Re: Laney AOR 50 watt head
I just pulled My Laney out of mothballs today. Here's an old pic:
I used to use this amp back in the day for just it's power section. I ran an ADA MP-1 pre through it, and got good tones. I could never get used to the shrillness of it's internal preamp's high end. I plugged it in today, to see if I could get some useful tones out of her (The ADA is long gone). As much as I tried, I just could not dial out that shrieky high end. I love the mid and bass boost, but when soloing on the E & B strings it just wasn't sounding good. Can you guys that own this amp suggest any settings? Or possibly suggest some tube (preamp or power) that might help tame the upper end of this beast? Any suggestions would be great. Thanks!
