Urgent Recall Notice – DO NOT IGNORE

Orange Amplification
Tiny Terror Head

The defect is in the transformer and may be unsafe. If you have any units in stock it is important that they are returned to Orange Music for modification immediately. Korean built units are not affected by this notice.

Gee, that sucks doesn't it? Thanks for posting this!

brettk7 · 11-26-2008, 09:41 PM

That's horrible.

I knew there had to be something wrong with the Tiny Terror hahaha

Boleskinehouse · 11-26-2008, 10:00 PM

Shit! I got mine in May.

Serial no. L080110012

brettk7 · 11-26-2008, 10:00 PM

Damn dude... Please tell how they take care of this!

Boleskinehouse · 11-26-2008, 10:03 PM

Risk of electric shock while you're playing?!? Or is it if you open the thing up?

***b-squared*** · 11-26-2008, 10:03 PM

I made this a sticky...

you may want to call your dealer, if you have it registered with orange you should receive a letter or e-mail on how to get your fixed if it is the china version.

Shawn Fate · 11-27-2008, 10:53 AM

If you own a Tiny Terror head please check the serial number on the rear of the amplifier.

The affected models are clearly marked ‘Made in PRC’ and have serial numbers as follows;

L070910001 to L070910989
L071110101 to L071110854
L080210001 to L080210986
L080410001 to L080410406
L080810001 to L080810964

These were made for the EU market but some could have their way to other parts of the world.

Boleskinehouse · 11-27-2008, 07:36 PM

Cool! Looks like mine is out of the woods for now.

AXE · 11-27-2008, 07:46 PM

yoo no rike amprifyah ???

diceman · 11-27-2008, 07:57 PM

I didn't realize they were Asian made. I don't doubt that they rock F'n hard, but they seem a little overpriced for a Chinese amp... My Laney GH50L was only a couple hundred more, and is British!

I'm just thinking out loud. I'd really like to play a TT sometime - no Orange dealers around here, though...

spacebubby · 11-27-2008, 08:11 PM

Orange is British, but the TT are made in China...like some of the solid state Marshalls are made in either China or Korea.

jo07 · 11-27-2008, 08:16 PM

now I know why they call them tiniTERROR

Right, but for the price I was certain that it was one of their Brit made models...

Ours was half the price for the TT than what we paid for the Marshall heads. It wasn't that bad, IMO....not for an all tube amp anyway. I didn't know they were made in China...but Bole did.

Shawn Fate · 11-27-2008, 08:50 PM

some were made in korea.

FennRx · 11-27-2008, 11:50 PM

are any of them made in the USA? i asked a guy on ebay if his TT was Korean or Chinese. he told me it was USA.

Synaptic · 11-30-2008, 06:47 AM

If I had a TT that was recalled I'd ask them to just send me a partial refund so I could put the money towards a Mercury Magnetics upgrade transformer set. That's the closest to a US-made Tiny Terror you're gonna get.

Tuxedo Kaz · 12-02-2008, 01:28 AM

According to Orange only the Oranges sold in the UK and EU are affected by this recall.

Tuxedo Kaz · 12-02-2008, 01:29 AM

>.> Or so I heard.

SFK · 12-05-2008, 04:08 PM

Mine is Korean. I guess I'm ok.

Torren61 · 01-02-2009, 09:57 PM

Buy American or British or make your own.

The TT is phenomenal. Chinese or not, that is a lot of amp for the money. Period.

Not to derail thread, but when I found out that the Vox AC50 CP2 was not made in the UK just like the AC30 and AC15, I was totally turned off primarily because of the price. If they charged the $$$ befitting a Chinese-made amp, then yes...if its quality, sounds good, etc. But to command a price that's usually asked for USA made or UK made amplifiers, well...isn't that something else?

VintageModern1 · 01-25-2009, 03:19 PM

Haha, that really sucks
luckily im a marshall player,
but orange amps really turn heads
there so orange!!

Deftone · 01-29-2009, 07:28 AM

The Krank Rev Jr. is made in the USA.

Horse · 04-16-2009, 02:44 PM

where any TT combo amps affected?

Tuxedo Kaz · 04-16-2009, 03:58 PM

No. This recall came before the combos were around.

shark · 05-09-2009, 03:33 AM

the korean models just glow in the dark
