talk each other into wearing similar shirts in the morning before you got there?
How much guys? I cant find it on your website
ta
+SeventhState More info will be coming very soon
+SeventhState Around 915 Euros in Germany :)
Good Hard 50 Rock
Interesting.
that strat is so white.
Gotta love the mixolydian!/dorian transitions at start!
God dayum, that Strat! No string tree, so sexy.
If you can't associate the Tele with rock then perhaps you should listen to some Zeppelin.
They look incredibly similar to the blackstar HT series amps.
like watching top gun
I dont know if Greg and Terry from Family Guy do gear reviews but if they did..........
Aren't they from American Dad? :-)
Yeah sorry. My bad
Mick: "We killed the ... uhm ... "
Pete: "Radio star ... "
Gold :D :D :D
I wonder, why everyone is really happy with Laney amps in demos, but so few people are actualy using them as their main amp.
show should be called GEAR Paradiso since you review things other then guitar
Should guitarguitar change its name to geargear, since they sell more than just guitars?
+cody thompson Other things...with a GUITAR plugged in ;-)
Yeah i get it but paradiso means heaven or paradise. And its not all guitar. Just makes more sense to me.
Guitare gear
This amp sounds like a Marshall Plexi on meth! I love the tone of it. Slightly more gain or harshness but in a good way!
Creeps me out that Peter is Always staring at mick..... Seriously what in the world?
+Evan Frazier Its called interaction. When two people are having a discussion its quite common for one to look at another. Hard to believe, I know, in a world where a generation seem to communicate through smart phones... ;-)
Whats a smart phone?
+Evan Frazier do you not have friends?
Whats a friends?
Tasteful playing, tasty gear and the worst taste in shirts on the internet.
Noooo !! Danish Pete is now gazing in to Mick's eyes as he is playing !? Oi - no !!
Always.... :)
The way Pete stares in to Micks eyes all the time makes me feel a little uncomfortable
I think its sweet
that mid a shift doesn't seem to do anything.
I have this Amp for sale the GH50R head and GS 2 x 12Cab.. Ive tried to like it, for me it doesn't cut it cleans are not bad tho - l since got a EVH 50w head and mesa 2 x 12's its on another playing field all together l can get all the sounds l want with all my guitars with my FX8... Even sounds bad on this channel😖...YUK horrible piece of equipment
Great vids lads but FFS STOP staring at each other Mun.......
Each time you look into the other's eyes while one of you is playing you look like your about to make sweet disgusting love
Not that i dont like chappers, but I like that he does not do some of these reviews.
Pete and mick is awsome!
