Product description
We always have a sizable collection of the amazing Van Laeck amps in our shop in! Contact us for
more information, prices or visit us in Boekel!!
Van Laeck amps are loosely based on the legendary Dumble amps, but with quite some twists. All of
their amps have some of that Dumble magic to them. Cleans that sound like you’re on the lead
channel, big bold but refined low end, complex harmonics, soaring overdrive and off course the looks. It’s all there! Van Laeck amps are fully designed and proudly hand built in The Netherlands, using only the finest components available.
The Van Laeck King Leo is the blackface amp you always wanted! I bet you already know the famous blackface sound. Big, bold, clean, bright and scooped! But there is more, the King Leo also has the Dumble’s famous FET circuit to clean boost the amp. This amp is sweet and clean when you want but can roar and growl when it needs to!
King Leo is also fully customizable. Want 6L6 power tubes, or even KT66? Van Laeck Custom Guitar Amplifiers can do that. Your favorite shade of suede? Just ask us! Pricing and lead times for custom options on request.
And then there’s this: the Van Laeck King Leo T, supercharged blackface in a neat little
package. It is bold, it is warm, it is lush. It’s the ultimate mix between Dumble ideas and a blackface Vibroverb. This little beast of an amp features a Dumble-ized preamp, a completely redesigned reverb circuit, bias wiggle tremolo and is topped off with Dumble’s famous FET circuit to clean boost the amp. This amp is sweet and clean when you want but can roar and growl when it needs to!
Want some slow and smooth vintage sounding tremolo? The bias wiggle tremolo is what you need. It is a completely different animal than opto tremolo, giving an amazing depth and character to the
tremolo. The King Leo T has a variant of the famous Vibroverb tremolo. The reverb is derived directly
from Dumble’s Steel String Singer amps. Less surf than a blackface Fender and much more complex
sounding. The King Leo T is about 15 Watts and this one comes with a Celestion G12 65 speaker. The King Leo T comes standard with JJ 2x6V6 power tubes and a 5y3gt tube rectifier. There are switches for FET boost, bright, mid and preamp boost and tremolo on/off. Available in a lightweight combo or head and 1x12 cab.
And Yes this King Leo T is also fully customizable. Want 6L6 power tubes, or even KT66? Van Laeck Custom Guitar Amlification can do that. Your favourite shade of suede? Just aks us! Pricing and lead times for custom options on request.
