Well I'd been trying out a few different OD pedals and hadn't found the elusive sound...not even close. Seems to me if ya run any OD pedal through a fender it sounds like fender OD . Which has its uses.... but it wasn't "that sound"
Well I'm at this mates place (who happens to have "more gear than a bull could shit")and i see this little amp. I'm like "whats this go like" He's like "Have a jam, its a lot of fun.
Well I plugged it in and....... ..."that sound" came from it.
It's a Laney LC15.... not a LC15R....(the R dont have "that sound)
The LC15 is a little 1x10 combo that sound a bit boxy but great through a 1x12. Plenty loud enough. Its got one channel with not much clean going on and heaps of drive.
So Rocky built me a AB switch and I'm running the Laney and the HRD.
So I've pulled it apart and making a head 1x12 cab set up.
Here's where I am so far.

Not yet... will make a back for it today and look for a handle. Feet will be rubber door stops from placemakers.tubeswell wrote:Very tidy. You got some feet/handle coming?
Might put a fan in the back as I'm gonna gig the wee thing.

Re: Lil Amp Project.
FWIW Weta Guitars in Wellington sells those bog standard cab handles by Ernie Ball (steel reinforcing strap wrapped in plastic) for about $25 AFAIR - usually they have them in stock. Ryan Thomas has them too but I can't remember what price his ones are (maybe $20?).crowbgood1 wrote:Not yet... will make a back for it today and look for a handle.
