Pulled the trigger on a Little Lanilei 3350lt,should be here next week.Sumi:D
 
Good show Sumi. We need a comprehensive review of that little bugger. I'm seriously considering the Super 50, which is the tame/clean version of the 3350LT.

I heard some clips recently of the 3350 and it sounds real sweet. Plus, it goes easily into the PA or a bigger cab. Damn, now I've got GAS.
 
Well the little bugger came and I have a guitar at my shop,I think this will be a great home amp,it does have three different voices and can get that gain dirt at cool volume levels.I'm glad I got this one and not the Super 50 because you just can't get that tube sounding OD with a pedal and this is at a non ear shattering level,can't wait to plug it in a ex cabinet.Sumi:D
 
Man I thought that lunchbox had some punch,I plugged it into the greenback in my blues junior and wow! it nice having three flavors,I will need the foot switch for it.Wattage I'd say easy 20+ tube it will easily blow the doors off my blues jr. with more to go,but it's different cause if it's say in the gain mode it wont clean up by rolling off the guitar volume only get quieter,that's why the footswitch would be cool to go from clean to dirty channels,nice tube voicing.Sumi:D Gunna give it a workout over my friends tomorrow. Man something wrong with this computer posted and it posted 3 times please remove a couple for me see ya!:zzz

You sure about this Sumi?? I think Tris at Mahaffay Amps would disagree with you here on this point IIRC on some back-and-forth e-mails I had with him.

Hey, how long did it take you to get the amp after you ordered it?
 
Don't get me wrong pie you could drive it with a pedal but my ears just hear the diff between the pedal and the tube,I got this off e-bay so 4 days 400.00 to the door.Man did you see and hear that 2 watt East amph Radioboy posted,I'm blown away at the advances these amph builders are comming up with,I feel like a kid in a candy store.Which one to try next?Sumi:D
 
The great thing about the Little Lanilei is that in a package that is essentially a 10 lb 8" cube, that you can go from 1/4 watt up to 50 watts. Another great feature is how they make it so compatible to hook to a cab.
 
I think hooking up an ex cab is the way to go,that cab is small and that sound wave shock is tuff on those tubes.Sumi:D
 
I got a feeling the guy who sold this wasn't happy because it sounded like a scratchy pot when I turned the volume pot on my guitar,so I e-mailed Tris and found out the tubes were in the wrong spot,it's even nicer now,through a ex cab is the way to go.Sumi:D :rockon
 
This is turning out to be an awesome home amph,I love the sound from it.It's the right volume,got some awesome fendery cleans,can get crunchy and can sound full blown also.The more I play through it the more I like it.Sumi:D
 
Sorry I'm still computer retarded,I still don't know how to load pictures up and have no sucess with Audcity yet,I keep trying though.I have to learn this stuff on my own cause I don't know anybody who will show me.Sumi:D
