Another Brick in the Wall pt.2 amp settings — Laney Lionheart foundry lf60-112

The Pink Floyd guitar tone for “Another Brick in the Wall pt.2”, dialed in for a Laney Lionheart foundry lf60-112 with a Dnd Lightfoot IB series. Studio version, The Wall (1979) — iconic guitar solo

Original rig

1955 Gibson Les Paul Goldtop (P-90 pickups, neck pickup) straight into mixing console via DI and reamped through a Hiwatt DR103 / Mesa Boogie, compressed with studio optical compression and MXR digital delay

Clean-yet-compressed, singing edge-of-breakup lead tone with punchy low-mids and snappy single-coil attack

Why these settings

The LF60-112 is voiced around the British boutique Lionheart circuit, so Channel 2 dialed low gives the warm edge-of-breakup response Gilmour got from reamping the direct desk signal. Because your D&D Lightfoot has standard single coils rather than high-output vintage P-90s, keep the mids pushed to 7 and roll tone back slightly to round off top-end spank. For the rhythm funk comping during the verses, flip to Channel 1 clean and select the bridge+middle pickup position.

PRO TIPGilmour tracked the solo directly into the mixing board with heavy studio compression for extreme clarity before reamping; dig in hard with the edge of a heavy pick right near the neck pickup for that distinct percussive 'snap' on the attack.
