So I sell a Laney LC15R because I'd like a modelling amp for home use (ideally a flextone).
Walk into a shop then walk out with a Peavey Windsor Studio 20 watt 1x12 valve amp.
I really liked the sound of it and the built in power soak seems really useful.
It's been upgraded to a Jensen speaker (it says CR12 8Ohm but that means nothing to me)
So my plan of getting something a bit more home friendly has essentially failed but at least I've got a cool looking amp that makes a sound I like.
I might gig it this weekend..........

Spent an hour playing with the amp last night. REally happy with it - sure it's a one trick pony but it does that trick rather well.
The attenuator works well, it looks snazzy - very happy with it.
Once again if Marshall made this amp slapped a £500 pricetag on it I'm sure it would sell like hotcakes
Currently the amp has an EL34 in in it and sounds very marshally. Which is great but i want a bit more clean on tap.
You can change the power valves over and i've a spare 6L6GC knocking around. SO i'm thinking i could change the single power amp valve over and have a listen to to how it sounds.
Being only a single power valve amp do i need to do any bias checking or is it simply a case of unplug the valve and plug the new one in?
Changed the valve over - it's like having a new and much better amp.
Really chuffed. Now to remove it from the classifieds.....
That doesn't mean it sounds *bad*, of course - just that the power rating claim is bogus and the amp is very unlikely to stay clean up to anything like it.
