Orange Retro 50, does anyone have one ?
Hi there good people from the Orange Amp Forum.
Does anyone have an Orange Retro 50 head ?
If so, do you have any clips ?
Utoob suck at Retro clips.
Another very important question : how much are they now ?
I can not get a price so far, does anyone know ?
Thanx to all !

Sorry for being unhelpful, but we're not allowed to discuss prices on current production Oranges! I hope someone else can help you with sound clips etcSirJackdeFuzz wrote: Another very important question : how much are they now ?

Re: Orange Retro 50, does anyone have one ?
The reason is that Orange directly own this forum and it's their wish that we don't discuss the prices of in-production models - http://forum.orangeamps.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3509 - I guess because they would rather you bought from a dealer for the standard price that all dealers have to sell for, rather than finding them second hand, or whatever. If you type it into Google you will quickly find shops and prices.SirJackdeFuzz wrote: Oh, OK, any logical reason for this ?

As you're based in South Africa, maybe you should try contacting Orange's South African distributor and asking them for your local pricing and sourcing options:

Ah, I didn't know you came to the UK - go to google.co.uk, it'll bring up all the shops which stock the amp and prices fairly near the top of your search.SirJackdeFuzz wrote:Le Chat Noir wrote:As you're based in South Africa, maybe you should try contacting Orange's South African distributor and asking them for your local pricing and sourcing options:

Re: Orange Retro 50, does anyone have one ?
I think the rules are also to prevent this forum ending up a trading forum and not a discussion forum.Le Chat Noir wrote:The reason is that Orange directly own this forum and it's their wish that we don't discuss the prices of in-production models - http://forum.orangeamps.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3509 - I guess because they would rather you bought from a dealer for the standard price that all dealers have to sell for, rather than finding them second hand, or whatever.

Don't think you'll find anyone in stock. A custom are built by Oranges Chief Engineer Ade after it's ordered and payed for, (my Retro was shipped after some of weeks). There are some samples in the thread on top here, and there is also a vid with Ade demonstrating the Customs somewhere on the net (can't remember where though.)

I do - have a listen at http://www.myspace.com/savingaimee" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; - all the rhythm parts are Retro.
and youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbG7SPsRC2c" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

ARE YOU SURE ?

just watched four Hot Leg clips and did not spot a single Orange Amp, never mind a Retro50.
