Product Review
It's been a week now and I finally just quit getting my pedal board out, I put a delay through the FX loop and that's all I need, clean dirt, distortion, all at from quiet to playing with a band, it sounds amazing! It's been a week now,, and I ordered a second one yesterday for my daughter, so yes, I recommend absolutely.

Fantastic Amplifier

Product Review
It's been said about me: "most guitar players collect guitars - David collects AMPS"
This is up there with the best amps I've owned over 40+ years. Sweet cleans and articulate distortion. Nice spring reverb too. Low powered enough to enjoy in the house but will CRANK when dialed up. No problem in a band situation.

Heritage?????

Product Review
This comes with Celestion G12H (Heavy Mag) 70th Anniversary....according to Laney site...Not a G12H 30-watt Heritage....like they used to. Heritage speakers use exact same materials and material sources as the originals. Laney Site says Studio Quality Reverb....does not specify Long Spring reverb....as originally spec'd. DOES state they are now made again in UK. May get one...just don't like inaccurate descriptions. Love my UK VC15 110....15 watts, 10 inch Jensen.

Your general opinion of this product.
Nicely built, with a g12H greenback that sounds perfect. The cleans are sweet while the bluesy and beyond overdrive can be reached without making your ears bleed. Great very controllable tone throughout - not heavy metal but plenty of gain accesible otherwise.
extrememly well made fronm the best materials - had it for 2 years and it has performed without a flaw.
easily transportable - around 40 lbs. I mic it for a gig.
great tone I paly a strat, a tele with SD dual humbuckers and an Ibenez hollow body. All come through with their distinctive sound beautifully.
played great out of the box
Nice blue toles
hads worked great for over 2 years.

Probably the best sounding low power combo amp out there

Very high quality "hand made" in the UK amp. Just for the record though, the Lionheart series is not "hand wired." It uses printed circuit boards AKA PCBs. There's absolutely nothing wrong with PCBs, however, and in fact many major amp manufacturers tout and use them, e.g. Mesa Boogie, Orange, Marshall. Just because an amp is hand-wired or point-to-point doesn't necessarily make it better -- usually just a lot more expensive since they take longer to build. Military electronics haven't been hand-wired in decades -- they all use PCBs -- enough said.
Had it for a few weeks with no problems.
Your general opinion of this product.
Amazing looks, quality, and tone for any combo amp -- let alone at this price.
Tolex feels bumpy just like on most amps. :)
Plexi-ish to more modern grind. Gritty clean to full-on blues. Sparkly bright or dark. You name it... you can get it with this amp.
Good stuff.
Sadly, I'm single.

Great versitility tone and drive thru a great little amp

Laney does is right with this little amp. Had a Fender Hot Rod which was a good amp but could not use it to it's fullest due to the volume. This amp allows my Axis to show off all its different tone adjustments and reproduce the sounds of the vintage Vox to the Fender I had in the past. I have not tried the additional 2 by 12 cabinet that is available and am not sure it would be needed. Mike what I brought might just do the job. Ordered this as a scratch and dent but the amp is perfect and shipped complete in the original carton and all components. Hats off to American Music they came thru on a products others could not!
While the amp is fairly new I expect this will not be a problem due to the quality of what I have seen so far. It has one of the best reverbs you can get and cabinet quality is solid. Besides the fact it is a hand wired unit.
Your general opinion of this product.
Would definitly recomend the amp to anyone looking for a well built product and wants to have the sound of tubes. The best part is being able to turn it up and use the full power it was designed to reproduce.
While the controls are to the rear of the amp. In the tipped back mode they aren't as visible to tweak just a little price to pay but they are all clearly marked.
This amp as I said before definitly has cut. Plug in a strat I think you could break crystal. It is very responsive to all picking and offers great sustain with my set up no add on boxes.
Finish quality is the best love the color of the cabinet and the tolex looks classy.
Not a related item.

LANEY LIONHEART 5 WATT TONE BEAST!!!

from the moment you flip the on switch, you can feel the quality!! incredibly well made. even minor details are not overlooked. sturdy handle, plush tolex, and thoughtful tilt mechanism and great features. but the heart and soul, the bread and butter, what you are really buying this for is what is best!! hand wired amp, and solid all the way!!
have had it for less than a week.
Your general opinion of this product.
it is exactly what i was looking for. don't play out anymore and the AC30 was great for gigs, but not very usable in the family room. this amp was the answer to prayers! incredible tone both clean and distorted. as articulate as any amp i have ever played. dynamics are spectacular. the natural overdrive made me put away my TS808. no i don't work for laney; i just think this is the best piece of equipment i have bought in so long. no diaappointments!

the tone is incredible. both clean and distortion channels are creamy! warm and thick at one moment and bright and crisp the next. the amp does it all!
gorgeous cabinet, nice handle, beautiful grille, control panel is sexy!
