The Orange OR30: louder than you think
Don't let the 30W rating fool you - the Orange OR30 is one of the loudest amps out there. This amplifier delivers sound pressure readings similar to a 100W amp in the test room, providing both quantity and quality of classic Orange tone in one unbeatable package. No matter if you're playing in a large venue or practising at home, the OR30 is guaranteed to impress with its colossal volume capacity.
But the OR30 is not just about loudness. With its tube rectifier, the amp provides a super-playable attack and release that makes playing feel effortless. The gain goes from clean to crunch to roaring saturation, making it suitable for players of all styles. The OR30 also features an innovative presence control designed to work at any volume, allowing players to roll off the treble on the tone stack and add presence, or vice versa, to get two totally different tones. If you want an amp that's both versatile and powerful, look no further than the Orange OR30.
The bright switch: the key to tone-shaping possibilities
The Orange OR30's three-way bright switch is a game-changer for guitar players looking for versatile tone-shaping options. This innovative feature offers a clean-slate pedal platform, fine-treble boost, or broad-treble fizz for laser-like cut-through. With the switch in the neutral centre position, the OR30 becomes a perfect pedal platform, allowing your distortion and overdrive effects to augment the amp's tone. Flick it leftwards for a fine treble boost or switch to the right for a broader treble that sharpens your tone, resembling the best classic rock amps of yesteryear. The bright switch provides endless possibilities for players to create their own signature sound, making the OR30 a must-have for any serious guitarist.
From rhythm to lead: the foot-switchable volume boost on the orange OR30
Switch from rhythm to lead with just a tap of your toes. The OR30 comes equipped with a footswitch for fluid toggling between two different volume settings, so you launch straight into full-throttle solos without missing a beat. Even better, you can use it to give a jump in wattage for your leads, with a choke and a huge output transformer offering more perceived clean headroom, ensuring your tone stays cleaner as you get louder.
Cross-line presence control: a unique feature of the orange OR30
The Orange OR30's cross-line presence control is a unique feature that sets it apart from other amps on the market. Unlike many presence controls that are based on negative feedback, meaning they're only noticeable at high volumes, the OR30's cross-line presence control works at any volume. This innovative technology allows players to roll off the treble on the tone stack and add presence, or vice versa, to get two totally different tones.
