Hi guys,

I have a great OR80R combo which I'm told is around 1975/76 - good condition - some small blemishes due to gig wear and tear, great sound and very loud. I bought it in about 1995, but also have an OTR head and cab which I use a lot more for gigging (Bought new in about 1997)so the combo is hardly used. Does anyone know what price these beauties go for? Am toying with the idea of selling it and buying a vintage Fender Twin - am I mad? :evil: Have seen two OR80R's on ebay over the last year going for about £800 and £1000..................any advice or ideas?

Paul

I think you've answered your own question. If that's what they've sold for on ebay, that's probably what you could expect it to sell for.

Ebay is probably the way to go for you for that... since it's your first post, I just want to let you know that there's no buying or selling in this forum FYI.

thanks and welcome to the forum!

Keep the old Orange! Better than a twin IMO. If you have to, sell the OTR but keep the oldie!!!

hi beatnik devil im afraid im gonna have to disagree with simon here, (sorry simon) personelly i think your or80 combo is completely worthless and should be forwarded to my address imediately for disposal.

alternatavly i will collect it from your address for the small charge of £30 (mates rates;))

glad i could help
