Product Description

The Laney CUB12R features great straight ahead vintage valve tone with a splash of high quality reverb. The Laney CUB12R houses a Celestion 12 inch driver and pushes out up to 15 watts RMS of pure vintage valve tone.

Let's take a look at the preamp, this consists of the following controls from right to left - gain, treble, middle, bass, volume, tone and finally reverb.

The Laney CUB12R's valve complement consists of 3 x ECC83 valves in the preamp giving you the ability to dial in plenty of gain, and the output section consists of 2 x EL84 output valves, which give you that classic British tonality to the amp when they are pushed hard. The Laney CUB12R features a nifty output trick - if you look at the front panel you'll notice two input sockets, one labeled 15W, the other labeled <1W. If you plug into the 15W socket you get the full power of the amp, 15 Watts of wonderfully warm valve tone. Plug into the <1W and you get .75 of a Watt output. This allows you to drive the amplifier as hard as you like, giving you masses of power amp compression and a pleasing break up for that elusive DARK ART tone.

The Laney CUB12R's rear panel features everything you'll need, additional speaker outs with both 8 & 16 Ohm options, a footswitch socket for switching the reverb and an effects loop. The Laney CUB12R offers a welcome addition to the Laney tube amp range giving everyone the opportunity to experience the sound and feel of a good quality tube amp. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Laney products.

Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (12 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. Laney CUB12R Guitar Amp Customer Review
Sound: I have tried several other 15w tube amps in this class (including the Fender Hot Rod Blues Junior III), and I have to say that this is probably the best of the bunch, in terms of sound and value. Whereas I found the Junior to sound a little too brittle, the Laney Cub 12R gives a much warmer tone that's not harsh on the ears - thanks probably to the 12" Celestion Rocket Speaker. You get a little spank, WITHOUT the ice-pick jaggedness of the Blues Junior. I find the Cub 12R to very responsive and it complements the sound of my Gibson Les Paul Junior very well. Feature: This amp gives you a GREAT feature set for its class (especially for me, who bought mine as a blem at zZounds for MUCH less than the regular price). The separate 15w and 1w inputs give you the option of either full sound at gig-able volumes, or full sound at bedroom levels. The digital reverb is quite nice, though I hardly use it. The 12" Celestion Rocket speaker gives you warm, singing tones rigt out of the box. Some people have lamented that this speaker is a cheaper Celestion, but hey - they had to keep the price down somehow, right? Anyhoo, there are separate controls for Gain, Volume, Bass, Mid and Treble. There is also a "Tone" control, which pretty much acts as a Presence control for the overall tone of the amp. The amp design itself is retro cool, and seems well built. To top everything off, the amp is LIGHT!!! I almost forgot to mention the tilt-back mechanism, which makes onstage monitoring a breeze. Ease of Use: Dialing in the tones I want is quite easily achieved with this amp. Quality: Funny...mine was a "blem", but I could not find any defects on it, whatsoever. Seemed perfect out of the box. Value: Awesome, all-tube amp at a GREAT price! Manufacturer Support: Haven't had to deal with them yet. The Wow Factor: It's a cool little (and loud) all-tube amp in a sexy little retro package. I find the amp to have a lot of "play me" appeal, and that's exactly what I do. Overall: It's taken me a lot of time and money to finally find this amp, so I'll be keeping it for a while.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "King of the small amps"
Overall: I wanted an amp for bedroom volumes and ocassional cranking.I luv this one, and i have had many over 40 years.Without trashing all of the others,here's the good stuff: Easy to control volume on both 1 and 15 watt inputs,Nice clean sound and nice distortion that is kind of a vintage and modern mix. Decent reverb that does not sound splashy or tanky with distortion.Effects loop that i can use for my drum machine.Lightweight,good workmanship, dead quiet,best price to value ratio.Break in the speaker ( you can look that up online )I ordered this from zZounds and got it in 3 days!!!Would i pay $100.00 for another channel? No, as i prefer a good clean sound with various pedals for distortion variety.But you can plug straight in and be happy.

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!
