Compareing the c-o-z with my other laney. LC-30, I was disapointed. I fully agree with the usercomments prasing the LC-30. The c-o-z has all the flexability you`ll ever need, but it has lost the LC-30-vintageness. After hours of playing,(trial and error) i found out the c-o-z`s secret. THE LOOPS. This is the way to that old golden sound.
Set the sidechainloop to "insert". You can now operate The amp. "mastervolumvise" Dail in outputlevel. Conect your favorite ext. effect to the par.send and return jacks. It is posible to conect the send and return using an ordinary stompboxcord, without the fx. and still it greatly improves your tone.

Looks really well built. Just one question. How come the dampingsw. operates with greater damping on 1, and less on 2??
