No NAMM rumors at all..?

I'd like to see a new full sized orange head made in the UK of at least 30 watts .....

The new GW magazine has the new Hinds amp in it. I can’t believe a print magazine has pics and info before the internet in this day and age. Found out about it on TGP, can’t believe no one here has any info.

Just went through both the January and February 2018 issues of GW and saw nothing. You sure it was Guitar World?

The guy said he got It in the mail yesterday. I’m guessing it’s the March issue then

Apparently the 3 different issues for Feb 2018 don't just have different covers, but different content as well. I have the Steve Vai one but I saw online the Joe Satriani one from this month has different tabs and featured articles as well. I wonder which one it's in then

Countdown clock to new gear on the Orange website now. Appears to be tomorrow at 1pm west/4pm east. Im really hoping to see at least one new EL34 powered amp. 80% of the current Orange line is all EL84.

Bass Amp running on two KT88 tubes with 8/4/2 ohm stable with blendable drive section, fx loop and transformer DI out.

Come on Orange, make my day!!

Why UK? If they're going to be using Chinese parts anyway they might as well be made China. Why would you want to pay more?

Check out the Brent Hinds thread, we have this discussion going on. Ive been told the only difference between the UK made Oranges and the Chinese made Oranges are the transformers, which I have a difficult time believing. If thats true, that means we are basically paying a huge premium to have it made by British people rather than Chinese people

I do know that Brent will be there, Glenn Hughes, and Stephen Carpenter from Deftones.... as well as a ton of PBR's.

Plus I think I may go to the Extreme show Saturday night... I think we have some front row seats.

Electronic components are not mainly made in China?

Not true or at least not the same parts are used in UK made amps.

I certainly remember Ade being interviewed stating the quality of components was better in UK made amps and it was n't just the transformers .

It's possible they use better components, but most electronic passive components are highly likely to be manufactured in China.
