Pink Floyd/David Gilmour - Laney Cub12 stack review

This is a demo of the Laney Cub12 15w stack tube amplifier. I'm using a Fender CIJ '65 reissue Stratocaster with Fender CS69 neck and mid pickups and a Seymour Duncan SSL5 bridge pickup with a Boss CS2 and Ibanez DE7.

if i have been using a Fender Champion 600 and I bought a Laney Cub 12 stack, would I be happier with the sound quality? I love playing Pink Floyd and Gary Moore.

Depends on what tones your looking for obviously but the Laney is a bigger amp with more wattage and headroom so I think you'll get more out of it than the 600. The Laney goes nicely with most musical styles.

I have decide to buy laney cub 12, BUT don't know should I buy head and cabinet or the combo?

Is the head/cab too loud for bedroom playing? And is the combo (cub 12r) loud enough for small gigs? Or is there difference at all? I really dont know much of these :)

I hope you got any sense of my question :)

@Tsjouel

I'd buy the stack. The combo doesn't have as much headroom. The stack works nicely for bedrooms and studio/rehearsal but you'd need to mic it on stage, as you normally would. Check out the Fender Blues Jr for something similar and slightly louder.

yo bjorn,

which is the best bridge pickup to get the pompeii echoes sound?

greetings,

David used late 60 models at the time so the Fender CS69 I guess.

Wow man. There's no enough words describing amazing job you are doing on Gilmourish website showing gear and taking apart everything, true tone freak would want.

You playing is exquisite also. Thanks my friend and keep rocking.

@BjornRiis Thanks!!! I have also been mostly using the <1W input...maybe that has an effect... but I will try out your suggestions. (fyi, I have a SSL-5 on the bridge)

Thanks again!!!
