    Got the OB1 500. Amazing amp. The clean is tight and punchy and the distortion ranges from subtle to ferocious. The only issue i have is something that was picked up on in the video - the further you dial the blend, the louder the overall volume gets. This means that if you want to punch in the drive halfway through a song (during a guitar solo, for example) then you either have a noticeable volume boost that drowns out the rest of the band or you have to keep the "blend" control on so low that you can't really hear the drive. It's not necessarily a problem if you want to play the entire song with distortion on it ( Ace of Spades, for example) - you simply dial down the main volume control to compensate (although even this can be a bit hit and miss)- but it's a real pain if you just want to punch it in during certain sections. This issue could be easily avoided if Orange had included some sort of Drive level control, so that you could dime the blend AND the distortion amount to get the optimum sound but then bring the overall level into line with your clean sound. Maybe for the OB1 mk 2?

    That has the best overdrive/fuzz of any of the amps reviewed so far, sounds really usable rather than just an afterthought.

    A word on isobaric, for those interested. The two speakers are arranged either like a clamshell or in tandem (one behind the other). The pair are then used as you would a single speaker - but with effectively double the cone mass.
    This means you can get exactly the same bass response from a cabinet half the size. Hence the powerful bass from a small cabinet. The ported design further improves low bass power output compared with a sealed (or open-back) box.

    • @Uygkuyfkutfkytfkutfv
      @Uygkuyfkutfkytfkutfv 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Surely two drivers in tandem can’t pressurise in the same way two independent ones could?

    • @dogsbodyish8403
      @dogsbodyish8403 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@Uygkuyfkutfkytfkutfv You could put the 2 drivers side by side in a box twice as big, and you'd get the same frequency response - and it would gain 6dB in loudness. But the box would be twice as big. Small boxes and loud, low bass are uneasy bedfellows...

    I had the chance to play an Orange Crush bass 100 combo amp and before had been set on buying a new hartke rig. it COMPLETELY changed my mind. I just fell in love with that amazing creamy tone that the Orange heads and amps achieve. he true bonus of this vid is getting to see Lee look incredibly uncomfortable playing the drum machine. lmao great vid, Guys. Thanks for the overview, especially on the isobaric bass cab.

  • @jeremyhyrkas9541
    @jeremyhyrkas9541 8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    my understanding is that the gain section only affects the mids and trebles of the signal, so you never get any low-end flub. that's probably why the sound is more instantly usable :)

    It is Soo nice to actually find, especially an Orange amp that really does sound like some Entwistle bi amping and is not completely fuzzed out like the usual Orange amps! I never like Orange until now. To have a clean bass and to THEN ADD some higher end on top is so Old School and is fantastic! Thanks so much! I actually got a power head 2 channel and was going to put it through FX - 1 Alembic to split, but now that I have the Orange OB1 300 I'm thinking maybe I have enough of that sound??? Thanks guy! Great bass player too... just hate all fuzz and I think he does too... ha ha...

    Orange should be charged for the publicity of that intro,I've had this bass bouncing around my head about getting one, the orange finish made it look cheap,now I see theres a burst or a black finish I'm sold,it sounded awesome , the symbols on the amps look cool too

  • @paniccleo
    @paniccleo 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    For budget basses they really nailed it. I'm not a fan of P Bass pickups, yet they managed to make them sound great in this bass. I also give them props for trying out an original look that managed to not be ugly.

    I'll add my vote to the blindfold Fender bass challenge. I also have noticed Nathan favors the Dimension for recent reviews, maybe that's a neck profile or just a humbucker thing, so I would love to see a comparison between those and some similar Music Mans perhaps.

    Speaking of Royal Blood, if you want something a little more metal-y but still bass driven (I think they had a guitarist on their previous album though) Big Business is worth checking out they're a bass and drums + vocals only band with the occasional keys and guitar thrown in
