Laney VC30 (Pre-2008) - Clean preset

Verified · 84/100 confidence. Complete schematic. All component values readable. Parameters derived directly from the circuit.

The Laney VC30 is a 30-watt all-tube combo from the mid-1990s, Laney's take on the chimey British EL84 combo; this page covers the original pre-2008 circuit. Hi and Lo inputs feed an ECC83 stage and a shared treble, middle and bass stack, then a relay picks a Clean channel with Clean Volume and Bright, or a Drive channel with Drive and Drive Volume. An op-amp loop and reverb feed four cathode-biased EL84s.

• Wattage: 30W
• Channels: 2
• Preamp tubes: 3× ECC83
• Power tubes: 4× EL84

Schematic-derived preset files for 16 Fractal and Line 6 modelers: Axe-Fx II/XL/XL+, Axe-Fx III, FM3, FM9, and the full Helix family (Floor, LT, Rack, HX Stomp, HX Stomp XL, Native).

Gridleak extracts amp parameters from original circuit schematics using AI vision — component values, gain staging, tone stack topology, tube types — then generates native preset files for every supported modeler. Every extraction is scored 0–100 and the score is published.
