    Oh man I need one of those pink Anderton's crewnecks... and that Laney Cub! I always seem to forget about Laney but every time I hear them I'm impressed as hell with the tones they offer for the money. I need to just nut up and get one.

    Some of the heaviest shows I’ve ever been to were powered by Laney. Freaking killer 100w heads at least. This was the late 90s early 2000s.

    • @OriginalDarkMark
      @OriginalDarkMark 3 года назад

      Agree... When they were hitting the trade shows hard at that time, they had some great bands and artists, and made Marshalls sound like biscuit tins. Great depth, volume with clarity, and tone.

    Laney are based in a place called Halesowen which IS very much in the black country..... Halesowen is near Birmingham but Birmingham is NOT part of the black country.

  • @jarrusjenkins
    @jarrusjenkins 3 года назад

    Oh, and I bought a TI boost from you guys kind of on a whim.....but.... it turns out it's actually really good!
    I find it really useful to get the tones I want.
    I run the volume and treble all the way up, the mid switch in the up position and the bass on about 2.
    Absolutely love it! Prefer it to a tube screamer pedal, although if I were to criticise it, the built in drive is quite noisy, I've tried it with the battery and on my power supply and it's the same, but I didn't buy it for that so I'm really not that bothered.

      @jordandangelo180 3 года назад

      It is very good. I think the Chase Bliss/Meris CXE 1978 Reverb is just as good or potentially better. The faders give you so much control over the sound. I have both automatones and don’t regret buying either and usually I wind up selling expensive pedals that are over hyped but those two are serious feats of engineering.
      But the UA are also as good as it gets. I’m starting see the US Starlight delay on a lot of boards including Pete’s and on TPS.

  • @ljgreene3999

    Got a TI Boost last year, it's pretty nice. Tons of clean boost, good mid-shaping options.
    It was hard to find -- their distribution in Canada is poor. (A tiny distributor waaaay up in Northern Ontario was the nearest dealer I could find.)

      That’s a good thing if you’re playing outside but not inside. An attenuator or the Power Soak invented by the lead guitarist of Boston, Tom Scholz, which is an attenuator also but since he is a genius who went to MIT, amazing guitarist, wrote all those killer tunes and invented a lot of gear like the Rockman which Def Leppard used on their albums, I always separate him into his own league.

    I've heard that the steelpark is based on Laney's Tony Iommi boost pedal, which he helped design. I know nothing about the local geography, but my vague recollection is that Iommi is 'from there', whether that's the Black Country or a place called Steel Park.
    Anyway I want one. Jon at Sonic Drive Studios uses a Steelpark in almost all of his many many amp comparison videos, when he gets to the metal part of his comparison.
