Welcome to Orange:

Thank you for choosing Orange.

Since 1968, when the company was founded, Orange Amplification has been researched and developed by the guitarist for the guitarist. Today, with a team of the industry’s most dedicated engineers, we continue to push back the boundaries of conventional amp design to bring you our latest range of heads and combos.

Our commitment to quality control, construction and craftsmanship has been long established, and each amplifier passes through a rigorous test procedure before shipping. We are confident that you will be delighted with your new purchase and that it will provide you many years of enjoyment and reliability.

The warmth, tonal quality and rich harmonics generated by our amplifiers cannot be reproduced by artificial means. Many guitarists have reached the same conclusion: there is nothing as good as an analogue amplifier!

This booklet contains valuable technical and safety information. Please take the time to read these instructions as the information will enhance the performance and longevity of your amplifier.
