The AOR Pro Tube Lead is an accidental doom amp. When first produced in the 80s they were pushed as hair metal amps. The problem was that the massive bass boost made the amp sound muddy. So a lot of players in the L.A. scene where I was duking it out would get their AORs modded to cut the bass boost and get more clarity. Modded AORs sounded insane, about as good as a Soldano.
I always feel they touch on a Marshall’ish/Soldano’ish tone. Not in this demo obviously. It does show the great clarity with the AOR dimed. Not channel switching, more of a preamp stacking switching amp.
All doom amps are accidental Doom amps. Nobody specifically designed Sunn, Matamp, Laney, ECT with doom in mind they just happened to be cheap and LOUD back in the 90s.
This is easily one of if not the best video on TH-cam covering these amps. I just found an AOR 50 combo that I snagged to balance against my Super Crush and this video has basically been my user manual. Thanks for doing such awesome work and helping the tone chasers out there.
Hi ! Could you tell me please the weight of the 50 combo ? It looks like a monster. I've seen one not too far, but I was hesitating between the supercrush !
@ it is an absolute back breaker. In the AOR 50 weighs about 10 pounds more than the Super Crush combo if you’re comparing one for one. In the time since this first post I sold the AOR and got a Frost Giant Architect of Realty preamp to run into the Super Crush for the Laney sound without the weight and repair concerns (the Laney needed to be in the shop A LOT). If you see one near you in good condition, I still say grab it. It’s an awesome amp, you just have to know it comes with extra concerns and be prepared for them.
The tone stack is perfect as is. I always found the best tone on the AOR was Bass and Mids pulled and set around 6, Treble not pulled and all the way up. Huge
I had the combo in the mid 1990's. It was my first tube amp and I ordered it from Daddy's Junky Music. They used to have a monthly newspaper mailer that had every used piece of gear that a broke highschool kid could lust after. I miss that amp. I bet my parents sold it at a garage sale for $20.
Just finished a pilgrimage to save one of these puppies and add it to the studio inventory thanks to this video and one other you’ve featured it in. THANK. YOU. What an absolute monster.
Really appreciate the way you formatted this demo. I've been getting back into guitar after taking a break for a few years and your videos/channel have definitely helped spark some inspiration to continue the sonic journey. Thank you man!
Hi Jason. I loved watching your old videos, when you just sat down and talked about something you have knowledge about and you love. After the Fet120 demo or so, I kind of forgot about the channel. I recently started watching your videos again. I have to say, your channel has come a long way! The videos are short and crisp, well structured and very informative, with a scientific approach. I think you are currently among the best pedal channels out there. And by the way, when manufacturers show that they have a clue about what they are talking about, are not only interested in their own products, but are simply a pedal lover like all of us, that's the best advertising you can do.I'm afraid this is a very long comment, but I want to express my respect and appreciation for the time and effort you put in here. I look forward to new quality conntent!
I had the aor 50 back in the 80s...it was my first "real" amp. It broke in the early 90s and was told it couldnt be fixed, so i sold it with the cabinet for 200$. I found an aor 100 yesterday for 300$ not working so i bought it. The impedance selector switch was dirty is all. It is an absolute beast... I think it may sound better than my 50 did! Doom for days!
Love that Monolord riff!! Great video man! Listened to your podcast a bunch on my move cross country this past weekend, hope to hear more in the future.
Definitely a diamond in the rough. Very glad I grabbed on about 6 months ago. One of my favorite amps I’ve ever owned. So many tonal options. Grab one if you can.
I've had a few Laney AOR Pro-Tube Lead 50s over the decades - first one in the early 90s. It was the original "Marshall killer" for metal players and the pull boosts were pretty much always on. Great amps - they were fairly reliable and great-sounding for the price, when you think about comparing it to other 80s amps (JCM 800, Mesa, Seymour Duncan Convertible, etc). This and the Dennis Kager Sundown are still hidden gems from that era.
Thanks for this review !! This amp is a killer !! Awsome heavy jams for demo too !! This sound is awsome for those heavy licks indeed !!! Well played !!!
@@FuzzlordEffects yeah, clean and overdrive both sound amazing! Anything from pristine clean to high gain and the eq has massive variation. Only started using it cos my thunderverb 200 conked out, but think im now gonna stick with the laney!
Love these style of videos, great work! Grabbed an AOR 50 off reverb last year. Only regret is not grabbing one with an FX loop. But I couldn't be happier otherwise.
Are you sure it didn't have an fx loop. I thought the same thing. I have an AOR 50 from 1985 , the fx loop is not labeled fx loop its labeled differently. It does say line in and out by its not labeled as fx loop.
@@617shakes I’ve seen pictures with some amps labeled with effects loop and they also have a dedicated line out jack. Mine is just labeled line in and line out. Maybe someone else can verify whether this works the same as a traditional effects send and return.
@@MrJcc0033 I emailed Laney directly to find out before plugging anything into it. The confirmed that the line in and out is the fx loop (even though it's not labeled that) mine is labeled +8dBV ( I have a 1985 AOR 50 pro tube lead ) hope this helps.
I'm a bassist but happen to own this amp along with a couple other guitar amps. I honestly think it's really awesome. I can obviously do the stoner/sleep tone really well. But it can do so much. Love it.
I had the opportunity one time to buy one for 250 euros and I didn't ... One of the things I regret the most on the world of guitar ... Cheers from Portugal
Just bought an AOR100 Series II 8 knob mostly due to this video and the fact that it was used on sleeps holy mountain, my first tube amp, I have owned some expensive solid state amps before but this thing is something else, thank u for the reccomendation!

I got an AOR about 7 years ago, it was my first tube amp and it's my absolute favorite amp. I like running the gain down a bit and boosting it with a rat. All tone knobs maxed, presence dialed in for the room/band/mix/whatever
The AOR is terrific, but sadly, I’ve never played through one. The push-pull pots on the tone stack are awesome; really killer feature! Cool demo, Jason! Cheers!
I just found one of these in the 50w variety for $20 on facebook from someone who inherited it and knows nothing about it or whether it works. Literally researching it now as I am unfamiliar with Laney. Fingers crossed that it works when I get it home to test!
Picked up a working mid-1980's Pro Tube Lead 50 head a few months ago at an auction in, of all places, a small town on the Indiana/Illinois border. Paid only $100 for it! Run through two Orange 2 x 12 cabinets, it's LOUD. Unbelievable.
Very cool video! I was also able to get one a week ago. The amp is really very cool! Not only for doom he is excellent, also for heavy metal in the style of the 80s he makes a very good figure. I currently use it together with the Jbl's in my Twin, so I use the Twin as a Cab. This is pretty awesome! Cheers and Fuzz Ahoy!
One of my biggest regrets is selling my Laney AOR 100. It was so incredibly loud it rattled the earth. Could never get a grasp on the microphonics issue though, always had a radio signal coming through even after taking it to get serviced. That along with the fact that it basically needs to be cranked to get good tones led to me selling it for a Fender PA-100 and 2x15 bassman cab. Love my amp now but there's nothing quite like that cranked tube driven rumble.
The new forms of metal has not garnered my interest, and I am a child of thrash so with no more new metal to explore I decided to go backwards and delve into doom as Sabbath was my very first influence. Exploring bands like old CoC, Sleep, St. Vitus, Candlemass, etc. This video is why I bought an AOR (modded by Blackhawk amps) as my KSR didn;t really work. Thanks for the videos, they're really helpful.
first off, i love spectrum analysis. SEEING really helps me understand whats going on. But I'm curious, what would be the drawbacks of the amp having a flat EQ? Is there a reason you wouldnt want that?
Historically guitar amps tend to sound best if they have a bit of a defined eq curve, whether slightly mid scooped for cleans like Fender or slightly mid boosted like... almost every other amp.

(panning: IRT is on the left, AOR on the right) : th-cam.com/video/IS14DrdM-Co/w-d-xo.html
I love my Laney. Is there a way to go from insane boost to the clean channel? Even though I enjoy waking the dead, sometimes I want to get a nice clean tone. 😈
I used to own the AOR 30 6 knob and two AOR 100 8 knobers. However, I heavily modded them to be tighter, more articulated and have more usable gain so that I could use them for thrash and death metal. Those amps have a rediculus amount of gain stages available to make them do just about anything... I definitely regret selling them.
Well, I have the Frost Giant Electronics AOR pedal. Don't know if this counts, but I like the sound of it both in front of the amp and in the return used as a preamp. Stacking other pedals in front of it when it's in the return makes it sound even doomier depending on what I'm going after.
You running the bass through that at 9:06? Are they any good for that? I play baritone and bass, I might pick a 100w one up for pretty cheap soon and if it could handle both it would make life super easy. Cheers!
Besides a Orange Rockerverb 100 MarkIII and a modded JCM800 2203 I have a Laney AOR 50 Series II ... now I need a Fuzzlord FU-2 :-) ... can they be shipped to Germany?
MY 100 WATT AOR DOES BLACK SABBATH BETTER THAN MY PEXI'S. IT HAS THAT UNIQUE MID RANGE THAT A PLEXI CAN'T GET. IT SOUNDS KILLER FOR ALL STYLES OF ROCK AND BLUES.

Hey boss, I need your help!!! Best replacement tube for these? We need "best tubes for doom" episode. I just bought this from your recommendation but it needed substantial work at the repair shop. Now nervous and wanting to replace the tubes as well and could use some opinions. Would be willing to offer the head as the testing platform.
I had one of these and personally had a hard time getting a sound I liked from it, idk if mine was broken or something but I could never get it really distorted nicely.
any suggestions for a doom amp for home use at a small apartment (low volume)? the AOR 30 looks sick, but I feel like it's prob just too loud. I have a girlfriend and a 3-year-old lol. I really appreciate your videos man, thank you, I'm really looking forward to seeing what you suggest!

I really appreciate your videos man, thank you, I'm really looking forward to seeing what you suggest! I currently have an Orange Crush 35RT with a Celestion G10 Vintage but feel like it's time to upgrade.
I have an AOR 30, perfectly fine for home use 🎸🤘🏻
Anyone any experience with the PL50? Doom-able as well?
Why only 2 powertubes inside. Is There a reason?
looks like they used same chassis for 50w and 100w models, this is a AOR50
@@FuzzlordEffects oh ok. I have the 100 watt version and since they look the same. I though you put 2 tubes out for some reason.
Laney amps The great Tony Iommi used in the mighty Black Sabbath.
How’s the 30?
Awesome, might sound a little bit different as it uses two 6V6 tubes.
Laney + Black Sabbath = Sludge, Doom, Heavy and Stoner Metal.
Man I hate that I got rid of mine
They are so expensive now. Mine was picked up way back when it was considered a crappy amp and was at a pawn shop. $200 with the cab included
Sonolith uses an AOR 100 ... OOF \m/\m/

Hell yeah!
I know this sounds wild, but if you crank a matamp gt120, it sounds just like that.
Gonna disagree on that one after making a demo on the channel previously haha 👍
Great demo
