Laney Review: HCM-60R Hardcore Max

Laney Guitar Amplifiers



History:

Purchase: Iīm a mexican guy with a metal band. I donīt have enough money for a Marshall, but I heard about this amp. It costs about $300, with a GOOD speaker and power (60 WATTS RMS). I bought it at a YAMAHA LOCAL STORE, at Pachuca Hgo. Mexico

What I Like About This Laney HCM-60R Hardcore Max: As well I said, i liked the price, affordable for me, a great look, 2-channel each with EQ each one. The big speaker, and a razonable power 60 WATTS RMS , very good for small gigs. Also I liked a lot the clean sound, no as well as a tube amp, but really good for that price.

What I Do NOT Like About The Laney HCM-60R Hardcore Max: Well first, the gain so bassy, when it gets loud, it looses the dinamics of guitar, but with a good pedal board or a distorsion pedla you can fix it. A bad thing, specially if you donīt have a acar, is the weight, TRY TO CARRY IT ALONE FOR 30 MIN. JEJEJEJJEEE

Laney HCM-60R Hardcore Max Quality Rating: Itīs very strong, you can siton it, stan onit, kick it, also has a strong fence to protect the speaker. I also recommend to Laney to put wheels to the model.



Review Summary: IF you are starting a serious band, donīt have a money for marshallīs, or want a different amp with another sounds buy it. I LOVE MY LANEY

Laney TF300 - It rocks, what else could i say, try it!...

Laney HCM120R - If you want your metal to sound flat, with no dynamism, then buy this amp. If you want to annoy your neighbours, buy this amp. (They'll only be annoyed by the poor choice of amp, though!)...

Laney R1 - doe severything i want it too, its only 65 watts, but i dont have a car and i may be moving abroad soon and i want to take it with me if i can so its ideal, i did ask the guy at the shop about the Hardcore max series Laney do but thats more for punky...

Laney VC-30 2x12 - If you like that vintage tone but don`t have the money for a twin or bassman, then this is a great value for money replacement. Why buy an amp that has been to hell and back just to say you have a Fender? I play my Strat, Tele and George Benson Ibane...

Laney VC30 212 - All in all, this is a GREAT amp. Some people probably wouldn't like it, but I absolutely LOVE it. To be honest, when you go out buying amps you should play as many as you can so you see what you like and what you don't like, and see what best fits ...

Laney GC-50 - over all it is a great amp and will seve you well. ive played it in small bars and ive not had any problems with it. i guess it just depends on your musical stylization though. i myself play alot of blues ie SRV BB King Clapton as well as cassic stuf...

Laney HCM65R - Um, yeah, a very solid amp but a word of warning: you'll wake the neighbors if you turn it up past 5 Don't listen to me though go look at one today!...

Laney Tubefusion 300 - Basicalll the next best thing to a tube amplifier, the tubefusion gives all the tone all the classic crunch of a tube at a lot cheaper cost...the amount of control the player has over the sound that this amp puts out means that it could be used for p...
