What else would you like to know about the Orange Crush 20?
Comment on its effectiveness for acoustic guitars, please?
I'm sold. Thank you for this review, good sir.
Thanks for posting this. I went local guitar shop and purchased based on your clean tone review if it. Very happy with it so far. Thanks
Fantastic! Also, I have a new video launching today about this amp (as well as an exclusive video available for FREE through my newsletter). Thank you for watching and commenting!
Thanks, I’ve owned for several months and never really understood the knobs. I played while watching your video and I was 😮, that makes sense. I also have the foot pedal, so much better while playing/learning. I agree with all of your comments. As a beginner, I don’t need all the effects, just clean and dirty. Once I get better, I will get peddles.
Thank you! I just bought it
Its a great video! I enjoyed whatching it!
I bought this amp due to a video you posted on 2020. It’s working great so far. I’d definitely recomend!
I am glad that it has worked out well for you! Are there any other observations you would add?
Thank you for watching and commenting!
@@5MinuteMusic One observation is that there is no reverb dial, which a lot of amps have. This has not affected me, but it is something to keep in mind. I use a distortion pedal, so my amp is kept on the 'clean' tone, however you can get some real good crunch
greetings friend from Colombia yesterday I asked for it I am waiting for it to arrive thanks for your advice incredible your channel
I found one second hand locally for $100 with a boss distortion pedal
Wow! 😃
Bought one for my daughter with a distorsion pedal...
I don't know how all this work...
Where to plug the pedal, behind it?

I have the 35RT. Loving it!
Not only are these videos informative but they’re entertaining as well
Thank you for watching and commenting!
I have just got one it is a great amp for a beginner like me it has a great sound very happy with the sound
i bought one along with a crush bass 50 for $275 and i’m absolutely loving both of em
Everything in the current Orange lineup is a beast. They're also make a good pedal platform. I just recently started playing again and will probably pick up a Crush 35RT.
Complete ToDefeat: good choice, the Orange Crush 20 is pretty good, but i don't think it's that much of an upgrade over the Orange 12. however upgrading from an Orange Crush 12 to the Crush 35RT is a much better investment.
sure you do pay a little more, but I've seen the Orange Crush 35RT for $199.
that's actually a pretty good deal, and the best thing about is, you get a 8 inch speaker instead of 6. so you don't have to turn the volume up to hear it,
you can actually keep the volume low at night and you'd still be able to hear it.
the Orange Crush 12 for example, you can't really hear anything when you have the volume low, it drowns out the sound for whatever reason.
I got the 20 and now I'm wanting the 35
Playing mine thru a 12 in texas heat in a separate cab. Sounds amazing for a cheap practice amp.
Got the 35rt totally blown away
I just ordered this amp yesterday. Was glad to hear it’s still as good. ETA less than 24hrs 🤞
Awesome! I have a new video launching today about this amp (as well as an exclusive video available for FREE through my newsletter).
Thank you for watching and commenting!
Can you also use it with a bass at low volumes?
What I'm wondering about is how it stacks up against the Crush 35(rt) which is what I liked but is too loud for home use.
I play through my Orange Super Crush 100 half stack as my gigging and recording amp. I'm 52 and the weight and the hastle of moving that rig all over is a pain. Of course to gigs or to the studio is a must, but when not gigging I could leave it at the studio for recording and band practice if I had something similar to jam through at home. This or the 35w version would do nicely. I play metal, Thrash and some stoner metal. Orange amps make that happen. I think I'll go try one out. Great vid.
The cr60 is perfect for home and studio use. I'm 45 and I also play metal! (thrash, doom, etc) I have it paired with a matching ppc112 cab and it's way more than I'll need. No more monster 4x12 cabs for me. Cheers!
Keep the half stack and get a smaller amp for recording
Used Boss Katana 50 MK2 is a good value. The amp sounds good the way it comes, but it includes a huge number of Boss effects and options with the tone studio program (even some rare ambient effects). Plus can record into an interface or directly into a computer using the USB. Gives you everything you need in one package.
How dows it take pedals on the clean channel.. for overdrives etc
oh, man, that's the key to a good amp review, i mean, to pick a fender guitar.....there's a model with built in reverb which seems no to sound bad at all, a bit more expensive.....i'm between the vox pathfinder ten and this orange (with the reverb,,,or not)...already got the fender champion 40 wich is great, but i'm lookin for a bedroom amp with a different taste (i mostly play fender tubes amps)...i'm lookin' for a little amp with dirty tones (far away from the marshall sound) but i want it with tasteful clean tones....maybe i buy both (pathfinder and orange) and try not to feel guilty....thanx 4 this review, greetings from South QLD Australia
I had a marshall 50watt. Is this loud enough to satiate when I want to play loud? I actually never even used the marshall at half volume because it was beefy, but I need a new amp
Can this be added to this speaker Orange Micro Terror 20-Watt Head
Is this good for a Acustic Electric Guitar?
Im trynna learn pizza angel from veggie tales so im looking for that sound and this ones sounds like the right one. I was hoping to get more opinions on multiple other amps?
Hi , can you tell me , can one play a memory stick through it by merely inserting one into the USB port
Great information! I've been thinking about getting something like this to use in my basement. Seriously, you need at least one amp on every floor of the house, right? It might be time to add something like this and begin tinkering with various effects pedals. Thanks!
An amp on every floor sounds good to me! Thank you for watching and commenting!
What pedals do you want to try with this amp?
@@5MinuteMusic Since I am still early in my guitar playing adventure, I have no idea. I currently own a Champion 40, so I'd probably look at pedals that offer similar capabilities.
@@stevestalock3200 Ok! Also, have you seen any of my videos about the Champion 40? You might find them useful.
@@5MinuteMusic Yep! Very helpful!
Holy...What a beauty guitar
Thank you so much! And thank you for watching too!
Hey buddy.... i play on an acoustic...is this amp suitable for it?
I am having a hard time picking between the Orange Crush 12 and the Orange Crush 20? Argh I need a room plus recording amp.
Got it used for $80 and couldn't be happier 🥰
G'day from Australia, I love your reviews. It would be great to see you branch out a little more I think, possible take up the Blackstar ID core 20 or VOX VT20X also. In saying that I like your reviews on the current amps you demo
Can this amp handle grunge/rock without the sound going muddy, I’ve got a boss mega distortion pedal and would like to use that along side
i need to know too
Clean sounds superb on this amp.. 😅
Distortion sounds cool too..
It handles pedals too! Check out this demo we just did: th-cam.com/video/QpSCDNUKdXU/w-d-xo.html
So I'm looking to upgrade from my Blackstar Fly3 just now. Debating between this, the Orange Micro Dark (paired with an PPC108), and a Marshall DSL1CR. Money is not an issue, but space is. Whatever I get has to fit in a 40x40cm space horizontally. Only thing I care about is a good high-gain thrash/death metal tone and passable cleans, without getting too loud. Will be pairing it up with an Ibanez TS9, which I already own.
The Orange Micro sounds really cool, and I have heard that the Micro Dark has even more gain! I don't know anything about the Marshall DSL1CR though. Please let me know if you get one and what you think about it! Thank you for watching and commenting!
@@5MinuteMusic First of all, love your channel and your contribution to the guitar & amp enthusiast community.
That out of the way, how do the 8” speakers I’m looking at sound compared to 10” or 12” ones? I’ve heard some bad stuff about
Because like, I don’t want to spend 2-5x the amount of my Fly3 for the same non-existent bass and cracky mids, to be run at the same volume lmao
@@rejiix You would have to try different speakers out for yourself. That is the advantage to having a head: you can pair it with many different kinds of speakers.
The best setup I have ever run was a 4x10 cabinet with a 1x15 hooked up to it (the sound was punchy, focused, and warm!) I also have run a 2x12 with two Eminence Legend speakers and they sounded great!
That being said, if you go with a 1x8 cabinet, see if you can find a Jensen speaker (they have a wide selection) that you can test out before you buy it. You can hear some samples of a Jensen MOD 8-20 here: www.jensentone.com/mod-series/mod-8-20
I want to get an 8" Jensen to put in my smaller amps to hear the difference.
1 good sound is better than 100 crappy ones. It seems these amps are good at being what they are (and way better than 15w transistor amps from when i started 25 years ago).
Can these Amos handle a loop pedal for practicing lead
Here is a video where we demo pedals with this amp: th-cam.com/video/QpSCDNUKdXU/w-d-xo.html
We did not use a loop pedal, but we did stack a lot of OD pedals! I hope it is helpful!
Id buy this if they included a footswitch with the amp because its useless without it in my opinion. They also need to fix the loud clicking issues they have with their footswitch and the buzzing on the gain channel when not playing anything. Also, the 20rt should have a send/return. Id gladly pay extra to have that. Unfortunately I dont even want to buy it even if it is a lower price now without the things I mentioned. Lastly, these tiny amps shouldnt be treated as beginner amps by orange.. it tarnishes their own name cause people hear it and go WOW. And they expect it to have those other things but it doesnt.. so they could have the best product on the entire market but chose not to. Nice
The only down side to me is no numbers on the nobs
For anyone unsure about this Amp, please also see this video of me playing Little Wing using the Orange Crush 20
th-cam.com/video/yM6sXwDXlMU/w-d-xo.html
The amp is a bargain
I'm not really sold at its price point its hard to go past a fender Mustang series 1 or 2, mustangs can be picked up cheap and I've seen series 2 40 watt mustang 2's cheap which is a better deal, put in another $50 and the Boss katana 50 becomes a choice and thats a great amp
Are you Tobias Forge?
This or the Marshall mg15?
Orange
@@vinedelux3987 thanks i made it to orange 🍊 nice sound but a little fuzzy in his distortion
I returned an mg15 for this amp and am happy that I did.
@@barrygagnon8629 thanks for the info already make my choice the orange amp. Love the tone.
You should make some videos on the Marshall code
There are a few Marshall Amps that I want to review! Thank you for watching and commenting!
What interests you about the Marshall code?
In other words, what about the Marshall Code would you like for me to make a video about?
@@5MinuteMusic The code has a lot of potential for some killer tones(especially distorted lead tones) but I find it a bit difficult to dial in
@@heinoviljoen9457 So if I got the amp and did some "How to Dial in a Lead Tone" videos, would that be worth your time?
The Fender Mustang LT25 is a better amp at the same price to me.
Is this fella gig worthy?
Now its 199 on amazon
The Orange Crush 20 is still $149. The Orange Crush 20RT is $199. Thank you for watching and commenting!
i got mine 2 years ago and its all dusty and has pizza sauce on the side lol
This amp has no Delay or Reverb And in my opinion It's not the best choice for Beginner Guitar players. Some of the new stuff coming out is better.
Greg, will you please give me some examples of some amps to review for beginners? Thank you for watching and commenting!
Orange crust 20 vs fender champion 20?
Not into heavy metal kind of music, more the indie/psychdelic reggae
Definitely the Orange for that indie/psychedelic punch
These are $200 now... still worth our money??
The RT model is $200. You're getting a reverb dial and tuner, but for $50 more it's not worth it
3:23 - WUT?! You call this farting sound "great"?! :)))
