This is a demo of an amp on the floor unit from Laney Amplifiaction.
I bought this recently after foolishly trying it out at a store and, having so far escaped the phenomenon of compact class D powered floor or pedalboard units, thought this was fantastic.
It was demonstrated at GuitarGuitar in Edinburgh recently by Tom Quayle and Martin Miller and although I didn't attend as I don't really care for 'Fusion' styles, I have been impressed by the styling of Tom Quayle. Such an amazing guitarist and he apparently likes Laney so much that he and Martin Miller got signature units. This one is the lower gain one endorsed by Tom Quayle.
He used this one at the event!

Laney have an illustrious history in Rock™ having been the main amplifier brand for Tony Iommi and they are the sound of Black Sabbath so another brand other than Marshall to be proud of and in fact, since this is made in the UK and a lot of Marshall stuff isn't anymore, it should be a source of pride here in Britain to have such a company.

I bought this with my own money and have no connection whatsoever with the maker by the way. I'm trying to be objective and I buy because I like things...

It's an analogue front end 2 channel amp in a box with a very loud 60 Watts of class D amp with options to power an 8 or 16 ohm cabinet or go direct into a mixer with the preloaded impulse responses on board. There is software too to load more.

It sounds good and will be perfect for gigs. Just pop it in the bag and go. No more bumping valves around and having the dreaded white cloud on the top of your precious and expensive output valves.

It could also be a great backup for your primary amp too and it's quite cheap for what it is really.

I'm using a PRS Silver Sky in this and a Two Rock 2x12" cabinet for the first part and straight into a Presonus Studio 68C for the IR loaded XLR output.
