Re: AD30 Single Channel

I was looking on the back of my AD30 Single channel head and the serial number is , OR30H 142/300 . Was there an original batch of 300 amps and this is number 142 ? Anything special about this amp having this serial number ? Possibly the 142nd amp made in march 2000. Built by Trace Elliot. Ok , tha...

Re: Help Me Find the right Orange

I assume if you've owned your amp that long that you've changed tubes in it a few times already, correct? Have you experimented with different types of give different gain characteristics? Using a tube known for early breakup and higher gain may be all you really need, and not pedals. http://www.tu...

Re: Help Me Find the right Orange

I wouldn't recommend the OR15 to you either. I believe you'd be happier with a RV50, TH30 or TV50. The thing is that most of the music you listed are higher gain and tighter than what your AD30 can offer. It may be that with treble boosting OD pedal, you may get close to what you need with your AD3...

Re: Help Me Find the right Orange

Honestly... ditching your AD30 for a OR15 is quite the downgrade in amps. I've owned the AD30 (twin channel) and have played the OR15, and although it has more gain, it just lacks the balls and beef of the larger wattage amps. In comparison, it was thinner, more hissy and empty sounding. It's not b...

Re: Help Me Find the right Orange

Is there any good recordings I could hear with the OR15H ? Do you guys have links to any really good sound clips so I could hear it some more ? I'm getting hesitant on selling my AD30 , only because its harder to find if I do sell it and end up missing it . It has such a BIG sound , I'm afraid the O...

I don't want a modern tone . I do like Ride The Lighting ,

Re: Help Me Find the right Orange

OR15 will work if you don't need cleans. I don't need clean and I'm used to a one channel since thats what my AD30 is . So the OR15H should be the one to get ? I've heard it on youtube videos and I think its the sound I'm after , just a more modern than the AD30 , higher gain sound . I guess simila...
