As Orange amps have defined entire eras of guitar-playing musicality, decades spent as the go-to gear of countless studio and stage professionals can sometimes make the prospect of innovation difficult. Fortunately, the minds behind Orange’s indelible amplifier offerings understood the value in diversifying the tools available for traversing new tonal territories. Their OR30 utilizes a tube rectifier and cathode bias to deliver 30 watts of flexible, powerful sonics that move from British clean to high-gain overdrive. Tone crafting takes on an entirely new dimension, thanks to a 3-position brightness switch - an Orange first. With so many realms to explore, we needed not one, but two of Sweetwater’s sound hounds for the job: Nick Bowcott and Don Carr. Check it out!

I love this sound! I'd love to add this to my Sweetwater wish list through your app, but it doesn't run on current Android OS. Gonna have to add to my Thomann wish list and see if your app is upgraded before I get the cash to buy one of these. I prefer Sweetwater, am a loyal customer normally, but I prefer app functionality over internet browser functionality.

These look great...I love Orange... but.... the price tag will probably scare off fans of the OR15 (yes, I know there are differences and UK vs China) but the OR15 is $750... on the flip side,... the OR30 is priced fairly close to the Rockerverb 50. So, if you like the OR15, it will coat you over $1k more for the OR30 and if you like the OR30, it will only cost you $350 more for the Rockerverb 50.
@ignacioibanez6138 Жыл бұрын
If price if your comparison point then you’re buying watts, this is a totally different amp compared to the rockerverb and the OR15, totally different preamp and this ine have tube rectifier and choke with totally different gain structure and stages, so Apples and oranges here, this being an Apple on the Orange history , very different to the other Orange amps
@Darth.Shredder Жыл бұрын
@@ignacioibanez6138 If it's "totally different" than the OR15 then why call it an OR30? All I'm saying is the Rockerverb offers much more - not just wattage but features (2 channels, spring reverb) and the OR15 is over $1K less than the OR30 which is still just a 1 channel head for $1800.
@alexwoolridge94aw Жыл бұрын
@darthshredder3778 I own a Rockerverb mkii 50 and am considering selling it to fund this new OR30. Single channel amps will always be the better choice in my book. Guitars have volume knobs for a reason. Nothing beats a simple good sounding amp that slays. I would also not put this OR30 in the same category as the OR15. Much different from the Rockerverb too.
@Darth.Shredder Жыл бұрын
@@alexwoolridge94aw I gigged with JCM800's in the 80's and 90's and know all about rolling off the volume knob. It was a necessity back then and by no means a "better choice" than a 2 channel amp. I personally would never downgrade from a Rockerverb to an OR30. You're not only giving up a second channel and some power, you're giving up spring reverb and the EL34 power section. EL84's are fine at lower volumes but they break up quicker and you're already limiting headroom with the lower wattage. I have a TH30 and a Mesa Mark V35 - both have a quartet of EL84's like the OR30. I like them both but neither would ever replace my Rockerverb or Marshalls and Engls.
@ignacioibanez6138 Жыл бұрын
@@Darth.Shredder you should ask first why orange called OR15 when the OR50 was first and is totally different amp of this 2, is just a model name, the OR15 have the 4 preamp gain stages of the rockerverb with EL84 closed loop fixed bias power section, the Orange OR30 is open loop cathode bias with 3 gain stages with cathode follower as Ade emsley the designer stated on the introductory video, totally different amps, don’t be fooled by the OR name, the very first orange amp OR120 is an radically different circuit for instance
