Re: Post your favourite gig pic

Someone shot these a few nights ago. Told me he's "just getting into photography". I thinks he's already there. http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/429460_2603260443359_1310282212_32064115_1555438196_n.jpg http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/398598_2584264728478_1310282212_3205...

...And while we're doing market research, as a current Orange owner with plans to purchase more in the near future, I would also like to see something like this. I'd love to see the AD140 back in the line.

Re: Announcing the Jim Root Signature #4 Terror Head and 212 Cab

I always feel mildly embarrassed that the only famous person i know of who uses the same amp as be for guitar is from Slipknot! I'm semi-famous and I use the same amp as you. You can now hold your head high. Beautiful guitar, by the way. I think the graphics look really cool on this. It would look ...

Welcome! I'm a huge fan of belly button lint. I also see the Virgin Mary in my Egg McMuffin™ every morning at the McDonald's™ drive-thru.

Re: Tubes for ad30htc

Thanks for posting that. I'm gonna order a set and give 'em a go. Has anyone else here tried these in their AD?

Are you running EH 12AX7s slim? I haven't tried those.

Re: Which Orange: The Who - Won't get fooled again.

Cool. Once you get a good set of tubes in it and spend a little time working the gain/eq, I think you'll be digging it. You can also add a closed back cab to the combo in the future. I'm sure someone here on the forum is running their AD with another cab and could give you some feedback. PS - If you...

Re: Which Orange: The Who - Won't get fooled again.

I thought the AD30 sounded more correct than a Vox in all honesty... it needed a little bass punch, but that's easy enough to add in the PA's EQ if you really NEED to. I'll need to spend some time with it dialing in the gain/mv to get the right smoothness to it... and I have no idea what I'm going ...

Re: Which Orange: The Who - Won't get fooled again.

Orange can't jangle? With my Gretsch Jet I can get a killer punchy jangle from my AD30 and also a pretty respectable one out of my RV50 on the clean channel with a clean boost in front of it. The RVs clean channel sounds very Bassman-like to me. When I run both heads together I can dial in a pretty ...

Re: Tubes for ad30htc

When I got my AD30 I put JJs in the power section and rectifier and all NOS RCAs in the pre. Huge difference in sound. If you don't wanna' lay out for NOS 12AX7s, try new Tung Sols or the Chinese Sinos. I've used both of those with great results. 12AX7s are cheap enough to try different brands and e...

Re: The Quireboys - all Orange backline

Sadly for me I don't enjoy their record as much as I enjoyed them live, mainly because of how they recorded it. It's done live, but seemingly with every input on the desk cranked to max. EVERYTHING is harshly overloading and distorting in a nasty way, which I guess was a deliberate stylistic decisi...

Re: The Quireboys - all Orange backline

Teddy, I'm definitely up on the Jim Jones Revue, great stuff. I don't have any JJR, but now that you've reminded me I'm of to Amazon! Also noticed a white Orange in one of their recent vids on their site. Looked like a white AD200B. That's cool to hear you met Jim, jontheld. I could never understand...
