I'm currently playing my 70s OR120 overdrive through a Marshall 1960B cabinet with Celestion 75 watt speakers (GT-75 something or others) ... man, do those speakers stink. I realized this after buying a '66 Fender Champ with an absolutely amazing Jensen alnico in it. Now I want to build an open back...

From what I've learned, it's really a crap-shoot to date an Orange. Supposedly, no "Overdrive" amps were made before 1976, but my amp's serial number puts it in the 1974-75 range, AND it has an attached power cord. Maybe it was a prototype? Who knows. I don't really care anymore. I just know that I'...

If it's relevant, I just got rid of my 80s JCM 800 in favor of my 70s OR120 overdrive. The Orange overdrive is just more saturated with harmonics and the bottom end is just plain amazing. I run my gain and volume at 6 and put a Tube Screamer on the front end (not that it really needs it, I just like...

Saw SNL a couple weeks ago and Jimmy Eat World was playing. It was nice to see one of their guitarists jammin' with an old Orange 120 overdrive. A friend of mine used to be in a band that shared a practice space with Jimmy, and he said it was really strange to see that same amp in a much different v...

I recently bought a '74 or '75 Orange OR120. So far, it's all honeymoon ... I love this amp (it kicks the crap out of my Marshall JCM 800). Anyway, I've got some questions. On the far left, there is a large knob that switches between several settings. While I notice obvious differences in the sound ...
