I'm considering adding a 1x12 cab. Of course first I have to buy the 1x12 LSC :-). My band has 8 pieces and is fairly (not extremely) loud. Today I use a 40-watt 2x12 Fender Pro Reverb. I just can't deal withthe 15 pound difference it would be to go with the 2x12 LSC.
Sabu,
Did you use the ext cab also? WHat type of playing situation was it? Did you use the POD XTL also? I'm actually getting one of those also, but mostly for home recording. Would love to hear about your experience.
Thanks,
Dennis
Man I am so close I can almost taste a new LSC. Had a "big" birthday, got lots of cash and I'm ready to make a move. I liked the comment that the 1x12 seemed to scream more. I like the fact that it's 15 lbs lighter than the 2x12 also.
You THINK???? Let's see the Twin has two options: turn it up or turn it down. The LSC has two channels,which can be independently set for 100 or 50 watts. each with a boost and channel two has the option of an exra gain stage. Not to mention the choice of two reverbs with individual controls...
I'm in a similar situation, except that the weight is what I'm concerned about. We're talking a 15 lb difference here (60 lbs for the 1x12, 75 lbs for the 2x12).
I played a 2x12 the other night and it was great. The store also happened to have a 1x12 cabinet, so I unplugged the internal...
Thanks for the responses.
I'd like to get the 1x12. Currently I use a blackface Fender Pro Reverb. It's only 40 watts, but the two 12's move a lot of air.
From what I'm hearing the 100 watts should easily make up for it.
Anyone gigging with the LSC?
Do you have the 1x12 or 2x12? What do you think of it?
I'd like to keep the weight down, so I'm thinking of gettng the 1x12.
Thanks,
Dennis
Like I said, the Output and Solo controls give you two seperate settings for the same function which enables the boost.
You can try an experiment: set them at the same level and engage the boost. The sound should be unchanged.
Think of the Output and Solo controls as two settings for the same thing: overall volume of the amp. Normally the Output controls this, when you hit the boost on the footswitch you are at the level set by the Solo control.
For my third post today, I'll say that the LSC is like a Twin on steroids. :-)
"Clean Headroom" is subjective in that it means I can be as loud as I need to be and still stay clean.
