New endorsees - some with high wtf-factor!

New endorsees for Orange - no Le Chat Noir? Shame. They ought to, the guy probably sold a few TBs with his YouTube vid, and sponsored the company bigtime anyway.


Plus, Placebo?!

The transistion Fender Twin Amp - Orange doesn't seem quite obvious to me. I doubt I'll ever spot Brain Molko with a beefy Orange stack...

The Gaslight Anthem are endorsed too, but they have been using Orange live for some time anyway. I wonder if the dry clean tone and the fat distorted tones suit their music?
I play bass.

Yeah, me too, except way more Orange amps than probably 90% of these guys!

Seems that quantity over quality of artist is what's starting to happen, this is the same thing that ESP does and I think it hurts them in terms of many artists considering their product (their best products aren't even available in the USA, Edwards, etc.) Hey Orange, I'm telling you, its not a good thing. I think it's taking away the uniqueness of owning one. If I wanted the amp that every pile of poop band on the planet used, I'd play my Marshall.

I know that ESP were meant to be stopping all LTD endorsements outside the US last year. ESP endorsements have always been saved for the BIG names though I think. Or thats what a couple of mates told me last year who were endorsed by ESP/LTD.

Unbelievable.
I thought we determined it was a different band with the same name? Either way, just a horrible name.

My bad, perhaps.
Can't say I am up to scratch on either the band or the genre!
