LANEY MINISTAK-B-LION AMP With Bluetooth LionHeart
The MINISTAK-B-LION is a compact, battery-powered amplifier engineered for home studios, mobile recording sessions, and producers who need serious tone in a portable format. Its lightweight 2.6 kg chassis and modest footprint integrate seamlessly into any studio environment without sacrificing the dual-channel character that defines Laney's LionHeart platform. Built-in Bluetooth connectivity adds modern flexibility for backing track playback and reference monitoring alongside straightforward, hands-on control.
Studio Integration & Mobility
Measuring 295 x 205 x 105 mm and weighing just 2.6 kg, this amp fits easily into session spaces and portable recording rigs. The battery-powered design using 6 x AA batteries eliminates dependence on AC outlets during location recording, while the optional MINI-LANEY-PSU power supply provides stable operation at the desktop or in the control room. Every dimension and weight specification supports engineers and producers who work across multiple spaces.
Recording Tone & Session Connectivity
The 2 x 3W stereo output drives four 3" full-range speakers, delivering clarity and articulation that captures detail at moderate levels—essential for tracking and monitoring without excessive headroom demands. Dual channels—Clean and Drive—provide tonal range from transparent to saturated within a single take, while the integrated Delay effect with independent level control adds spatial dimension for layering and arrangement work. Bluetooth streaming enables playback of click tracks, reference mixes, or guide vocals directly through the amp during sessions, and multiple input options—1/4" instrument input, 1/8" aux input, and LSI (Laney Smart Interface) socket—accommodate guitars, basses, keyboards, and external devices with equal flexibility.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use this amp for gigging, or is it strictly for practice?
The Ministak-B-Lion works well for rehearsals, small venues, busking, and travel—anywhere that doesn't demand high-volume live performance at large venues. Its 2x3W stereo output and portable form factor make it a genuine gigging amp for intimate settings; it's not designed to compete with full-size touring rigs.
What's included in the box, and do I need to buy a power supply separately?
The amp runs on 6 x AA batteries out of the box, giving you instant mobility. The optional MINI-LANEY-PSU external power supply is sold separately if you want AC stability during stationary use or longer sessions.
Does it have effects beyond the delay, and can I adjust them independently?
The Ministak-B-Lion features a Delay effect with an independent Level control for shaping how much effect sits in your tone. There are no other built-in effects; the amp focuses on dual-channel character (Clean and Drive) and straightforward hands-on controls.
What instruments and input options does it support?
The amp accommodates guitars, basses, keyboards, and external devices via a 1/4-inch instrument input, 1/8-inch aux input, and LSI (Laney Smart Interface) socket. It also features a 1/8-inch headphones output and Bluetooth for streaming backing tracks or reference material directly through the amp.
How does the Ministak-B-Lion compare to the Roland Micro Cube GX or Orange Crush Mini?
The Ministak-B-Lion stands out for its LionHeart dual-channel platform (Clean and Drive), integrated Delay with independent level control, and Bluetooth connectivity. It's battery-powered like its competitors and sits in the same portable combo category, but emphasizes Laney's tonal character and straightforward, hands-on control philosophy.
