You'd think they would incorporate a little boost circuit of sorts that would do what the screamer is doing, but nope!!! By golly Orange makes em the same way they did in the 70s so .... TRADITION! darn it I agree with you, they should incorporate a 'boost'. Because they don't really make them at all like they did in the 70s. If they did they'd probably cost 4 grand. They were louder and cleaner back then with one (1) channel and rarely a master volume. This post has been edited by klasaine: Nov 19 2014, 12:51 AM -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

They were and still are on the 'darker' side of tone but that's about the only thing that's similar between todays Orange Amps and the ones from yesteryear.
A lot of guys really dig them and sound great through them. I never really got on them though either. For the louder, tighter, higher gain thing I'm a Marshall (type) fan. I like the tight attack of a non MV marshall. This post has been edited by klasaine: Nov 19 2014, 02:44 AM -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

High price doesn't mean high gain. Not that that's a bad thing.

Try the TH series, they're a lot higher gain out of the box, probably more your thing.
The AD/Rockerverb series are more about turning up loud and rocking it old school. -------------------- http://www.six-string-samurai.com - Gear reviews for the terminally GAS-afflicted.
