I bought this Laney Klipp from an incredible tech in Poland named Bart
who runs a shop called Grube Brzmienie back in August. It sounds
absolutely HUGE, and for me it seems impossible to make it sound shrill,
even with a strat. Since I bought it from a tech, who knows the
Supergroups and Klipps quite well, he totally inspected it and fixed any
errors with it. It also had been recapped by the time it got to him to
fix up even more. Here is the original reverb listing so you can see
exactly what he did to it when serviced: https://reverb.com/…/2117927-laney-klipp-100-1974-serviced-…
. I played 5 or so shows with it cranked since receiving it in August
and never had a problem with it until January when it started blowing
the 1amp HT fuse when cranked. I emailed Bart about this and he told me
it must be due to the power tubes, as they did travel here all the way
from Poland. I have not tried replacing the power tubes with a new quad
and have been told one of the best modern tubes that can handle the
high plate voltage (600+ volts) of the supergroups/klipps are the JJ
E34Ls. Honestly this amp is so incredible but I just don't feel like
putting anymore money into this and I could use the money. have included two videos here so you know it IS working just
fine before cranked. One is from a while ago going from clean to full
jumped and cranked, until the fuse blows. The other one I just filmed
to show you that it is still working fine totally clean. I have
included some pics as well to show all the tubes are glowing fine and I
haven't changed anything in this amp since I got it from Bart. If you
look on the reverb link I attached you can see all the guts, original
partridge trannies, mustard caps, all the stuff you could possibly want
to preserve in this. Please get in touch, I have learned how this amp
behaves in all scenario's quite well! ALL WIRED UP TO RUN ON AMERICAN POWER
