• This baby Rocks

  
  As reviewed by Johnny Black on 2/16/2011

  I can't go into all kinds of technical descriptions about lows, mids, and highs but, I can tell you, that after having tried out everything out there in the 30 to 50 watt range, this amp was the hands down winner. It is very simple to use however, when you turn a knob, you actually hear a difference in what comes out. You don't need a lot of knobs to get different tones. The shape and gain knobs, give you a ton of control over tones. You might say that it gives you infinate control over the tone. As for power, I tried it out at the 7 watt setting with the volume turned up to about 11. My son comes running downstairs and asks if I can turn the volume down because the "house is shaking." With the class A design, this thing is a beast and is plenty loud enough for most gigging locations! Beyond that, it just sounds great! My other amps sound like toys in comparison . The crunch on this thing is awesome and the clean channel is pristine! I would have liked to get a reverb on it but, it wouldn't have stopped me from buying it much less, recommending it to someone. If you buy this amp, I am sure you will be happy

• Small amp, big sound, great tone

  
  As reviewed by Matthew Walton on 11/14/2011

  This amp is a revelation! When it arrived, I thought, "Hmmm, looks kind of dinky. Maybe too small to be anything other than a practice amp?" Well, just fire one of these amps up and you'll hear that this is no toy combo! The "clean" channel has a wonderful, warm tone that's just so easy on the ears, and breaks up very nicely when pushed. The "dirty" channel takes a less-is-more approach - just an extremely responsive Shape control for overall tone, Volume and Gain, which goes from Brit-style crunchy to ferocious. As with any amp, you have to experiment for a while to find *your* sound, but it didn't take too long for me to dial in a super-rich, big crunch sound that also gives up singing leads. There's no reverb, true, but the provided effects loop gives you flexibility in that department. The Celestion speaker in this combo is fantastic. It adds to the thickness and warmth of the sound. It's light enough for easy transportation to gigs, yet is very solidly built. No squeaks or rattles from this amp. Easily loud enough for rehearsals and smaller gigs. Extremely happy with this purchase!

• Huge tone in a small package

  
  As reviewed by JoeyG on 7/18/2011

  Amazing cleans and dirt with attitude.The sustain, punch and overall warmth of this amp is awesome! So simple to use and very easy to get great tones with. The shape knob is ultra responsive and changes the tone with very little movement.Orange hit a home run with this little beast for sure! The video clips online do not do this amp justice.Play one in person and you will have to have one.
