I've been playing the amp game for a while and not finding the one, mostly because I have champagne taste and lemonade money! The Lionheart had been on my hit list for a good while but they seldom come up used and new they are out of budget, that was until I spotted this one on Reverb and the very nice owner accepted my (slightly cheeky) offer.
It sounds exactly as i'd hoped, crystal clean if you want it and plenty enough crunchy old fashioned rocker gain if you don't. The spring reverb is also a nice touch. What with buying this and a vintage Tele over lockdown I'd better lock myself in a dark room to avoid any further GAS!...... I'll just check the classifieds before I go!

For the record an early OCD pedal was all the drive I used and to my ears it sounded great.
Just to check I’m not doing anything silly. The 2 button foot switch operates the drive channel but not the reverb, there doesn’t appear to be an isolation switch for the reverb and I’ve checked with a multimeter that’s the switch is working. Probably the jack socket at fault but is there anything else you can think of?

Lowering my expectations has succeeded beyond my wildest dreams.
