Even though it's 'just a practice amp,' we thought the Crush 20RT deserved a full-blown demo, so here you go!
It's pretty crazy how good this thing sounds mic'ed up. Grab one today for $189
reverb.com/item/35171636-oran...
2 channels with 3 band eq on the dirty channel, plus a built in tuner and reverb make this the best sounding practice amp on the market. Also, if you're feeling lucky, you can take it to a gig and throw a mic on it and get some killer tones.

@@james.kaloki That’s too bad as the Orange is more inspiring to play especially if upgrading to the Orange 35 r/t which has the 10in speaker and handles the bass much better than the 20 r/t. I only say so for the Orange will get you a lot further in the long run depending on what kind of aspirations you might have musically. Either ways I do hope you are enjoying your choice and your exciting jump/transition to electric! Q” Which electric guitar are you going with?! If you’re not bothered may you also assist my curiosity, What tuning are you going to be playing in and what kind of songs are you wanting to play on electric?! Joyous blessings!!! ☯️

Bought a 20RT a couple of weeks ago.. Installed a Cab Out jack on the back and it is a very handy unit now.. The cleans are very nice.. The combo itself is so light and manageable sized and now I can plug it into most any cab .. It's a keeper for sure.. The reverb is good enough for the job. About the only con I can think of is it would be nice to have an effects loop, but I can manage that as this is just a minimalistic set up , The tuner is a waste of time which is irrelevant imo.. For what it's designed for I'd say it is a darn good unit. I've played for decades but this would be great for most beginners as you can get decent tones out of it right out of the box.. You can set the cleans and Dirt settings separate and can add a foot switch to go between them if you need it. Give a young beginner a Katana and they will become a modeler tweeker , instead of a guitar player.. lol This little rig is like plug and play...

My four year old son loves music and pretending to play air guitar or the plastic guitar but shows little interest in guitar itself. However he "wants a ukulele to be like daddy" :) music is so important for them I think. I ordered it from rich tone music here in the UK 👍 Very happy with the sound for the price.

Thanks for this, great overview. Trying to justify a small practice amp with reverb that is loud enough for occasional group use, but cheaper than Katana, and Crush 20RT is one that always sounds good to me. In Canada it's only $40CAD cheaper than the Katana 50 MKII, which offers a lot more flexibility plus the 12" speaker. At that price trying to justify the Crush20RT is tough despite the great tones. If it was closer to $200 in Canada I'd snap it up. But the Crush 20 which is $200CAD is missing reverb and that's a deal breaker.

Well I just went and watched a Katana demo - I'll be honest, I wanted to hate it, but I just couldn't do it! It does sound pretty sweet and covers a lot of territory. If you've gotta have that Orange tone though, you should check out the CR35rt - it's a little more $$$ but a larger speaker and more wattage with reverb. Cheers on your tone quest!

I have a lot of respect for the Katana series but one reason I might pick one of these up is the relative simplicity. For a true practice amp sometimes having too many features distracts from the actual practicing that I should be doing. Of course, in a perfect world I would have a roomful of amps and both this and the Katana would be in it!

I hated this amp. Bought it out of impulse and had it 4 months before I sold it. I wanted to like it, but I just couldn't. It was lifeless and flat sounding like I was plugged into a cheap little radio. I cranked the bass ALL the way up and it still sounded thin. It did have a decent Orange "crunch" and sparkly cleans but that's about its only highlights. Gain under 5 was nonexistent, reverb over 5 was way too springy, and the on-board tuner was useless. It never worked for me. I just ended up growing frustrated and throwing on my clip-on tuner. I'm not a fan of the knob placement on Orange amps either. What sense does it make to put them in the back, recessed under the cabinet and facing up? You can't see your settings unless you're directly over it because the knobs block them. I was glad to be rid of this amp

Tell us how you really feel! But for real - we appreciate your honest input on the amp. I agree the small speaker can be a bummer if you're looking for a lot of low frequency power. That's hard to find on many practice amps. Did you find something else that you ended up liking more? We'd love to know so we can look into it. Also- on the tuner, we haven't had the same issues, so I'm curious what specifically your issues were - were you using standard tuning or an alternate tuning? I think it's only capable of standard. And the knobs do take some getting used to - they model them after their higher end amps that are mostly head and cabinet units, so the translation to combos gets a little wonky. Anyway, thanks for dropping us a comment! We always love talking with other gear-heads even if you don't love the same gear we demo. Cheers!

@@totljag1 I already had a Fender Champ 40, which sounds much better all around than the Orange. But my friend ended up getting a hold of a Marshall VS65 (valvestate) from the 90s that he couldn’t use so he gifted it to me.

That was so funny...AN EXCELLENT REVIEW AND I ENJOYED ALL...until you went for it on that Tele and it then...guess what...WENT SHARP! I do not play Teles for this reason. Teles go sharp as you play and that makes them Garbage.I uses to have a Tele that looked just like that one and gave it away in trade for labor to make my Gibson V in fighting shape once again! Play a Strat of any make, me...I love my Gibson V and my Ibanez saber from ol school, dayz! Cannot beat that with a stick! DUDE! Take a $99 Strat fake for a beginner and you will have a better luck than ANY Tele, period. Only my opinion...

I guess to each his own! There are so many copies out there now- it’s crazy how good a guitar can be for so cheap. I’ll take a Strat or a tele! Both are killer options for some twang or blues.

@@MasonMusicRocks Yes, but the guitars need to be gone through and made worthy of playing for more than five minutes. I am. metal dude so maybe that is my downfall here. Loved the review playing on an Orange amp. I have that amp on its way to my door in a couple days. I am going to play right through it on my custom built Ibanez saber and then once I have my Gibson V restoration completed, that one too. Yes, to each his own. I hope you like your Fenders!

You are using More than Just the amp. You have Mics and running through other speakers. Not a very good review my opinion. I wanted to know about the amp, not all the other equipment.

Hey Russell! Thanks for the comment - I think there may be a slight misunderstanding. The mics we used in the studio were selected to represent the actual true sound of the amp as clear as possible. The only speakers the sound is running through are the speakers on your end (your iPhone or laptop or speakers). We just tried to capture the sound as raw as possible with no processing. Hope that helps! It really does sound this good!

Yak yak yak, 7 minutes in and you are still talking. More demo and less talk. 3 eq controls, input jack, reverb, gain, clean. That's it say it once in about 30 seconds then, let's hear the thing. I would never waste another second of my time on one of your reviews. You must are getting paid by the minute or something.
