his 30 watt combo delivers 3 channels of great tone to take to any gig and saves your back while doing it. Clean channel is great with nice digital reverb. Global effects loop for leads and/or using across all channels. Great Laney styling in a compact 112 combo. Have yet to check out the DI. You can dial in most any tone you hear in your head if you spend the time to balance out the tone stack against the push pull boosts. Being an AOR fan I am in love with this little guy,although this combo will do more than metal and do it well. My only complaint is local availability to trial the amplifier before purchase. I bought it on the Laney name alone with confidence I could return it to MF if it didn’t meet my expectations. This amp is a keeper and my 412s are going to give this guy a rest for a while.
