This is one of the best head I have ever played through. I was in the music store today and was just randomly playing their guitars on the shelf. I plugged into this thing and was blown away. Wow is all I can say. I know which head Ill be buying in the future. Great little head!!!! 5 stars all the way.

You can dial in anything from a muddy blues sound to a killer hardcore/metal sound. Very versatile...

GREAT TONE SMALL PACKAGE

As mentioned, it is well built, as well as attractive with some heft to it. The gig bag with a shoulder strap, removable padded handle cover, and the embroidered Orange stenciling protect and add to this quality product.

Have only had the head and 1 by 12 Orange cab about 1 week. Each are well built externally and are relatively heavy at about 27 and 35 pounds respectively. A head in a metal case takes some getting used to but I now find it unique and attractive.

Your general opinion of this product.
Well built and portable. Awesome tone when connected to the 1 by 12 Orange cab or my Marshall 4 by 12

Three controls for each channel make finding the sound you are looking for quick and painless with lots of possibilities at your fingertips!
Tone

From squeaky clean and piano like to snappy and bright. From classic crunch to extreme overdrive, this portable package has it all.

High gloss peint and cool looking symbols and the Orange logo add a unique, classy appearence. 1 by 12 is solid, covered by orange vinyl with black corner protectors. Looks sharp!

Perfect little gigging amp!!

The quality on this product is pretty d*mn good. Made in China, but seems to be as good as the UK made Orange amps.

I've only had it for about 4 months, but its already become my main gigging amp. Sure beats lugging around a 100watt 2x12 combo!
General
Your general opinion of this product.
I was in the market for a good lunchbox amp which included the Dual Terror, Vox Nightrain and Mesa TransAtlantic. I ended up choosing the Orange over the others due to the ease of use, two channels and of course the Orange Heritage.

One of the selling points on this for me was the three knobs per channel setup. On stage, it makes tonal changes a breeze. In the studio, it still is pretty versatile. Bottom line, its not as versatile as a "proper" EQ amp, but it more than makes up for it by being a great "gigging" amp.

Its actually a really nice looking amp in person. The pictures don't do it justice. I almost didn't want to get it because it didn't have the signature orange enclosure, but now that I actually have it, it doesn't bother me.
