Let me know if you have ever been surprised by an amp or guitar you thought you'd hate! Enjoy
Can you please do a Thailia Capo review Thanks!
I never thought I’d own a Telecaster. I never really liked the looks, especially the headstock. About 2 weeks ago something changed and I suddenly got an itch for one. After watching TH-cam videos on Teles for the past 2 weeks I finally pulled the trigger and ordered one. Can’t wait to get my hands on it.
I have tried many different amps trying to replace my 50watt Boss katana. Lunchbox, full size ,mini even amp pedals . Forget it ,I’m keeping my katana 4 ever .
Congratulations!
Crate BV120 boosted with a Rocktron Rampage, on top of a EVH 4x12.
Orange you glad you got that amp.
Lol nice
Lol!!! 😂🤣😆..... I don't get it. 🤔
Haha! 😂
@@mrfender5001 orange is supposed to be aren’t lol
@@redautumn5441 Yes. I was being sarcastic. Lol. But I appreciate you explaining it anyways.
I absolutely LOVE orange amps. Their distortion sounds so distinct and crunchy I just can’t get enough of it.
So good. One of the best amps if you ask me.
hard yes on this Jonathan! I have a Dual Dark 50, I'm heavily impressed and surprised how good the gain structure on Channel B is every time I plug in my guitar.
by the way the Dual Dark is a sleeper amp: we put an acoustic guitar through Channel A, some reverb in the loop and wow... it delivers, I'm super happy with it! 😃
It sounds fuzzy which is kinda shite
@@mehegama that’s my love hate with them
@@mehegama That's thier character. Not clones of other amps. I'm glad they go for something different. Shite? That's an opinion, not a fact.
The history behind the symbols is that they were meant to be universally understood regardless of language barriers. Let’s be honest, they are pretty easy to understand after fairly minimal effort. Definitely not worth passing up such amazing tone over!
Seriously, God forbid you just have to twiddle around some knobs a little bit. I am visually impaired and this is my journey with every new amp because I can’t read any symbols any amp manufacturers use. Not to mention this day and age it’s easy enough to hop on Google or TH-cam where someone else has already deciphered that stuff for you.
Yeah, it’s extremely childish how people behave around these symbols. Two are derived from music theory as well, but god forbid guitarists learn some music!
A stand out design with these symbols... One of Orange's signature features, I'd say. Together with color scheme.
@@3rdStoreyChemist it's extremely lazy not to label it.
@@beefnacos6258 It’s far lazier to need them on very basic amplifiers.
I like how he describes the faun strumming the lyre as a goat dude with horns wiping his hands with a towel
yep.
Exactly. 🤦🏻♂️🤯
Yeah I had a Zep bootleg with that kind of cover . Sort of.
LOL
Oh, *that's* what that is, a lyre! 😀 I was just trying to consult the internet to find out, but in vain! 🙂
I like how every review of Orange amps make a point of saying "if your looking for a clean amp it's probably not the amp for you" yet the clean sounds are pretty much always better sounding to me than those other holy grail clean amps like Fenders. I've had Fenders, Marshalls and Boogies but never had an Orange, and yet when I played an Orange it was the best sounding amp I had ever played but it was too expensive for me at the time. I think I just need to get one and quit dingle fritzing around. Thanks for the videos!
You and me both. No more dingle fritzing.
(Sounds like a German character who hikes from town to town, delighting the townsfolk and the children with his piccolo playing and tremendous tales of conquests past - of meeting a friendly monster who lived in a cave, to fighting the hedgehog people to free Princess "Pink Balloon." "Dingle Fritzing". 😀).
@@lueysixty-six7300 hahaha..
It's funny cause I feel the same way too... But one thing I learned about Orange absence most people that use the clean on those amps including the Me R usually are pedal heavy guys... They're really good Taking Pedals.. But a lot of their mid rage amps which in my opinion that's the only bad side about them and some of them don't have Effects loops. Which even if they hold petals really nicely I still think a decent amp admitted rain should have an effect loop
My cleans on my OR15 sound better than any Fender I've played.
@@lueysixty-six7300 Brilliant definition of Dingle Fritzing...🤣🤣🤣
Darrell always love your honest opinions! I believe your truly one of the honest ones that keep it genuine. Thanks for doing all you do for us in the guitar community.
Thanks for the kind words JR! 🍻
"Goat dude wiping his hands with a towel" LOL
I've loved the sound of Orange for at least a decade. I'm so glad to see you're keeping it. I only just bought a Rocker 32 and haven't learned all its secrets yet, but I can't wait
That jagged waveform with the arrow is a symbol for a variable resistor in electronics. Varying the resistance in an electronic circuit of an amplifier varies its gain. So that label is correct.
True, but I can see that being unfamiliar to some. It might look lime squiggly lines and therefore A signal or waveform, especially with all the other weird graphics.
@@P_Ezi all of the symbols seem pretty intuitive to me personally ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@Fred Wills True dat
@@P_Ezi At some point in time, we learned that a pot labelled "Gain" or "Drive" or "Preamp" made the sound do a certain thing. Just add this symbol to the list of "visual indicators" that seem to mean the same thing and everyone is happy ;)
@Fred Wills There’s no such thing as volume within the context of an amplifier. Increasing gain will translate into increased sound pressure within a space, which we refer to as ‘volume’, but the controls on an amplifier are either gain or attenuation.
you need to know i was down and out for the count , when i came across your channel , the freaking inspiration you give off just turned my life around about music and playing thank you darrell from another darrel (lost my whole left arm at 47 so cudos brother for you )
So cool you went from "not interested", to, "not selling this amp" after getting to use it for a while. Excellent review sir, thank you.
Darrell, you nailed it from the beginning. “This is one of the heaviest overbuilt amps I’ve ever used”. YES! I own TWO Orange AD30r amps that I would play in stereo and my band mates hated me when it came to load in and out. I’m sure they use lead weights to keep it from jumping off the stage from all the tone you get. Everyone loves the amps….until you have to move them. Welcome to Orange, Darrell.
Boss Katana surprised me. Rockerverb is a totally fantastic amp.
I have a katana and a crush 20rt.
Compared to what we had we had back in the day.. ...I'm spoiled
What do you like about the Katana? I can't get a decent tone out of that thing.
@@SethWorsham it's a practice amp. It weighs nothing. It costs less than 300 bucks. It sounds ok across the board with an easy to use layout. I teach 50 lessons a week and it's a great amp for that. Plus....most importantly, I can play, so any POS amp sounds better than most orthodontists through their $3000 Friedmans.
@@SethWorsham ummmm...
1. Its a pretty good size amp under 300
2. Every boss effect .....under 300
3. Watt select
4. Pre loads (patches). Other people already found great settings. Just download them, and apply. Try them, maybe you'll have better luck
@@SethWorsham I have the Katana 100 mk2 and found the clean sound cold with no body to it regardless of the settings.
After trying a celestion greenback speaker inplace of the original it came to life with a warmer fuller sound.
The Japanese never have been great with speakers.
I want this amp! I’ve never played one but for some reason I always thought Orange amps look cool!
I have a RV MKII and the beauty of this amp is that both channels are excellent, luscious clean and searing OD. Simple but extremely versatile EQ, what`s not to love.
Awesome video Darrell as always, love hearing you play.
Good review bro and good choice of guitars for it. You played exactly what I wanted to hear through both channels. I’ll have to check the 2nd hand market down here for one.
Orange makes some of the best solid states (Orange Crush) out there. I've been extremely pleased with my SparkAmp. I'm interested in the H&K Black Spirit, and the Engle Ironball 25.
I had the Rockerverb 50 in the 2X12 combo in the early 2000's. Much heavier than the head alone. It looked lonely so I bought the oversized Orange 2X12 cab as well.
Looked great at home in the study (4X12 in total) but I dreaded the thought of ever having to take it anywhere due to the weight.
I recall really liking both the clean and dirty channels. Eventually I traded the rig for something different.
Years later (about a year ago) I was looking at small compact amps and found the Orange Rocker 15.
Only volume on the clean channel but 3 band EQ on the drive side. No Reverb but these days I use pedalboards to sculpt my sound and the amp has an effects loop.
It's very portable for little garage jams with friends.
Combined with a couple of other portable amps that I have it really works well in Wet/Dry or Wet/Dry/Wet amp setups.
I had missed the old Rockerverb 50 so this has satisfied my Orange craving and saved my aging back.
Weird to see somehow hating the rockerverb when its literally my dream amp, throwing pennies in jars to someday own one used.
Maybe Darrell will sell it to you at a discount....
Man the strat you played is beautiful!!
I absolutely LOVE my Rockerverb 50 which has 6V6 power vacuums. That's monster.
Particulary the dirty channel is really incredible with Orange PPC412 cabinet.
"That distinct sound" is the sound we Orange fans love. I used to have gobs of pedals trying to make other amps *sound* like a gainy Orange. Now, I don't use any drive, crunch, fuzz pedals. I have some time based pedals for the cleaner tones. Chorus, Flanger, etc.
Just bought an Orange 20, yesterday. It's incredible for a practice amp. It easily fills our 4000 sq ft home with quality sounds!
The first time I tried a Jazzmaster was a pleasant surprise to me. Before trying one, all I read about it was that it was difficult to use, with Kurt taping up the switches and replacing the stock saddle with mustang and what not. When I tried it in local L&M, all my preconceptions melted away and I fell in love.
Kurt played a jaguar not a jazz master, similar body but extremely different guitar
I have an 🍊, and I use it about as clean as it gets, and like you said, very serviceable. I also love the edge of breakup blues tones it gets. Good stuff 👌
Really dig that thing. Nice review. Great playing.
I've never owned one, but used that amp at rehearsal studios and it's amazing. Orange makes nothing bad!
I got the Rocker 32. The clean, single vol chanel sounds sooooo sweet. The best natural guitar tone. Really brings to light each guitars sound. The distortion is everything else that is awesome.
The symbols on the panel were partly done for the European market, which is where the amps first caught in.
Having symbols in lieu of text meant they didn't have to translate everything for every country.
Once you learn 'em, they make a lot of sense.
I switched to Orange a few years ago. No looking back.
That is a beast...I never knew that about that amp...thanks for this one...I've tried out Orange before a long time back, but don't remember being impressed...maybe not all Oranges are the same. or I justdidn't know how to tweak it right (prob the latter is really the case)...that model is most awesome! Thanks for covering this one.
Hi Darrell, it's all about power, raw power . I have 2 in the studio including a Terror head. I love them. Put them through the Orange 4x12 and it is awesome . It is Jimmy's main favorite. Thank you Darrell
That's hieroglyph, Darell. Wait till you find your speaker to match with that Rockerverb. You'll love Orange more.
I LOVE it! thaks for reviewing the amp in a matter that does NOT exclusively show off 9 string guitars, tuned to drop Fb with 6 double bass drums in the backingtrack, EQd with scooped mids and the gain turned to 11 :*
Yeah, that’s the worst
It’s equally annoying when the reviewer goes full bonamassa with a high gain monster for the entire review too.
I have a orange micro terror,and it's definitely has a distorted tone that no other brand has, and for a tiny hybrid tube/solid state practice amp....it's bloody loud! And handles pedal really well.
@Far Stox Have you tried the micro dark? The EQ is wayyyy more versatile, and the built in fx loop means pedals or even 4 cabling makes this version a huge improvement. Hope that helps.
Cheers!
great info as usual D Man. with the in your face Orange..lol..Just bought a Fender Squier Affinity..Reall y surprised with it..Love it..Will mod it some later but right out of the box with a change of strings and set up it is a player....
I don't think I've ever seen an Orange demo'd before. Man, I love it.
Great stuff, Darrell!
So funny...as the video began and you mentioned items that you would never buy, I asked myself what guitar I would never consider buying and the first one that came to mind was a Jazzmaster!
I love mine. I was surprised how versatile it is. I find the flavor of overdrive is really different from my other amps, and I really love it for that (and the cleans with a little bite).
For the longest time I thought I wanted a Mesa tone but the more started to play and i really feel in love with Orange. It's perfect for my style of playing Doom/Stoner/Desert metal vibe 🏜
I'm a doom guy as well. But with my OR15, if I want gold blues tone, just clean it up and throw a Klon clone in front and there ya go.
Sounds great. I really dig your charvel. I think my next guitar will be one
Orange, was initially put off but awesome amps, great quality and sound
Enjoyed the video. I have the mk1 and love the clean channel, just put something like an EP booster in front and it sounds amazing. And as you say with the gain stages, you can't really get a bad sound. I think Orange EQ's really well. I used to play a Silverface Twin and a Marshall Jubilee and I think this Orange is up there with them. Though that twin was epic.
Those are great amps. I love that sound. I currently play through a KUSTOM HV 100 212 tube hybrid and was really surprised with it as well.
I have the MK3 version of this amp (the one with the built in attenuator). Just a massive kick ass beast - I use a clean boost into the amp and an EQ, that’s it. No need for drive pedals at all. The MK3 version has a better clean sound IMO than the MK2 in this demo but, other than that, it’s just a simple brute that is all tone!!!
I had never thought I would like the Fender Bassbreaker 30r, being somebody who doesn't use a lot of gain, but now I'm fortunate enough to own this amp and I'm still surprised by its versatility to this day
You finally did an Orange amp!
Don't forget the Orange solid state amps. I have a Crush 35 RT hooked to a Boss ME-80 and I love it to death. Way better than my Marshall or Crate amps.
Got a Fender Mustang LT25 for a basic practice amp not expecting much for $115 but it blew me away, the volume capability, the presets, the connectivity features, it's such a great deal.
Yeah bro it sounds freaking amazing!😳
Pretty cool sounding amp. For me personally, I'd want something that can kind of do it all: clean, muddy, and everything in between. But maybe in 10 years I'll be able to afford one and pick it up.
I have the OR15. Brilliant amp. And it does it all.
Was just looking at the new models. Latest version of this amp is supposed to have a reworked clean channel that is more versatile according to Orange
I’ve had orange amps for several years now and each one has the orange tone. My go to combo is my rocker32 and then I have a rockerverb half stack, a ad30 sitting on a verticals 2x12, pedal baby, terror amps etc. I love them all and it’s become an addiction. The one thing I like stage wise is people look directly at your amp it’s intriguing to those who haven’t seen one and I’ve had other bands at festivals and bike rallies walk up and wanna play the amps. I’m a blues, and hard rock guy. These amps just shine. Mix one of these with a fender amp in stereo set up and it will blow your mind.
I just picked up an RT 35 solid state practise amp; after using a Fender modelling amp, and i am extremely pleased with its sounds and sonic personality.
Always nice to a variety of amps, Orange, Marshall, Vox, Fender, and the rest.
Hell yeah brother. That distortion tone riff was tight and just sick! Many Mastodon albums were recorded with an Orange amp. That should be all you need to know
they didn't use oranges for any of the classic albums we all know from Remission up to CTS. it's a relatively recent development that Brent started touring with their amp heads and not just using them if they were offered as backline. Although Brent has used their cabinets for a good while.
@@TinkerToneworks I just remember seeing Orange in the studio video of Crack the Skye.
@@valuedhumanoid6574 i did forget about the studio doccumetary. you are right about that but the majority of that album was tracked with their Marshall JMPs and I believe a Diezel.
Your soloing always has a real 80s guitar vibe to it. Surprised to hear Charvel is something you usually wouldn't consider buying.
Charvels kick. Ask King Edward, RIP.
@@anitarasmussen2810 If they "kicked" then why did he re-grind the neck and put DiMarzio's on it? Not much Charvel in his Charvel (bumblebee). He was not a big spender on guitars - Teiscos, Ibanez (he ruined that white Destroyer I used to see him play at the Starwood all the time - turned it into the Shark mess), Hamers, Peavey - but ALWAYS modded them anyway WAY beyond stock - truly Frankensteins. 🎸
@@cuda426hemi charvel was where he bought his 1st blank s
@@anitarasmussen2810 He hacked them all because he didn't like any off the shelf guitars so you really can't say Charvel or Kramer or Ibanez or ANY of them kicks ass to him because he would change pickups, necks, tone pots and bodies at will. He didn't even like his OWN EVH guitars by Music Man!! Modding was the 'thing' for him. 🎸
The goat dude is a satyr holding a pan pipe. Though I love the description of "the towel" and the barrel with lettuce. 🙂 I love Orange amps though they can take a while to dial in, especially semi-hollow bodies.
The RVs are pretty dark amps within the Orange Catalog. Models like the AD30 and CS50 achieve much different cleans with more chime, and the crunch character is also different. Once you start exploring the different models, you will find that Orange has a variety of tones to offer.
I love these types of videos👍
The Goat dude on the emblem is holding some Pan pipes Darrell you numpty! Not wiping his hands on a towel hahaha! (Really?)
Hey boss! Great video! FYI: The goat dude is the Greek god of the wild and the "towel" he is holding is his flute (pan flute).
I’m a big fan of Orange Amps. I just ordered the Orange Super Crush 100 in black. I have a small 20RT and a 35RT. I also own a Marshall Origin 20 as well as a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe. The 35 watt Orange is my favorite of the lot. I have high hopes for the Super.
I never liked Orange Amps myself until I demoed one at my local Guitar Center.
I really wanted to play, but all the amps I frequent (Peavey, BOSS, Line 6, Blackstar, MESA) were being used by other people.
The only 2 amps that were available were the Marshall and the Orange; both I've never personally tried. Thought I would like the Marshall, so I tried that one first and didn't much care for it. But when I tried the Orange, MAN, I was blown away.
Not by any means my favorite amp, but definitely was not expecting it to sound so great 👍🏽
For me, Orange has always been the first choice if there has been a tech or roadie to carry it for me. Otherwise it tends to stay at home. The clean channel that isn't all that clean is absolutely wonderful for John Lee Hooker style blues! I just add a bit of delay and reverb and that's it.
Great review 👍👍👍
I'm a bassist. I've been using the Orange Bass Terror for years. It's been beaten to hell over the years during gigs and has never let me down. That was enough to win me over. It sounds fantastic and could probably knock down a mountain if at need it to. I have the OR 15 for recording guitars. I get awesome cleans, throw a Klon clone in front and you have a perfect blues amp. Also have the Micro Terror for jamming. Can't go wrong.
I have the Orange Rockaverb 3 and I have to say ... it is so amazing that even my brother likes it.
Sears Silvertone Twin Twelve (mid-'60's) tube amp with great smooth character and sustain. Sold it to a budding young guitarist needing an amp and also to afford a new '68 Fender Twin Reverb. The Fender has served me very well, but I miss the Silvertone. To hear an identical tone, listen to the lead on the song "Mechanical World" by Spirit.
The clean channel is the best part. I feel like the dirty channel is just to be able to mimic that at a lower volume.
My first Orange was the First Tiny Terror Still have it. I bought the Rocker 15 Terror and it does everything. FX Loop, Bedroom Switch 1 watt and .5 Watts. Both take pedals really
well. Like you said in the end it does that one thing really well. They have to compete with
DrZ Zwreck, Marshall JCM 2204, Engl FireBall 25. They are used all the time. Oh and one
more thing. Another great vid.
CW
H&K TM36 Special Edition is one that surprised me. Tone controls are unique in that they perform best with subtle movements away from 12 o'clock. Great pedal platform or dirty to distortion tone machine on its own. Speaker soak and DI built in along with many features including midi capable control.
Hey I’m right there with you. All the rich kids played this amp when I was playing shows in highschool. I was always so jealous, even though my gear was perfectly fine. Eventually I actually heard it outside of a band setting and hated it. It took years for me to play one and realize the person who was playing it just had bad taste and set it up weird. Though personally I’d prefer their custom shop amp.
I was looking at getting a Rockerverb, but since the Super Crush has come out I'm very much considering getting the cheaper solid state version....
I'd recommend giving it a look for sure
I had absolutely the same mental image of Orange as you had until I came across a video of B.B. King playing one. Damn, that was a very tasty sound! I guess that it all comes down to knowing how to get your best sound out of your gear.
I think the Goat Dude is actually holding a flute….😉😁 I’ve got an Orange Crush 12, love it, sounds great, and looks totally Psychedelic with my Surf Green Tele!
You don't think he is wiping his hands on a pleated towel? A flute you say? A goat person with a flute? Hmmm... Maybe.
Rocckerverb amp rules. Great review.
I have a Fishman Loudbox Performer, several years old, that has way more power and headroom than I need. I bought it as a demo 'cause the price was right, and it's great for my acoustic-electrics, but I avoided using it with my straight-up electrics, for a long time, not trusting the all-digital sound profile. Over the years, however, and occasionally due to necessity, I've used it with a variety of electrics, and I've gradually come around to the point where I like its tone about as well as my Blues Junior. It's a genuine surprise.
Can’t go wrong with orange!!
you are convincing me to study harder, showing such awesome gear
The Rockerverb 50 MK2 has a beautiful clean crisp tone on the clean channel and the usual mild to filthy tones on the dirt channel, a great all-around combo amp with 2x Celestion V30's.
One of my dream amps for sure. Might need to settle for the Super Crush 100, but that's honestly not much of a concession - The SC 100 sounds incredible. I really love the character of Oranges, and I love the versatility.
Sharp move the super crush is jfet which is probably as close to tube sound with solid state as you can get. No bright cap on the volume so great for pedals also it’s designed by the same guy that designed the rockerverb with the intention of making it sound like a rockerverb and he is fussy AF on tone so you know it’s gonna sound good. Have fun now.
@@sid35gb oh yes I'm very familiar, that's why I don't see it as a compromise. Orange has been killing it in the solid state game.
I'm a total fan of the orange crush series, which is solid state variant based on the rockerverb sound. They're a total bang for the buck if you favor orange tones. When the gain is dimed out, it can totally Doom.
I love my Orange. My other amps get exchanged over the years, but the Orange ain't going anywhere. Classic distortion and you don't need a TS :)
Great video! You really nailed the tone and the character of the amp, which I think a lot of people fail to do. Having owned an AD30, a TH100, a Rocker 30, and now a Rockerverb 100 Mk III, you could say I'm a sucker for the Orange tone. The Mk III supposedly has a chimier clean channel than previous versions.
Congrats on an excellent amp purchase. Hope it treats you well!
What's the signal chain? Are you running an attenuator and an IR? Into a cab? Are you using the amp reverb?
Another great review by yourself. I think that this is an Amazing amp and I would love to own one. These are pretty pricey though but I think it sounds Outstanding.
I’d buy one, love the distortion that amp delivers.
Orange tube amplifiers are classic ! I love mine and they also come in black the Jim Root series is custom black !
'bout time you came around, Darrell...Orange gear is legendary for a reason! ;-)
I had a RVerb 50 and traded it for a Dual Dark. Orange makes great amps!
The logo is Pan impressing the lady!
Nissssssssssssssssssce 🍻
Glad ur gonna keep it!🏆
Sounds incredible, and very versatile. Just looked up the price...OUCH!
The Dark Terror is an all tube amp that retails in the $6-700 range which sounds absolutely glorious. If you want one that is even less money, I recently picked up the Micro Dark and I LOVE it!!! It has RIDICULOUSLY amazing tones and it makes me giggle like a school girl every time my band tells me to turn it down. I highly recommend one! I now leave my 50 watt Marshall Plexi at home, and gig with a head that is the size of a jar of peanut butter. God bless the folks at Orange.
Hope that helps.
Cheers!
I really like my Rocker 15 and Jim Root Terror. Never had any trouble figuring the icons out - I actually find them easier to see in low light.
Orange amps are so good. To me, one of the best sounds you can have is an Orange amp on the clean channel with a Blues Driver.
Man. Rockerverb has some good tones
The cleans sound better than I thought it would 👍
That's the reason I never bought a Fender Bandmaster Amp! Huge heavy Amp head and separate 4 speaker cabinet. We used to call them hernia makers!
Hey Darrell! I've recently come across a brand called jcraft. I'm pretty sure they make budget guitars. Anyways I think it would be really cool if you could do a video on them for your budget guitars series.
