First I have to say this is just an incredible head! It has two channels but with the gain boost it acts like more like a four. I 've had mine for 9 years and going and I never had a single problem with it. It's always worked and performed flawlessly whenever I fire her up. I like that fact that the power tube sockets are mounted on the chasis instead of the board and also like the fact that Laney uses Toroidal transformers which are more expensive to manufacture. Other than that this amp has the goods! The FX loop chain is very cleverly thought out. You can dedicate separate pedals to your channels without altering your sound or configuration with your amp. Brilliant! One thing I can't believe it that this amp has been designed around the mid 90s and hardly anything has changed about it except for the mounted handles. Other than that? It's be tried and true to be the same as it was in the 90's, more importantly all those features has been just as useful today as it was back then. I love the sound of this amp! I can get clean jazzy tones to full saturated distortion. I don't even need pedal for leads. It's that good! This amp does have a very sensitive and interactive tone shaping features so it may take some time to fine tune your sound but I like that way because it gives you the flexibility to find new possibilities and I always do. I seem to always make some adjustments after a few weeks to months and even a year to only find out that I got a better sound than I did from the previous configuration. All it all I've owned many amps, Marshall, Peavey, Orange, Egnater, Mesa, Fender, Rivera and Engl and I have to say they all have something good to offer but at the same time there are things that they lack. The VH100R has exactly what I look for in an amp!

The VH100R features twin footswitchable channels each with its own footswitchable gain, independent 3 band EQ, independent reverb level and dedicated FX loop, giving you an unprecedented level of flexibility. You can now go from a super clean shimmer, to a warm clean crunch, to a stack style distortion to a full on lead tone as simply as stepping on a switch - which is included with the amp (FS4).The by word for the VH100R is flexibility - flexibility of tone and flexibility of use. In this day and age the modern guitar player has an arsenal of products available to them - from single stomp box effects to mighty racks. To cater for this level of choice the VH100R is fitted with five premium ECC83 preamp tubes and four premium EL84 output tubes. If EL84's are not your power tube of choice one can easily switch them with 5881/6L6's with Laneys Switchable Valve Bias. The tonal possibilities are seemingly endless. Plug into one of these with any guitar you have and be amazed at the clarity and level of gain you now have at your control. Laney - Power To The Music.
