Boasting two fierce channels of Ironheart-inspired tones, the Ironheart Foundry Dualrig pairs Laney’s 60-watt Dualtop amplifier head with a custom-made 2 x 12-inch cabinet. Each of this amp’s channels ? a shimmering Clean channel and a dirt-laden Lead channel ? sports a 3-way voicing switch to instantly switch up your EQ on the fly, further aided by a global 3-band EQ. Next, the onboard Boost fires up your tone with an extra helping of heat, while the digital reverb circuit imparts lush space and a lively presence to your playing. Tonally, the Dualrig is a remarkably well-rounded amp. However, its utility features truly push it over the edge as a studio and practice tool, including an IR cab-simulated XLR DI out, transformer-isolated FX loop, variable wattage control, aux in, headphone jack, and much more. Whether you’re looking to storm the stage or pick out the new centerpiece of your recording rig, Laney’s Dualrig head is a sure bet.

Tube Amp vs Solid State -?What's the Difference?


Kick into overdrive with a high-power Boost control





Perfect for turning up the heat during a solo or imparting extra punch to your licks, the Dualrig’s built-in Boost section is a potent sonic tool. Moreover, you can activate the Boost by flipping the switch on the front panel or with a footswitch for hands-free dynamic shifts up onstage. And while this amp/cab combo’s brutal boost naturally results in screaming room-shaking Laney tones, Sweetwater guitarists love how the onboard wattage selector allows you to transform the Dualrig’s 60-watt roar into a bedroom-appropriate volume!





From the stage to the studio to the practice room





The Dualrig is designed for maximum efficiency and simplicity, but this straightforward little amp packs quite a bit of utility under the hood. For players running a plethora of effects pedals, the transformer-isolated effects loop is a godsend, allowing you to integrate all your reverb, time-based, and modulation pedals cleanly and with minimal noise. Furthermore, the Dualrig is also remarkably well-suited to the practice room, sporting a cabinet-emulated 1/8-inch headphone out and aux in ? perfect for silent practice sessions and jamming along to your favorite tracks. An XLR DI out with stunningly realistic IR cab simulation tops the Dualrig off, allowing you to achieve studio-grade guitar tracks at home without the help of a microphone.





Laney amps: stunning since ’67





The journey of Laney Amplification harkens all the way back to 1967. Lyndon Laney left behind the British group Band of Joy (and members John Bonham and Robert Plant) to venture into the expanding realms of amplifier building. From Lyndon’s family garage to stacking huge stages at the disposal of some of history’s greatest groups like Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, and Kiss, Laney and its legacy of high-quality amp engineering has found tremendous worldwide acclaim for decades. With a long list of sound systems and characterful heads, cabinets, combos, and pedals for guitar, bass, keyboards, and more, Laney offers a stunning lineup of top-tier products with an enviably versatile appeal.
