Laney Ironheart Mini Stack, WILL IT CHUG?

Of course it chugs, Love your videos Ola. 😀😀

you can connect it to tonebridge apps and get different heavy tones.

Spinal Tap: This amp goes to 11! Ola: *This amp goes to 5*

[@balazstoth2753]

to be fair most of the amps don't change the volume much after 12 o'clock, they loose their tone and go into a bad distortion.

[@ladyelect9274]

@@InTheSh8 man that yamaha thr10 the high gain one is still impressive compared to this new stuff

[@hinjurock70]

@@InTheSh8 Fuck all that downloadable amp sim and digital effects computer nerd shit - I just want a simple small amp that gets a good clean tone and a good heavy tone. The original Roland Cube blew the Katana away - they had more amp models and more effects, all for only $100. Now they're like $150 and have less features, and also aren't battery powered. I guess it was too good of an amp for the price, so the profit margin wasn't high enough.

[@Professional.Bro.777]

@@InTheSh8 i appreciate your kindness in your disagreement, most people on youtube are assholes, however i do agree with you regarding the ODs and external pedals in general with these kinda amps

[@nckhed]

@@InTheSh8 I have a Katana 50 and it's a pretty nice amp. My only complaint is that the clean channel isn't the best, but it's also a $230 amp. However, after reading through comments, I learned that some people use the acoustic channel as a clean channel. Tried it and the clean tone is much better and there's also a slight break-up when playing with more pick attack. I didn't much care for the onboard chorus effects, so I bought a Boss Super Chorus pedal and it makes my clean tone sound really dreamy. The amp itself really chugs and is very loud, too.

[@tankdarla637]

Duuuuude it sounds way better than I ever expected

@@skaldlouiscyphre2453 cool I'll have to check the vtm out. I read somewhere they were the same designer. The bandit and the 5150.

[@skaldlouiscyphre2453]

@@ErikAnders James Brown is his name, he worked for Kustom for awhile too. Now he runs Amptweaker. There's a few different Peavey Bandits, I've got the Solo Series Bandit 65. It sounds quite a bit like a VTM. The newer ones have more gain and are tighter and maybe smoother sounding as well, more like a 5150. As far as I know the VTM was his first amp he designed for Peavey, in some ways it was their attempt at a Soldano-ish sounding amp. The 5150 was basically just a hot-rodded VTM. James Brown mentioned that the AmpTweaker TightMetal is derived from the old Ampeg VH-140 preamp. Apparently the VH-140 has nearly the same frequency response as the 5150 but came out before the 5150. All my favourite amps are rip-offs of each other.

It feels weird that you didn't hook up an overdrive to it. I need that sweet sweet feedback noise

[@rmp5s]

I just like how you say "mee-knee stack". lol

[@MoosicDude]

It's cool from the design point of view. The several small hifi-speakers look derivative of mobile/smartphone external speakers. It's a better solution at this size than having usually one farty little 4-5 inch speaker trying to handle all the frequencies. Also the way the they're powered might account for the weird power supply, though its weirder still that they didn't supply one. It's a cool toy or a lightweight practice solution you could fit in a suit case, but in that sense the guitar would still just as inconvenient to travel with. Either way, it's the best sounding mini stack I've heard so far.

[@kurtmampaey1208]

This mini stack also works with a 9v adapter, the batteries also give 6x1.5v=9v. at the back is stated: 9-12V DC 750mA

[@MetalKllaw]

I have one of those (well, not exactly, mine's a mini combo not a mini stack) and they're pretty cool to practice or use in an apartment.

If I'm not mistaken, Ola have already kind-of reviewed an Ironheart. A big one, say. But is one of his oldest videos. Like from 7 or 8 years ago. he he he

[@FloodExterminator]

I have an idea that could be interesting for this series: An acoustic guitar with a piezo pickup plugged into an amp.

[@JeffBarberDigideus]

You should totally feature more Laney gear. The old Prolinebacker heads are still around today. I have the Laney Ironheart IRT Studio amp on my desk and with a tube screamer or a TC Eyemaster in front of it, it makes a lovely noise! I reckon I could gig with it and a 2x12 cab, and it makes a great little desktop amp for recording with my Torpedo Captor and a DI box. (Yes, i know the IRT Studio does have a load box built in, but the captor gives me more options for other heads, like my Marshal JVM410)

Awe yeah Laney kills! Their mini combo amps are awesome, you can bolt a guitar strap onto them and busk or play anywhere. They chug and also sound great playing acoustic/electric, & w/Bluetooth! Also take pedals very well. Use your fingertip to change the delay btw. It’s got a phase shift built in which makes a subtle tonal shift at low delay levels.

Like a good guitar tone, but with a high pass filter at the end of the chain. I wouldn't want it as a rhythm sound, but it would probably work in a mix for overdubs.
