I purchased this head for its dirty side, but fell in love with its cleans. Without sounding cliche, this amp truly is as good as it gets in the $500 market, and it does indeed punch above its weight class.
Playing American metal music, I was never a big fan of British amps as I couldn’t seem to get enough gain from them. Then I got my first Blackstar, and I started to change my opinion. Today, my Orange Super Crush 100 came, and I’m a believer.
I bought an Orange Crush Pro 120C back end of 2019 and sold off my Mesa 15 watt amp (which over the years has cost me more money than the amp cost me in the first place) about 2 days later. I constantly hear TH-camrs saying that Solid State amps are so close to valves amps. But the truth is the Crush Pro series was just as good if not better than most valve amps. I defy anyone to sit in front of me and tell me if I am playing a valve/tube amp or a Crush Pro when they can't see the amp I am plugged into. I have heard and played the Super Crush and it is a great amp, but there really is not that much of a difference for me to buy the new one right now.
I used to have Mesa Dual Rectifier + SLO100 custom copy and Mesa Mark V 25. I had to sell of my gear because I was building a house and I'm now trying to get some gear back. But I will be buying solid state power amp and using PC with some amp modeler as preamp. Infinite number of tones and great sounding as well. I don't see any point for most of the people to get into valve amps anymore. Just get a good solid state amp or amp modeler, be it hardware or PC + software and you're set.
I've been spending time with my new Super Crush 100 and I can say it definitely has a spectacular clean channel. Chimey bell-tone notes with the guitar pickup selector switch in the middle position (both front and rear pickups combined). But I'm still trying to decide about the dirty channel. So far, my Marshall still wins in this regard but, who knows, I may find a perfect crunch setting on the Super Crush that just dazzles me. I'm getting close already. Sounds better (or bigger) through two 4 x 12 cabs, but may be too much for small gigs. The overall amp tone is very mid-range voiced, and this is actually a good thing. My Delay pedal sounds best through the effects loop rather than in front of the amp on this one (just my opinion of course) and I only wish one of the two footswitch inputs on the back would control the Effects Loop on/off instead of controlling Reverb. (The reverb does sounds great on the clean channel however.) On the dirty channel, with gain set between 7 and 8, you can still hear each note within a fairly high gain chord, so that's really cool for rhythm parts. I'm still working to get a great Lead tone though. Glad my guitar has the treble bleed wiring, because it should allow me to use the guitar's volume control backed off a bit for rhythm and then roll on more volume for leads. This means the gain on the amp can be really cranked up in order to achieve that long-sustaining and singing lead tone. Otherwise, I may end up using an overdrive or distortion pedal to get it the way I like and to be able to go from crunch to lead on the fly without fiddling with my guitar volume control so much. I believe this amp is worth the current price and I'm glad I purchased it.
I am a tube amp guy…. Good ol 6505…. Now with the american tube market in serious trouble i have to look at potential backup plans…. This head is leading my list
I keep watching vids on this head. I'm really leaning toward getting one for live playing with my band. So tired of having tube amps taking a shit in the middle of a gig. Love their sound and it is less of an issue at rehearsal, but damn, l don't need the stress for a live show.
I bought one when my Mesa’s tubes started to go and I couldn’t find replacements. I’ve played out with it several times and it sounds great! I play through a Mesa 4x12 and there’s more than enough volume and I’ve gotten several compliments on the tone. You should totally go for it.
You Rock I get mine in November I can't wait to get my new combo I get to put my Mesa Boogie in the closet and I don't have to worry about burning out my power tubes anymore because I practice all day long every day when I can now I get to play my new Limited Edition PRS dark green burst with my Boss ME -80.
I bought one these Supercrush 100 amps, tried it through several cabinets but just didn’t like it. I liked the clean channel better than the Dirty, which kind of went against my initial reason for purchase as I wanted that famous orange dirty sound. After a week I returned it to the store I purchased from and swapped it for a Rocker 15 Terror. What a difference! Instantly got the Orange sound I was looking for, the ‘headroom to bedroom’ option is great for playing fairly quietly at home. I say quietly because even at 0.5 Watts it can get loud. I guess I’m going to admit I’m a valve/tube snob. My advice would be to spend an extra £70/$100 and get a Rocker 15 Terror.
My advice would be to get the Super Crush 100 and make sure you break the speakers in. (Much better than the Rocker 15 Terror imo) p.s I’ve not owned the Super Crush, but I have own the Rocker 15 and the CR120 pro.
There's no need for solid state amps to be compared to tube amps anymore. They are their own thing now. It's not 1980 when tube amps were the shit and transistors were CRAP. I don't know if the amp industry is the only one keeping the tube production alive, but if that's the case, maybe it's time to close it and more on to more modern, cheaper and more sustainable methods? There's been a huge improvement in transistor amps and modeling amps are killing it as well.
I love both types of amps but there is something special in a tube amp, in my opinion. I have a dual terror and on certain settings it's like I can hear the sound become alive, it's hard to describe. It's something I've never heard in a solid state.
@@BungleJoogie68 that’s also a gimmick. In movie and music applications amplification has been perfected for a long time. Linear from 20hz to 20 kHz. The only reason some people prefer tubs is nostalgia or they prefer low even order harmonic distortion in everything they hear. Makes sense for guitar. Does NOT make sense when amplifying the human voice or other things that do not sound better with more distortion.
My local towns are super small and have very little gear. I was hesitant to go elsewhere for this amp, in that, I was concerned with the response and dynamics of the amp, specially with OD or boost in front. I didn't think solid state amps were very responsive in that sense, and I had the impression that a boost would merely boost volume. You gave me enough reasons to at least try, and I have to say I'm pretty sold! I think you're one of the fews (if not the only) channel that addresses this interaction between amp amp OD or boosts! Thank you!
Wow, nice price for what seems to be a great amp!! Anyone remember the Smokey Bears from the '80's? Glasgow bend that had the full Orange line up from memory.
@@anarchywon4170 Sure thing. So you know, I play a lot of 80s shred like Ratt, Dokken, Van Halen as well as Hair and Sleeze like Poison, LA Guns and Guns n Roses. You can throw in Metallica, Slayer, Creator, Sepultura and newer stuff like Slipknot, Godsmack, Korn, etc. I play as rocking blues type stuff like ZZ Top, Georgia Satellites. Lynard Skynyrd, George Theroghgood, etc. I also cover the Cars, Journey, Boston, REO Speedwagon, etc. I'm not saying I play all these songs spectacularly. Some I'm still trying to get good and some I've been playing over the past 41 years. Add KISS to the list too! Lol! I believe this Orange Super Crush will be able to handle over 60 years worth of music and put it's own spin on the various tones. I wanted to give a list of all the bands I will be playing through this awesome head.
@@roosterj2599 Sounds like you have great taste in music my friend. I'm a blues/rock man myself but I grew up on Poison, billy idol, Bon Jovi, Ozzy, acdc as well pearl jam, nirvana, the wallflowers, matchbox 20 and of course Metallica. Kirk hammett was the reason I started playing lead to be begin with. As I got older I started gravitating towards playing the blues and got into Howlin' Wolf, bb king, R.L. Burnside, T-Model Ford, Robert Johnson. I've been picking that 6 string for 23 years now. Cheers!
@@anarchywon4170 Thank you. Looks like we have a lot in common. My main guitar influence is Mick Mars. He made me get serious about playing to where I found I could learn by ear. I listened to Shout at the Devil and played along with every song on the album until I was confident and relaxed. Of course I learned as much of Too Fast for Love and all their albums up until Dr Feelgood. Metallica came out around the same time as the Crue and I bought Kill em All because I thought the name was cool and the album cover was cool. After one listen Metallica changed the game for me and me as well, Kirk made me want to play leads and shred. I became a student of his style and took a lot from it. Kirk Hammett is my second biggest influence. In 1990 I bought Alice in Chains Facelift based on a friends recomendation. I was floored. Jerry Cantrell became another influence. In 1991 I watched the premiere of Nirvana's Smells like teen Spirit and that changed the game again. Then the flood of awesome grunge bands came out and I was hooked. Kurt Cobain became my 4th main influence. I remember everyone referring to Alice in Chains as Sludge Metal. I must concur. Just like LA Guns and GnR were considered hair metal, but they are more Sleeze than Hair. I've played through so many set ups and amps over the years. My first guitar was a black 1979 Fender Strat. I discovered the humbucker and traded it for an Arbor Super Strat with a red and black paint job, rosewood board with 22 big fat frets and a Dimarzio Super Distortion in the bridge with one volume control. Then I wanted a Floyd Rose and picked up an 85 Kramer Baretta which took everything I saved up for a year. Then came BC Rich, Charvel, Jackson, Epiphone, ESP of which I bought a George Lynch signature Kamikaze and a mid 90s Kirk Hammett ESP M2 Custom. Now I'm a huge Schecter player and fanatic. I got my first Schecter Sun Valley Super Shredder in surf green and was blown away. Now I have a S hector Explorer style in matte red with binding, Floyd and a Sustainer pickup and a pink 3 single coil Nick Johnston Strat that beats Fender across the board. I have always played Crate amps and love the compressed, tight tone they have, but my Crate G120 2X12 combo is falling apart. I bought a Kustom 100w halfstack for about $400 new and it sounds like ass when you turn it up. The reverd, delay and chorus are weak and sound horrible. At least I got a decent upgradeable 4X12 cab out of it so I can run my Suoer Crush through it until I get a decent cab. I bought a 50w Boss Katana Mk2 and I'm very disappointed in it. It doesn't like to be turned up to gig with. It sounds horrible to be honest. Not my thing to be getting online and playing with an app. I feel the Orange Crush Pro 100 is the answer to my problems. It does everything I would ask of an amp. It has this dreamy creamy sound that I think is amazing and it's so versatile. I can drop a few Distortion pedals out of my chain. I plan on using the dirty channel for my main sound. I'm so excited.
@@roosterj2599 I've been through my fair share of equipment over the years especially as my style has changed. I still have my first B.C. Rich warlock, another seven string warlock, I had a peavey rotor that was really cool, a harmony strat style, ltd kh-202 (kirk hammett signature) which is my go to guitar. I keep it in standard and play all my metallica and hair metal with it through a marshall combo that I've had for years now. Sounds massive! I have an old boss GT-8 effects processor that I bought new right when they came out way back and it does EVERYTHING, from shimmery chorus for 80's leads, overdrive/distortion, reverb, delay and pre delay, vibrato, tremolo, leslie rotary speaker simulation, univibe, The whole nine yards. I currently have my sights set on a fender american professional ii stratocaster that I can't get off my mind the last few months. And then this orange amp comes out and I think to myself man that strat would sound awesome thru that amp. Lol maybe I'll get both.
Thanks for doing this! I'm in the process of checking out the orange amps as u have never given them an honest chance ..nor have I ever played one..this is fantastic amp..
He's a good sales person. Not easy to sell amps on a you tube demo, when quite honestly they ALL sound the same. Yet he has to present the enthusiasm that they are somehow different and the next best thing.
The problem with most amps is that they can do modern sounds/ post grunge sounds WAAAAY to easily but are impossible to get that classic brown or plexi sound. It seems like this orange “valve killer” suffers from the same issue. Ill have to try it out and see if it sounds as bad at getting a brown sound in person
In a world where mostly everyone is doing things similar to what Ola Englund is doing, I believe its fair to say that these thrash and death metal type demos and reviews are even more done to death@@FPSBird
Orange amps have more low mids than Marshalls, in my experience. Marshalls sit more in the high mid region (1-5kHz). I think that's what he means. That spanky tone. Guitar tone as a whole is almost entirely mids.
I LOVE how this guy rocks out. Every time I see him playing, he's absolutely enjoying himself. Keep it up buddy! 🤘🤘🤘
Definitely agree.. this guy rocks
Very friendly dude
I rock out too, I just play ten times worse.

One year later, how's your Super Crush doing? Would you recommend?
Dagan needs a signature strap line lol love this guys energy.
What every guitarist wants, a signature strap
@@nicholas2508I mean it's not the coolest but it's cooler than having no signature guitar thing
I was blown away with the Orange Super Crush 100 when I plugged into one. There is no better solid state amp in existence. This one is special.
You’re the man, Dagan. Your energy and enthusiasm make these videos a pleasure to watch.🤘🏽
Good enough for Ty Tabor. Good enough for me. Awesome Video Dude. Just picked one up myself,.and eagerly awaiting for it to arrive.
Did you get it? What are your thoughts?
How did the Orange SC 100 work out for you?

I bought a black one from PMC the week it was released after watching Dave Simpsons video on his.
It’s been getting loads of use since it arrived 😎👍
Damn super jealous of everyone getting theirs this soon. Mine wont ship out til mid November

This is very tempting, and you are right you are the first I've seen to put an overdrive in it. Killer playing and great tones as always!!
I am a tube amp guy…. Good ol 6505…. Now with the american tube market in serious trouble i have to look at potential backup plans…. This head is leading my list
why is it in "serious trouble"?
Only Russian made tubes are restricted supply. JJ’s are made in Slovakia an EU/ NATO country so tubes supplies will not run out.
I started playing 1 month ago. And my only amp at the moment is orange brand. I LOVE IT TO BITS
Nice! Even their small practice amps sound killer!
@@ramonw9430 mine is I believe a 40 watt
They are a completely different beast than all the others. Something special about them that I can’t describe bit I know it when I hear it
Love my OR15. Micro terror is a bad ass too.
I picked up this big boy used and couldn't be happier!
For a Solid state amp that tone is fantastic.
It also feels fantastic. With the preamp cranked, it's incredibly close to that tube amp response.
For an amp that tone is fantastic** lol
Yea is the price differenct of like £400 worth it probably not, just put an eq in th loop. This amp is spectacular
@@schecter5035 How is that not worth it ? Thats almost half the amount of money lmfao
@@helio1055 because paying twice as much for something only just better is probably not worth it? Wdym?
I just ordered the combo. Should have it in a few weeks.
its been a few weeks lol
How’s that amp going?!
Soooo??
Did you get it? 2 years on would you recommend this amp?
Nice review as always Dagan, you totally rock man. Got me craving another amp I probably don't need.

Solid state jcm800 amps are amazing, and they are from the 80’s. Far from being crap…
There are tubes used in some high end preamps for home theater/audio use, but essentially that's still the amp industry.

Yes and you should considering playing through a 4X12, it makes a huge difference. IMO
Well done for putting in the overdrive pedal

can i use this with my evh cab, i have the evh 5150 III 2x12 Guitar Speaker Cabinet
Sure can. He'll! I'm using my $200 Kustom 4X12 cab and it sounds great. Yours will sound better than mine for sure.
Amazing demo dude. Thanks!
It sounds great, though it doesn't sound like tubes to my ear, but more like a Great Solid State amp.
Favorite Orange player- Marcus King
He's a good sales person. Not easy to sell amps on a you tube demo, when quite honestly they ALL sound the same. Yet he has to present the enthusiasm that they are somehow different and the next best thing.
It genuinely is a great amp, though.
They give Dagan good gear to demo. He doesn’t have to make up the enthusiasm. We’d all play this gear every day if we could.
Why use a distortion pedal? The amp does a fantastic job of distortion on its own.
Been looking into this amp for months! Love the tone of the rockerverb mkiii this i need
You'll love it
Good amp, but in my opinion for cleans, the CR Crush Pro amps are better have more clarity, but also depends on the guitar your playing..
Dagan, any chance you could put up a lessons channel to teach us some of your riffery?
What was that opening riff? Killer playing as always.
He wrote it.
i want the combo so bad !
Gonna pick one up whenever they hit the USA
Some subtle delay would make that tone perfect for me!
Great review!
Sounds great
A good amphead for hard rock, glam metal, hair metal
The problem with most amps is that they can do modern sounds/ post grunge sounds WAAAAY to easily but are impossible to get that classic brown or plexi sound. It seems like this orange “valve killer” suffers from the same issue. Ill have to try it out and see if it sounds as bad at getting a brown sound in person
Why would you want to sound like something that has already been done to death, if you want a plexi sound get a marshall.
In a world where mostly everyone is doing things similar to what Ola Englund is doing, I believe its fair to say that these thrash and death metal type demos and reviews are even more done to death@@FPSBird
I’m guessing too loud for just home use 🤷♂️
@@Tangman4209it’s solid state! Turning it down is no problem. But as with all amps you need enough volume for the speaker to move.
Just get a plexi then. Not rocket science.
What do think about a Bax Bangeetar and a Pedal Baby instead? Who needs an Orange clean channel.
Turbonegro at 5:48 lol this guy rules
Nice reverb too
I gotta bag me one of these for live use!

Not mid pokey like a Marshall?
I'd say orange have even more mids than a Marshall
Orange amps have more low mids than Marshalls, in my experience. Marshalls sit more in the high mid region (1-5kHz). I think that's what he means. That spanky tone.
Guitar tone as a whole is almost entirely mids.
This definitely has a Marshall flavor going. More high mids than the Crush Pro 120 which I like.
@@timbuk1126 Yeah I agree. I played one and it had the sound and feel of a vintage marshall, definitely not a modern marshall though.
What model Kramer is that? It is super nice
Looks like a Pacer.
Nice Kramer.
No 4 ohm output option means no buy from me.
Could you do a demo on the terror stamp?
He's certainly enthusiastic.
Frank Iero.. The guys who convinces me to buy my 1st amp, orange crush 35rt..
What kind of camera were you guys shooting with in the beginning?
QUESTION:
I heard that the Super Crush 100 has less lower end than Crush Pro 120. Any truth to that?
It’s slightly brighter then the Cr120 which is darker. But you can roll off the treble 😎
would the super crush and a 2x12 be too loud for a bedroom?
Riff at 5:35 sounds familiar but can't remember. Any help?
That sounds stupid good.
What orange cab are you using?
I'm in love
U need a eq in fx loop then your in Heaven ❤
Can't hear the tone over the noise floor.
What?
was that a Madball riff at the 5:50 mark ??
All my friends are dead- turbonegro
What do you mean fast response and you hear it as soon as you hit the strings? Is there an analog amp with latency?
If someone has to explain that feeling you wouldn't understand
Just earned yourself a sub my fren….nice.
My god a Turbonegro riff.
Yo how much is that guitar looks stunning
F YEAH!
Why not?
