Laney RICHTER Series - RB2 - Bass Guitar Combo Amp - 30W - 10 inch Woofer and HF Horn

Nothing to dislike. A punchy small bass amplifier with lots of features that takes up very little space. This is my third. I gave the first to my son when he was learning bass. The second I part exchanged upgraded to a much larger Laney which was far too loud for home use. So I have downsized again and these little combos are still great. And the neighbours are much happier. I preferred the old steel grilles but this is brilliant nonetheless.

Faultless sound and unbelievable volume - can handle small pub rock gig no problems.

Very impressed with this piece of equipment. It has so many use options. The delivery and packaging was excellent. I have used the RB2 for Bass Guitar use and the sound options are fantastic. So far as value for money - top notch.A great item of proven British made quality. Thoroughly recommended thankyou.

A budget Bass amp, it is lacking in low-end bass, but is fine for practice and it has plenty enough volume to annoy the neighbours. The controls are useful and reasonably effective when considering it is being fed from a Bass guitar. There is a bit of buzz pick up if nothing is plugged in, but it quietens down in use with properly screened leads and a properly screened guitar.The small cabinet has a nice solid feel to it, and is covered with a black felt. The handle is well placed to carry it without banging into ones legs. All the controls and connectors are recessed to protect them from inadvertent knocks. The kick-back shape is handy so one can see the controls when standing up while the amp is on the floor.I've used a 3metre IEC mains lead in place of the 1.7metre lead supplied.Alas, the Aux input 'for CD player' and headphone output are mono 3.5mm jacks only, so suitable adaptors or leads will be needed to mix a stereo source into the Aux and also to feed sound out to both ears of a stereo headphones.There is no gain adjustment for the Aux input and the output volume is a bit low and lacking in low bass even when fully adjusted up from my ear-player, and useless from the non-adjustable CD player.The headphone output is low level on all my headphones, even the most sensitive and efficient, at about a tenth of the level from the ear-player and again light on low bass.I'm happy with using the amp as a basic practice amp, so will be having a look at modifying the circuits around the pair of 3.5mm jacks to sort the levels and lack of low bass.

Was pondering between this RB2 and a Rumble. Decided to go with this as it has a ten inch speaker and a horn. My bass guitar sounds great. Can even play my 6 string guitar through it. Small and compact and I like the ability to tip back to let the sound reach your ears. Oh and the grill cloth sparkle at night when table lamp catches the light. Good job Laney

Great little amp, very portable, nice tone controls, clean sound thats plenty loud enough for the house, haven't tried the audio input or headphones wish id seen the 30 watt version before this though just for a bit more meat on the bones.

I took a chance on a "used like new" laney rb1 bass amp, as I have never purchased an item in this category before I wasn't sure what to expect.What a surprise, simply a damaged box with a tear along the side is why this amp was placed in this category. wrapped up inside in pristine packaging is a beautiful amp. Not a single Mark on the amp itself or instructions etc. And for a saving of £35 it's an absolute bargainFantastic deal and very surprised at the condition. Brand new with a minimum minor damaged box, fantastic amp great sound and an overall fantastic deal

This truly is a great little bass amp. Perfect for bass monitoring at rehearsals and gigs, where the balanced DI out can be fed direct to the PA.However one BIG disappointment - The product description on Amazon is incorrect, "and if your gig requires an additional cabinet then you can simply plug it into the extension speaker jack socket provided on the rear of the amp". There is NO socket for an extension speaker, therefore I can't this amp with my spare bass cab.In every other aspect it is a really good amp.
