The super crush is so goddamn good for the money. It's so meaty sounding and doesn't get lost in the room like some solid states can. Absolutely killer piece of kit.
Something about Mastodon guitar riffs hook you like no other. I also found the guitarist carved himself a nice spot with his solos. Theyve almost got a classic rock feel to 'em
I've never gotten along very well with my super crush for high gain stuff... I hate the restrictive tone I get out of it. Although it does sound pretty sick with an EQ in the fx loop and boost out front. Look forward to your next video of this 🤟
I'm glad someone finally said it I have the supercrush combo and I feel the same way man I hope I can make a good pedal platform out of it if not I wasted 700 bucks on it
@@chrisnichols9187the combo is not great man. I’ve had the combo and immediately returned it for the head version to play through a Marshall 4x12 . The combo is unbelievably constricted and boxy sounding in comparison. The head sounds more like my 800 than it does an orange, but it cuts through a band mix beautifully and sits with loud drums very well. This is opposite of my experience with the old crush pro 120 which was too fuzzy and muddy sounding, and got buried so fast in a band by any Marshall type amp. it doesn’t have the best bass response, but every time I play live i can’t hear the bass in the amp over the bass player anyway..
Finally a demo of this amp. Was getting tired of all the "infomercials" by paid YTers. Glenn Fricker dumped his load in his pants and started screaming and hollering. Super Cringe. Nice to see an Adult like LambChopper do a demo of the amp.
I just grabbed one as Im a dad on a budget lol. Sounds killer for the price. I play BlackThrash so it’s gonna be interesting seeing what tones I can dial in. I grabbed a Friedman OD Deluxe and a Boss 7 band EQ as well
It’s great for metal. The basic tone of the amp is simple and you hit a sweet spot. It’s not super versatile but has loads of headroom for boosting the front end in different ways and the fx loop is nice and clean for taking EQ’s and effects. I did a few other videos on this one and I still enjoy playing through it.
That is one Rocking Amp and Parrott, he 's just setting there listening to his dad rock out, i swear i ven saw his feet move to your Awesome riffs, great video and playing, i ordered this amp, should be here by tomorrow, watching your video makes me more excited to start jamming in it..awesome brother
First of all, love your videos. I just recently bought this amp. I’d love to see a video with you making use of the fx loop and dialing in the best possible metal tone out of this awesome amp. Take care!
I've just taken delivery of my Orange Crush 20RT - and I love it! I can see a Crush 60 in my future.... maybe.... but that'll be a while off! In the meantime - the 20RT scratches that itch I've had since 1978, in Liverpool! Only variance I have is using a momentary footswitch off my keyboard for channel switching; as a rhythm player I don't need to latch into the dirty channel for more than a few bars at a time!
Love the Orange ampsim (Tanger) boosted (or preEQed) in the Two Notes Genome plugin. Some Orange profiles (loaded in Codex) are killer too, especially the rockerverb ones (hello Slipknot Jim Root tone).
Had one of these right when it came out. Ended up returning it. It’s just far too dark sounding. Couldn’t get the amount of treble/presence I like without having to use a BBE in the loop. Too much mids also. I much preferred the TH30.
Was really close to buying a solid state Orange amp before settling on a Katana. They have a sag to the signal that emulates their tube amps. It's something that feels different when your playing. Almost like a bogging carburetor before the secondaries open. That hesitation that fattens the tone in a weird way. Not for me.
I came here to hear the amp, but ended up being more interested in your classic skate deck collection. I see a Rob Roskopp, Jeff Kendall, Frankie Hill, Vallely. Nice!
I really love this amp though oddly enough it's not my favorite to play by itself. With my band though it sounds amazing and that's where it counts for me
That Mastodon tone and riffs were bloody solid, i loved every second of that vid. I wonder if it can take a metalzone to the loop. I'm planning to get rid of my tube amp, but I still have some of the pedals. Not sure how well the 100 takes them.
@@clementnunes5070 It sounds great in loop, just like with a tube amps. :) Couldn't resist the urge, so I'm another owner of that amp. Wish there was a resonance knob, but an EQ pedal will get it done just fine.
Cool demo. However, if you're moving into the amp test realm, please do yourself a favour and try the Headfirst Alta! By far the best sounding amp I've tried in a long while - built by the coolest bloke you'll ever meet.
Curious if you have an opinion on this vs the katana 100 head. I've had the Katana 100 head before and it was decent. Right now I'm mainly in the market for a poweramp for other things and was debating getting a katana 100 again because of the power amp in input in the back, the adjustable 100 watt class AB power amp and price are all fitting the bill for my needs. If the super crush is miles better as an actual guitar amp tho I'd consider it instead. I plan to get the new boss me-90 when they are in stock and also have a line 6 pod go which were the original plans as where to get my tone and use the poweramp of the katana to drive my speaker cabs.
I found the open hammer on sweep riff pretty tough to get clean. I’ve loved Mastodon albums since first hearing Leviathon but for some reason I never learned any riffs. The Czar is a standout favorite that I had to have a go at.
@@LambChopper678 I thought so too! When I asked Orange a few years ago (when I had a super crush) they told me not to do it... 🤷 Cheers for the excellent tones
Not my types of Metal tones, but it does a few good ones. It sounds more like a Stoned Metal/Hard Rock amp while I'm heavily into Marshall's mids or the overpriced ENGL or Friedman. If you can borrow an ENGL Fireball 100W from a shop in your neighborhood, I'd like some Death Metal goodness... :D
I tried the Super Crush but just didn't like it. Not enough gain and sounded like a blanket was over it. Returned it the next day. I was so disappointed
There’s not a lot to tell mate, I love skating bowls and doing the longest smith grinds I can manage. It’s more about the exercise these days but my trucks still wear down to axles after a few months. In the last few years I’ve really started digging slappys and mixing it up from the ramps. I’ve never been any good at technical tricks

Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin are three of their influences.
i had the combo version of this... sounded ok... then i hooked it into a cab and it really came to life. one of the best solid state amps you'll get.

Your a Metal guy who proves crunch is all you need.
Brilliant demo of an amazing amp. Love how you didn't make a mention of the T word throughout! If it sounds good - it's good!
Awesome tones and birds! 💯
Someone's been listening to alot of Mastodon lately... you should try playing Corrosion of Conformity riffs on it (or Down)!
NOLA

Wow! By the sound of it I would never guess that it was a Solid State amp. Great review 🍻🤙

Thank you for posting this review video. I'm going to be getting this amp head in the next few weeks to run through my EVH 5150 4x12 cab
Love your channel! Almost as much as I love your Jeff Kendall deck in the background. Brings back happy memories!
Hushed & Grim is my favourite album of the last decade.
Some killer playing in the beginning man! Great tones aswell

Death & Mastodon riffs? Nice demo :D
I wish you had played some DOWN with it (I think one of the guitar players uses Orange amps) hehe.
Nice work 🤟

You might want to get in to see the doctor about your hearing problem
@@chrisnichols9187 dude sell your super crush and get a life lmao
You have some very patient birds.
Probably not the right amp for me, but a great demo and overview. Great video.
I bet those mids would poke out even with a dark speaker. Sounds sick!
Mids??are you kidding me
Very cool
This sounds awesome. I absolutely love mine, and I've managed to pull just about everything from it. What speaker cab you using though
Great vid. How about some Warp Riders album riffs from The Sword? Please and thank you.
Not really an orange guy, but it sounds pretty nice.
That sounds good,if you can get a Marshall valvestate 8100.I have a lot of high end tube heads and I find I play the valvestate 8100 the most.
So the gain doesn't do anything under 12: 00?
Nothing

Metal Rules! Skateboarding F**King Rules. But those birds.. super rule.
YEA CHOPPAH!
Have you tried a Pepers Pedals Dirty Tree boost into this SC100?
Do you like avenged sevenfold at all? Would be curious to hear you do some tone matching to something like city of evil or nightmare.
Those birds are a trip. lol
What's the song/riff at 2:50 ? Feel like I've heard it before but can't recall
It's The Czar by Mastodon, towards the end of the song.

How are your headphones plugged in? I know it doesnt have an input, are you able to do silent practice with it?

try hi watt crunch 150, killer Jackson btw!
can you make video abt stoner/doom guitar tone??

Lol Overlord!!!
is 100 watt solid state amp loud as much as 100 watt tube amp? any differences?
This isn’t as loud as my 5150 50w
It seems pretty quiet for a 100w amp
Description says you ran this into your Captor X - just double checking this is correct as I didn't think you could do this with a solid state amp?
It’s correct. Any amp that outputs to a cabinet can utilize the captor x

Is that a Marshall MX212? Or a Lead 212?
It’s a 1936v closed back 2x12 with g12 vintage speakers
Did u like this or the boss katana better?
