OUR MATCHLESS LAUREL CANYON, NOW IN YOUR LINE 6 HARDWARE

For this preset, we tone-matched the AC15 amp model in the HX hardware to our Matchless Laurel Canyon. The result is an impulse response that completely transforms the HX amp model – it sounds exactly like our amp, and the microphones, preamps, and EQ chains that we use to record it.

The Laurel Canyon is the first 6v6 amp from Matchless. You could think of it as Matchless’s take on a Princeton or Deluxe, but with a very ‘Matchless’ top end (read: chime and clarity).
