Just wondering, I'd like to get a tiny or dual terror with 1 12 or a 2 12 cabinet.

Does anyone have one? I'd like to hear one with a les paul running through it :slash:

The Tiny Terror ran through a 2x12 cab with a Paul is a bad ass combo.

I have an Orange 4x12 cabinet and I have used all of the Orange heads pretty extensively. Even some of the Custom Shop ones.

The Dual Terror won't be out until September though :)

Well there you go haha.

I think the DT is going to be a huge hit. It is switchable between 30, 15, and 7 watts.. Has two channels and it is pretty damn cheap!

If you're just a bedroom player ... get the TT
If you're a active gigging player ... get the Rocker 30
If you're a stadium rocker ... get the Thunderverb 200 :laugh2::laugh2:

With either one of the two, you will be really happy

I owned a TT head. Great little amp!

I also REALLY love the Rockerverb 100. That amp is just spectacularly cool for leads.

My caveat is that pretty much everyone despises the effects loops on their amps.

Hey BS - I just posted this in another thread so cut & pasted to this one. You have a Traditional Pro from memory? or a Plus? Whatever I know you have a Traditional of some sort. Anyway C&P post below with my Traditional+ and TT Combo:


I'd go for the TT combo cos:

1: It's a compact little combo you can take anywhere;
2: The Celestion is matched to the amp and sounds great;
3: It look's like an Orange;
4: It's loud as all fark!

Here's a mic'd demo of the TT combo at the settings in the pic below. Keep in mind it is mic'd so toned, gained & volumed down accordingly and it sounds a tonne better in the flesh. I'm tellin ya these things crank, but if you're after cleans maybe look somewhere else.

PS: no feedback on this cos the volume is so low for the mic - you can get mega clean Class A feedback on these babies no problem at all.

I think in the Orange factory in China. I have NEVER seen or herd of any quality complaints on Chinese Orange. For the record.

If you're a stadium rocker ... get the Thunderverb 200 :laugh2::laugh2:

Eh... I wouldn't go that far. The Rocker 30 is simply a better amp, and generally... It isn't any louder than a TT. It has an EQ adjustable gain/master volume, and a dedicated clean (well... Natural) channel.

The Thunderverb 200 is for HEAVY players. Not neccasarily arena-rockers (it has a built-in power attenuator ya know), but it is great for metal and generally any kind of crunchy rock n' roll :D

Fixed it for ya ;)

The RV series' effects loop works fine. I used one rather extensively and I do not have one complaint.

Simple question.

Whoa kemosabi, I wasn't on :)

I played the Epi Custom Classic through a Rockerverb.. 50? (maybe a 30) the other day, with an Orange 2x12, and OMFG...

Amazing sound. Even the guy who owns the amp was impressed with the Epi's sound. He plays an Ernie Ball and a Parker Fly through it. Odd combo, but sounds damn good. :D

Chorange? hahaha

I'm not a big Marshall fan, however.. I do like my JCM alot. Even though, I have been going back and forth with myself about selling it.

I'm not for sure what you mean, by 'custom-made.' But, sometimes they will do different tolex colors, etc.

Custom made, like your own special colour with different speakers, maybe even a custom head unit.

I love my Orange, the cleanest clean, and sustainiest sustain
in high gain, but it does have a different
Tone than Marshalls, so i have them both for different
sounds.
I like my Les Paul with my Orange, and my Strat with my Marshall VM
