Amoun,

There are no bias pot on these. They are fixed bias, but it is not adjustable! I have more or less the same amp (pics here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/22488102@N ... 005879389/) and it too lacks a bias pot.

Just out of curiosity: Are you sure it is a '72? My OR120 has a plexi faceplate, and the same guts as far as I can see, and from all my research online I have found out that it is a '72 (same as me...) or '73.

You fellas and your vintage amps. That amp is 15 years older than I am. That amp could almost be my father.

Haha beautiful find, man. I look forward to the day of my next Orange purchase!

roadcase is great, no idea who made it, the chunky corners look to have been added later, good fit width wise but it will fit a much deeper head than the pix only, fits the modern matamp size heads
