I prefer to have my tone controls mounted inside my control dashboard installed on my arm. Next to my atomic self-destruction system activator button.

Yeah, i agree with what's been said.

I recently picked up a laney lionheart head, and that's got its controls top mounted. when its up high, not being able to see the controls is a problem.

on a combo, i'da thought they were quite low down though?

i'd have to agree they look better to me, with the top mounted controls.

I think the design is called blood orange :mrgreen:
I think the new controls look a bit strange bit i think it's great to set it on the live at a gig.

definately would prefer on top controls to out the front type easyer to set and you get to feel like your settings are secret lol. Blood Orange not will be my cup o tea but hell it will be someones, again is this orange branching into metalists who want an angryer colour? but hey more options means pleasing more people and theres nothing wrong with that. Id quit complaining and analysing let orange modernise with the placement of the controls and tone objective.
