i think this amp was made around 87 but not positive.it's preety versitile i play mainly hard rock/punk/metel and it has a great sound for that also has a great clean channel.and they are switchable too. effects loop i have never used so i dont know much about it great all tube sound. four power tubes four pre amp tubes and very loud i play in a band and i normal dont play louder then volume 3!! very very loud

Sound Quality : 9
i play with single coil pickups and it sounds great the only problem is when you use a lot of pedels it schreechs a lot.it gets kinda noisy with the gain on ten.if you want a black sabbath sound here it is!!!the distortion is great and is loud

Reliability : 10

I believe this amp was made between 85 and 88. I play heavy agressive guitar one of my guitars being a schecter 7 string and this amp just sounds unholy. Its got channel switching and push pull knobs .It is a very loud one hundred watts.

Sound Quality : 10
This amp has got that classic Criss Oliva tone from the Savatage album "Streets". It is very warm and can be very hard to control.It really has more gain than you need.The amp can be noisy when you have the gain on 10.My Schechter 7 string Avenger has Duncan pickups in it and they match the amp very well.

Reliability : 10
I actually dropped this amp off of the trunk of my car. I went home plugged it in to find no problems. It os a beast.

Customer Support : No Opinion
I have owned it just over a year and have had not one problem.

Overall Rating : 10
The only other amp with gain this great is a Mesa triple rectifier. I think that pretty much sums that up.

Channel switching all tube amp with plenty of power. Very versatile amplifier. Can get the sound of a Fender twin (without the reverb)and a turbocharged Marshall. Effect send and receive. Great for all types of music. Best lookng head Laney ever made.

Sound Quality : 10
Sounds killer with single coils or humbuckers. I use it with a Marshall single 12" box (with an EV12L speaker) and it fills any club with great tone. More lead tone than you will ever expect to get. I have a Sunn, Marshall, a Music Man and have had lots of Fenders. This thing makes them sound solid state to me.

Reliability : 10
Never had one problem so I can say it's super reliable. Contrary to my Marshalls! I looked inside and it's quality made compared to my other amps.

Customer Support : No Opinion
Never had a problem so I don't know about their customer support.

Overall Rating : 10
If your thinking about a British amp and like tons of gain... this amp can't be beat. Listen to Tony from Black Sabbath.... he's played them for 30 years.
