INTRODUCTION

The Dark Art: 

In an age where guitar players have developed an unhealthy fascination with pre-amp distortion, the fabled sound of a tube 

power amp being pushed hard has almost passed into history.  Until now that is!

The L20H’s hand wired 20W Class A Single Ended output stage oozes classic, warm tube tones:  The harder you drive it, the better it 
sounds.  Plus with enough gain for contemporary tones, it also has a mean, spiteful side to it as well – making it ideal for any style of playing.  
Perfect for studio and practice use, but also equally at home or on stage plugged into a Laney LT-212 cabinet, the sound will blow you away.  
The L20H can be secured to the LT-212 Cabinet using the optional fitting kit.

Every Lionheart product is extensively play tested by experienced guitarists before being shipped to our customers. Only when the unit is 
finished to our complete satisfaction is it assigned its own unique build number which is then hand stamped onto the rear mounted plaque.

Your L20H’s should give you years of trouble-free amplification, however please take time to read this manual and familiarise yourself with 
the controls as it will allow you to get the best from your amplifier. We hope you enjoy using your L20H’s as much as we enjoyed designing 
and making it. 

Best wishes from all at Laney

                  OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Laney products have a heritage which stretches back to 1967 when I first began 
building valve amplifiers in my parent’s garage. Since then we have moved on from 
strength to strength developing an extensive range of guitar, bass, public address 
and keyboard amplification products along with a list of Laney endorsees that 
includes some of the world’s most famous and respected musicians.  At the same 
time we believe we have not lost sight of the reason Laney was founded in the first 
place - a dedication to building great sounding amplification for working musicians. 

Warm Regards, 

                          Lyndon Laney   CEO

of enjoyment.
