Laney LX35R
Laney · amplifier
The Laney LX35R is a 35-watt, 1x10-inch guitar combo, a step up from the LX20R with a custom-designed 10-inch driver and the addition of an XTS tone-shaping switch, giving an instant mid-scoop and boost to key frequencies on the Drive channel. Like the rest of the LX series it features twin Clean and Drive channels with shared 3-band EQ and onboard reverb, positioned as a mid-tier practice-to-small-gig amp bridging the entry-level LX20R and the larger, twin-channel-EQ LX65R.
