Key Features 

• 120 Watts of All-Tube Firepower: Powered by premium hand-selected ECC83 preamp tubes and 6L6 output tubes, delivering thunderous headroom, punchy dynamics, and that unmistakable valve warmth. The amp also allows you to select either 6L6 or EL34 output valve type, giving you the flexibility to tailor your tone.

• 3-Channel Preamp with Switchable Boost: Featuring a full 3-channel preamp with Clean, Rhythm, and Lead channels, plus a footswitchable pre-boost section. The Rhythm and Lead channels feature overhauled gain circuitry that ensures high-impact high-gain tones without excessive flub or mud.

• Enhanced Boost Circuitry: New enhanced boost circuitry on the BCC-IRONHEARTS allows you to drive the amp hard without any of the muddiness and uncontrollable low end associated with lesser amps.

• Vari-Watts Power Attenuation: Features a built-in wattage attenuator that allows you to get the great guitar tone you are after at any wattage level without compromising your tone, ever. Turn it fully clockwise for full output power, or dial it back for reduced volume while retaining that cranked amp feel.

• Push-Pull EQ with Shift Functions: Each channel features a 3-band passive EQ with push-pull pots. Pull the Bass pot for "Deep" (extending low-end response for a fuller, heavier sound), the Mid pot for "Shift" (tightening the midrange), and the Treble pot for "Shift" (broadening the treble response for a rounder tone).

• Cabinet Emulated DI Out: Fitted with a truly awesome sounding cabinet emulated XLR DI out that allows you to connect directly to the PA—removing the need to mic your cabinet and giving the engineer a great consistent sound every time. The source of the DI signal can be switched, allowing you to get a great recording sound using your favourite IR within your DAW. Features a level switch for -30dB (PA/Desk level) or +4dB (Line level) and a ground lift switch for lowest noise performance.

• Variable Effects Loop with Level Switching: Transformer-isolated series FX loop with switchable level allows seamless integration of time-based effects after the distorted preamp section.

• Built-in Digital Reverb: On-board Laney-designed digital reverb adds ambience and brings your tone to life.

• Full Speaker Connectivity: Extension speaker sockets include 1 x 16 Ohm, 1 x 8 Ohm, 2 x 16 Ohms, 1 x 4 Ohms & 2 x 8 Ohms—allowing you to match it with whatever cabinet you choose.

• Aux In: 3.5mm aux input for jamming along to backing tracks or your favourite songs.
