Re: OR120/OTR120/AD5 on UK eBay

I'm right now really considering flying to England to get that AD5 ... would be a really great practice amp for me and I would be able to save me some money to get a bigger Orange at a later date :D
Oh, f**k ... UK bidders only ... brings a little tear to my eye :'-(

Re: So a Vox AC15 or an Orange TT Combo?

And what about using a clean boost -> overdrive -> TT with volume knob at right at the edge of it's headroom? I'm new to this stuff so forgive me my possible silliness. Though I dunno how much (or not) clean headroom the TT has. Only played it once and didn't memorise when the headroom ended. Nah, ...

Re: So a Vox AC15 or an Orange TT Combo?

I've already played 'em both and I really like the tone of both but I guess the TT is a bit of a one-trick pony. I intend to get a bigger set in the future but the amp I get now should then stay at home as a kinda practice amp. I also thought about getting a Fender because they seem to be very flexi...

So a Vox AC15 or an Orange TT Combo?

Hey guys, I'm on the edge of finally buying my first tube amp after months of wait. Though I still haven't really decided which one to get. In the end it came down to the AC15 and the TT Combo because of transportability (I'm living on the 2nd floor and my "band" plays in the 2nd floor too so anythi...

Re: Need some advice from you guys

... Thanks man, that helped me a lot. I probably end up waiting one month more so I can get the AD30 though I would have preferred the single channel version ... anyway I guess I try to get the head with a decent 2x12 cab to start with. PS: I don't really like Scott too ... he always seemed so jeal...

Re: Need some advice from you guys

Just found a used Rocker 30C for sale for 550€ which is a bit less than a DT would cost new and a bit less than a TT Combo too. The description says it's nearly 6 years old now, got some scratches on the tolex but has no technical problems. The footswitch is included. It comes with the original Ce...

Re: Need some advice from you guys

Second hand Oranges are pretty hard to get here in Germany ... even some of the biggest online stores won't sell much Orange besides Tiny Terror stuff :( It would probably take me a long time until I get my hands on a used AD30TC :/ Have you actually played on the terrors or are you assuming you do...

Re: Need some advice from you guys

So I guess I'll try to get my hands on a Rocker head. If I see no chance getting it I probably see if the Thunder 30H satisfies me. But what cab would be any good? I would prefer a 2x12 cab because of transportability ... I like this vintage Marshall sound but what cab and maybe what special speake...

Re: Need some advice from you guys

You could just pick up an Avatar 2x12 to match your Orange and pick your speakers. I don't personally like Vintage 30s but most people do so I can't really help you there. I prefer g12m Greenbacks myself. For a 2x12 I'd probably go the g12h30 route though. Problem is Avatar doesn't ship to Europe s...

Re: Need some advice from you guys

Did some "research" and he's using a wide variety of the bigger Orange heads. I figured the Rocker was kinda > than the Thunder because I hear a hell lot of "complains" about the Thunder being to "modern" und fitting kinda hard rock more. Is that a 1960 you're using? And what guitar do you mainly pl...

Need some advice from you guys

Hello there, I'm right now in deciding which amp I want to get. On a side note I'm mainly aiming for a classical Brit sound. I mainly play classic 60's and 70's rock and a lot of 80's and 90's alternative and indie stuff. So it's a close fight between VOX and Orange but I tend a lot more to Orange. ...
