hi everyone

thinking of buying a crush amp 15 (w/o reverb

i understand it's made in korea, is the build inferior to those made in uk?

Is it worth it? Do you know where I could get sound samples please?

thanks!!

Hey grognon,
I can't tell you much about the crush 15, but I'm currently using a crush 10 to do some recording. It has great tone and is a LOUD 10 WATTS. It's louder than some of the 30 watt tube amps I've played through. It is deceptive with its single channel, 2 cascading/inline gain circuits, 3 band eq, and master. The two gains give this thing ridiculous versatility. It's nice to have something so small that you can just hook-up and play with and change tones so easily. I play BLUES, jazz, metal, and classic rock. I own a Gibson ES-335, Custom shop Fender strat, and a Ernie Ball/Music Man Axis and they all sound great through this little powerhouse. It is built solid and isn't inferior because it's a solid state amp. If taken care of properly it will last a lifetime and perform well for practice sessions, jammin' with your freinds, or recording. To all the naysayers out there that seem to have an opinion about a product they've never tried...get a life or better yet get a real job that will allow you to spend a little cash to try new things before you TRY to give advise! No it's not a tube amp with 100 WATTS melting the paint off the walls. That's not what it was intended to do. Great product,great price($99 or less)

Too bad they don't have a face for laughing. I agree with both of your points. Both valid. If you love to play, you gotta play with what you got.

what kind of recording are you doing with the crush 10????
stop an hour early and you can afford 2 more...<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

louder? interesting. i always thought a watt is a watt is a watt.
i dont know...although i have noticed this to a small degree in some tube amps.

i've played one of these little amps and i think they sound pretty good and you can get a new for 79 bucks so I don't see how you can go wrong with a crush

I think Orange have excellent gear.Once you get your hands on
one. you can go wrong with the crush 10 for a$100 bucks
I hear they sound awesome. (read harmony central)
I'm getting one sent to me Free from orange.(long story)
I also bought the PPC4x12 Cab and it rocks. heavy (120 lb)
but I love it, Got a VHT 50CL HD hook up to it.
I can't wait till I get my crush 10 and check it out.
It's 12"x12"x5"(HxWxD) so you can take it on trips
cuz it's so portable. I do love valves, but hey if the
amp is free and sound great. what the hey.I say bring it
on.also I am an Orange nut.
