5:20 "Is it a tube amp? Oh it's a solid state..."
No advertisement could have done it better.
I remember my first will It chug
On an amp that sounds solid-state-y af...
my thought exactly, four years after you
Up!
Orange Crush was also the oldest orange soda brand sold in the US. The original recipe was a syrup made from 2 parts sugar, 1 part water, orange juice, lemon juice, orange zest, and citric acid. You pour a little syrup into a cup and spray in some seltzer to make tasty soda. But it was also a Great Depression era drink, so orange growers would convert some unsold oranges into the syrup to preserve it over the winter. You can mix it with water to make orange-ade. It's really good.
Underrated comment lol
nothing better on a hot summer day (especially with a bag of chips!).
Ok bro, next time I get a can of CO2 I'm using this recipe
Could you chug it? That's the question.
Was? You can still buy Orange Crush lol
will it chug: roland jazz chorus
Yes with a boss ml 2
my cousin had one. he also had a bunch of pedals but that sound wanted me to play guitar, Along with a mode four which is considered shit and they both blew me away at 14 years old
@@domincparenti5442 the key words here being "at 14 years old"
I've got one, the two 10's in give it a smooth low end and the built in chorus sounds gorgeous for leads or clean tones, the on board gain WILL chug with active pickups and/or an overdrive/distortion pedal.
It doesn't chug by itself but it takes distortion pedals really well
"Is it a tube amplifier ?" Says it all right there !! They hit it outta the park with these amps !!
Defo do, I have the non RT version. Was my first amp. had it years. Still my only amp lol. Only reason I bought it with my first guitar was for how it looked. Turned out to be a great purchase.
@@user-ic3kt1eq1p and yours sounds like Ola's? Im a beginner, bought a 35RT, and it sounds not at all like this video. I mean my guitar has a cheap set of $20 humbuckers, could that be it? I read a long thread where pros were telling this guy to get better amps and play for 5 years instead of buying some EMGs because that wouldn't help it sound better....I've learned like all the rhythm from 2 Metallica songs but even just open e chugs sound so crappy I'm not excited to play anymore. But I keep thinking if I adjust the knobs somehow...I bought an OD pedal, that just sounded worse. It's really disappointing.
@@gentelmanjunkie542 Hi Mate, It sounds like either you've not dialed in your knobs properly or it might be the pickups.
Firstly for Metallica stuff. I'd start with the heavier sound. Gain 9, Bass 9, A low mid of 2-4 and a low high treble 6-8. I'd then play with the dirty and clean channels for what you prefer. The humbuckers muddiness will have a big effect on whether the dirty channel or the clean channel is usable.
If you still don't improve the sound.
Now onto the subject of Humbuckers. Yeah what you've been told is only half right. IF you've got a semi decent guitar and some decent electrics then yeah. Upgrading your humbuckers etc wont give you as much impact. The return of quality of sound ratio on humbuckers are significantly less if you are starting at a decent level. Though if you have shitty ones then buying some decent ones that don't have to be massively expensive jsut a decent set. Can be a huge difference. The difference between bad and good is huge in comparison to good and more good expensive.
Take your guitar into a guitar shop. Ask if you can use some amps as your not sure your guitar sounds right. Dial in the same tone for the amp and also try an orange amp aswell. Just encase your camps not fubar'd.
Then compare it with a 700 - 1200 quid humbucker guitar. Try a gibson a PRS and an esp on the same amps with the same settings. You'll find out quick if it's your humbuckers or not after that.
I'd lay off your Overdrive pedal while testing it out. And when using the overdrive pedal humbuckers can be quite bassy and muddy. The tone knobs on OD's are usualy high cuts So you'd probably want to be at past 12 oclock on it to keep clarity of sound but not to far past it. And your drive up quite far. Volume knobs on OD's can really be a bit independent of the device and whats on your signal chain. Some will need to be really low other will need to be right up. So jsut play with that to get it right,
crush 20rt or roland cube 20gx?
@@gentelmanjunkie542 are you playing with the volume quite low? I've got the 20RT, and it blows the walls down when I turn the volume over 3, but the dirty channel doesn't really open up unless it's playing loud. The 35RT must be a lot louder.
You need to know hieroglyphics to work an orange amp
DrumRoody, I feel like that’d only apply to the Brent Hinds sig would it not?
Nah there are many more like that. I have a pics only Rockerverb mk3 combo
(psst: the words are printed right above that stuff)
DrumRoody I’ve been using them since 2013 😂
Uh, why? Everything is labeled.

I'm not a metalhead... But, as a musician, I appreciate the skill it takes to play it. I really enjoy this channel, quite a bit. Keep up the good work! 👍
Have you ever heard Dragonforce: Through the Fire and the flames? Now that is a very hard song. Would highly recommend giving it a listen.
YEARS of building up stamina. That's the only secret man. LOTS of starting slow an going faster each time
Just got our son this amp for Christmas, excited that this amp can chug!
Nice. Good looking out for your kid to make sure it chugs. Most parents wouldn’t take the time to do that so props to you. Tell your kid to KEEP SHREDDING 🤟🏻🤟🏻
Lucky son right there
That's so cool. Lucky kid. Iam thinking about getting this myself.
That’s awesome!🤘👍
I was thinking of having one of the Orange amps but right now I have a Fender Mustang LT-25 which sounds killer actually.
If he ever gets board with it, I suggest maybe getting a few pedals for him as well.
A good tube screamer, or a good over drive will definitely make things very interesting for him.
An overdrive is like ketchup I use it weather I need it or not.
I'm the opposite and need to practice with more gain
@@alexmurphy5289 When I am using high gain I still use my overdrive as a clean boost.
My overdrive doesn't turn off for anything
No one could've said it better
*whether

OLA.... YES, ORANGE CHINA LINES OF AMPS.....NO!
Professional Sound Engineer: Test. Test. 1. 2. Test.
Ola: EEeeuuuurrrgggh! Oh, it's on.
I just bought my first ever guitar at 49 years old. Will I ever be able to chug? I certainly hope so. 😎 🧓
Practice every freakin' day. I didn't buy my first one until age 47.
Yup, I believe in you. Remember that it's not always the gear. You can sound great with a cheap Ibanez GIO or Squier HH strat and an Orange combo amp
@@jesseclaborn749 uhh yea except pantera
@@vladionescu8222 there are a lot heavier bands out there though
@@AS-bu9rw yea heavy chug chug such drop q much wow, dime played heavy while having feel and soul no other guitar player will ever have
I have the 35RT. Can confirm it is stupid loud. Sounds pretty decent with some moderate dirt for a blues rock type sound. And it does have one of the better sounding solid state chug tones. Good all around practice amp.
I have the same. Wampler dracarys into it definitely gets ya there.
I too have that amp and hell yeah its loud. I run a preamp always on with it to get a little more life out of the tone, but it is great on its own, especially for the price .
I'm getting one, you just convinced me. Thank you.
@@B_Chanslor I've had mine for a year now and if you have a decent pedal setup the FX loop is very powerful and can give you some killer gig-ready tones all across the spectrum.
@Puke Grenade Same here with the WTF looks, especially once they see I run a Metal Zone through the FX loop lmao. It does sound good though
Haha ! Really liking these will it chug videos.. keep em coming Ola !!
Killer shirt. I just bought this amp.
i guess Im asking randomly but does anyone know a method to log back into an instagram account??
I stupidly lost my account password. I love any tricks you can give me!
@Gavin Titan instablaster ;)
lol at these mfking bots tryin so hard
What the hell? Idk you played guitar! That’s awesome to know!
@poshi i meant the first two comments.
Sounds damn good for a 1x8 solid state practice amp. Would make a killer home/practice amp for someone. Great Job Ola!
I own a Crush 20 RT and I’ve been using it for all music. It’s very versatile definitely subverts expectations. I use it for ADTR, Killswitch Engage, Muse, Pink Floyd, Parkway Drive and even more. This amp can really do anything even though it doesn’t look like it delivers as much as it does. Pair it with an Ibanez Tubescreamer and you got yourself Mesa tones for under $500. Highly recommend. If anyone wants to know what I have my amp settings at to get my sound I can provide that👍🏻
MattPavittTV I’m really thinking of buying one actually. I read some very good reviews on this little orange chugger (hahaha).
I would very much love to know what your settings are!
I have both tubescreamer and this amp, but I can't get a good tone. Can you provide me your settings? Thanks.
I would be interested in your setting as well
Kevin Koerber ay everyone. On my amp I have the bass and the treble set all the way up and the mids set in the middle for my main tone. On my tubescreamer I literally just have the beast turned all the way up on all knobs. The tone is great. For me at least on my Chapman ML3 and Manson
I just played an Orange Crush combo at Guitar Center a few days ago. It sounded surprisingly good for solid state. Distortion was pretty delicious albeit British type. I liked it. I think solid state is A OK.
I am traveling and bought the older version of this at a pawn shop to use while in a hotel. I am totally impressed by the quality and volume of this little amp! It’s a beast!
I actually thought those were some pretty convincing studio recording type tones. I have heard of many rumors over the years of Marshall amplifiers and the like lining the stages of rock concerts around the world, while some little solid state combo sitting on a chair being mic’d providing all the sound. This video makes me more firmly believe it!
Yo Ola, see if you can get a Vox to chug
Voxvalvetronix will for sure. That was my first modelling amp.
@@matttaylor1449 I own one. The dual rec and mk3 channels definitely can chug. Everything else on it is more suited for rock/blues
There’s a lot of metal bands who have recorded albums with 4x10 cabs. Smh.
Vox AC4TV
@@LunarSyndicateZ I have this amp, I wouls like to hear ola make it chug
Maaaaaan! you really can make any amp sound amazing! keep at it Ola!
Cheers from Mexico!
I'm not really into metal, but I play guitar and your videos are some of the best and most entertaining on UA-cam. I love this channel, keep up the excellent work.
Had to sell my 35rt, been through a few amps since and now I’m finally back to this one. I’ll never stray from the path again
I bought this amp last week and the first thing I did was look if you had tested it! Happy it's Ola approved!!!
Its 1:07 in San Antonio TX. Always a pleasure to hear my alarm for a new Ola video
1:07 am
Hey I’m in San Antonio too. Lol
Me too!
Hell ya San Antonio 🤘🏽
In San Antonio as well!
Those tones really remind me of that 80's metal sound... Cool little amp!
That little amp actually sounds pretty damn good. I wasn’t expecting that at all.
I'm saving up for the crush 60 myself. Gonna make some high quality doom with it and cant wait!
Rip and tear
By the way, I stumbled across this and now I am a happy subscriber and I can’t wait to see more of your content! Especially the CHUGGIN 🤘🏻😬
I had the Orange Crush 35RT and I can tell you now…for being a practice amp or just a good little apartment amp…you can’t go wrong for the price. The fact that it sounds close to a tube amp while being solid state really shows how awesome orange really is. My only gripe is it gets a little muddy and over saturated sounding at higher volume. I plugged my metal muff into the front of it and it cleans up quite well. Very good amp for the price honestly.
Should do a will it chug Korg Miku episode!
Dalton Rothacher A thousand times yes.
Agreed
Amazing
Absolutely brilliant idea, why didn't I think of that?
For some reason I see or hear Miku everywhere. The pedal gods are speaking.
Really love the sound of an amp chugging. Puts a sinister smile on my face and follow it with a hell yeah. Never did understood why some people call it djent.according to my office mate its the sound.but all i hear are bone crushing chugs from my amps.
This is hilarious, and a great review of the amp on top of it. Kudos, you earned this sub
These are the best solid state amps imo. I have the CR35RT. Oh btw the RT stands for reverb/tuner. Great video Ola. Keep on CHUG'N.
I mean, isn't orange kinda made for metal and rock tones.
@Nik Reynolds Doom metal and Stoner rock is the shit my guy. In a nutshell it's basically Black Sabbath inspired metal. You should most definitely check out Uncle Acid and The Deadbeats they are probably one of my favorites. or just go for the classic Black Sabbath, can't go wrong with them.
@Nik Reynolds check out Kyuss, Fu Manchu, and Acid King. They're one of the greats
@@LysergicJesus Also check out my friends Pentagram, the Skull, Iron Man (RIP Al Morris)
🍊 nailed it with the Crush Series. I've played em all and settled on the Crush 12 as my home amp. Juicy Cleans and Gnarly Overdrive when needed. Can't go wrong with these little guys. I think their secret is it's analog and not digital/modeling. I had to suffer through just about every modeling amp out there even the $500-600 ones before I found the Crush 12 as the amp I needed and sound I was chasing and... It's only $89!!!
Dude! I love your will it chug series! It's what we needed to see on YT
So I know there are tons of videos about the micro terror out there, but, will it chug!? and will the micro dark?
As a practice amp, this is an awesome little thing. I've had one for three years, and I've been really surprised by how good it sounds. I would love to one day see you do another Orange, maybe the Rockverb? That would be awesome.
Request for Will It Chug: the PIGNOSE 7-100, legendary one-knob battery powered amplifier as used by Frank Zappa in the 1970's.
Thanks for the Cab Sim defeat suggestion, Ola. Next time I'm bored at GC I'll give one of these a whirl.
Hey brother, youve taught me a shit ton regarding metal and how to chugg. Thank you. I'm not sure if you get thanked enough, but from me, i thank you for being one of my musical inspirations.
57 seconds was the exact second chugging was achieved, Mr. Englund.
I actually have this amp, I also bought a FAB metal pedal to see how bad it would sound, and surprisingly, it sounded really good, like really really good! It sounds better with the amp on the dirty channel but with the distortion down but with a distortion or overdrive pedal on
Hey man! Good video! I've always loved the sound of Orange amps, both physical and virtual, they have fizz and crunch that is unique to them, sure its not a OOMPHy chug, but its crunchy af!
Just picked this up and I too was amazed how well it did! This little amp has great tone and sound! Can’t wait to try....The Terror!
Bought one of these things a month ago just to play a little metal in the bedroom, I was amazed at how loud that little 8" speaker can get. I honestly think this thing is hard to beat in the sub-$200 price range.
how loud is it really? will it be dominated by a drum in a studio/room if I ever want to gig with friends?
@@krmn3387 I haven't personally tested it with a drummer but I'm honestly not sure if it would get drowned out by a loud drum kit or not. You might consider the 35 watt model instead, it's like $80 more but would probably cut through the mix better. The 20 watt is pretty loud but again that's in the context of a bedroom setup with some hot pickups and like one pedal.
Although if you just want something crazy loud for not a lot of money, look around for a used Peavey Bandit 112 or Special 130/150. Those things will blow out the windows at your local dive bar.
@@zackakai5173 Thank you so much!
I'm using a Crush 20 non RT (RT was twice the price for tune and reverb...) and that's ridiculously loud. The gain is insane as well...
Really enjoying this little combo.
I have this amp. Dirty is Orange worthy; but clean is crystal clear and lovely round. Excellent amp; I bought it when I didn't need it just because it sounded so good. Very light to carry around. Stupid loud, so much I can use it as a vocal monitor on small venues (full band, punk rock). I never turn it upwards of 2 at home. I bet it could do full band jams no problem.
And yeah, controls placement are but a pain. Power switch on the back, inverted EQ knobs, input jack on the right, gain and clean volume knobs close together while dirty volume on the other side of the universe... Fortunately, that's about all there is to hate about this amp.
I friggin love this series
Oh wow. This sounds just like an early 90s teal stripe peavey audition 110 I used to record demo tapes with. Amazing distortion
Funniest guitarist I’ve ever seen, keep making videos the way you do, made me laugh, THANKS!!
3:40
*Me seeing someone burp out of confusion for the first time*
Thanks Ola 🤔👌
Pretty sure it’s cause he inhaled dust off and his body was trying to release the chemicals lol
Too many coffee on an empty stomach. At least that's what happen to me if I skip my lunch.
This sounded much better than expected!!!
Also, Orange amps have always had a decent amount of gain to their amps. A little on the warm fuzzy side, but for being amps some what geared towards doom, and 60's or 70's classic metal, these amps are pretty cool.
Sounds very lovely. It makes me happy, and feel really good. It's like a warm, "fuzzy" hug from Ola.
Peavey bandit 112. Will it chug. Overdrive in front. Use the high gain channel. Unless you hate all midrange frequencies... then use the modern setting
That's a badass little amp I want one!!
Orange Amps are really great. I dont have the exact amp, but I have an Orange Crush 12 watt I recently got. Very versatile! Sounds impressive like damn
RT is for REVERB & TUNER. I have the non RT version. Speakers a beast for it's size and price. Very versatile to.
Please dont dustoff your mouth ...lol 🏴☠️
Maybe there could be a new series named " Will it burp?", where Ola tries different kinds of contained air and finds out how to boost the burping by swallowing air.
Womp Womp Womp Womp Womp
It’s amazing how Ola is in one of the heaviest bands on earth and makes some of the most aggressive music known to man yet, he’s actually just a really cool and down to earth guy.
There are much heavier bands than the haunted or feared man. Don't get me wrong they are pretty heavy but there is much heavier out there.
Gordon C
Notice I said one of the heaviest bands on earth. I’m fully aware that there are other bands out there. I like variety. There’s nothing wrong with variety. I was referring more to my opinion that Ola is just a pretty cool guy.
Always gotta have that one-upper annoying kid in class going "Um, actually..." and proceeding to incorrect anything anyone says.
Ola is rad. His band is heavy. Gordon is that annoying kid. Rock on dude.

Spot on! Rock on!
So you assume guys who play metal are evil bastards?
I first heard the Orange amp at Guitar Center. The amps provided for trying out guitars were all Orange. The sound was insanely awesome. I ended up buying the 20 for my house and love it.
Chug rhymes with fuck yeah! Great vids, my man... AND, those Solar guitars are fuggin sick! SKOL!!
1:18 I love the chugs. This will be my first amp I'll be buying hopefully soon. Fingers crossed my wife lets me. My mate let me borrow if Fender strat until I can buy my own guitar this August for my birthday. I only been playing for one month and I love it. Cheers Ola for the Chug review
Maybe your wife could buy you a guitar for your birthday ? And ya, buy the amp. If it sounds good here, it'll sound even better live. You will love it
I hope u got that guitar and amp bro✌️
My wife did buy me a Jackson Dinky guitar and 30w Laney amp
hell yeah my man, what a great family
now is my first amp
"I think the distortion sounds a bit dirty" ... must've forgot the knob said ... "Dirty"
Know this is an older video but thanks for doing a review on that particular amp. Just ordered one myself. Keep up the awesome work man!
Ive had this amp for two weeks now and I’ve watched a ton of reviews on this amp before I decided to buy it. Hands down probably one of the best amps on the market in this price range.
I come back to this video all the time, it's fuckin hilarious. I love Olga.
What you really need to chug is an ice cold NUKA COLA QUANTUM!!!!
Great video sir. Great shirt sir.
Does it chug? Starts chugging before the timer starts.
I am late to the game with Orange in general. I knew lots of sludgy and doomy bands I like use them, but I got my first one, a Brent Hinds Terror I run through 2x12 Creambacks, not too long ago. Now any time I run into one in real life I notice that they all sound good, no matter which model it is. Even this little "practice" amp sounds fantastic. Good job, Orange. Keep it up!
I’m actually buying one today and this vid has concreted my purchase
I have this same amp and it is also great for playing acoustic guitar thru it. Nice and clear and full for a small amp.
4:30 new notification sound
4:08 yeah! 🤘
3:24 I immediately reminded, from that short little chug riff, of "At The Gates Of Sleep" - Insomnium
Wow that amp is called orange crush? One of the best sodas on my personal top ten list
Yooo straight take a hit of that air duster man. Like a solid 2 seconds. It'll blow your mind.
Stoners have a lot of advice for when you wanna get high but have no money for weed or acid.
HE’LL YEHA BÖRTHER
The next episode of Will it chug using Yamaha THR10X sounds interesting ✌️
Randy Scheel does it fit for metal?
It takes some tweaking, but I think it sounds really good for metal.
I have the Yamaha thr, I'm trying to get some awesome Doom tones out of it. But a lot of it just sounds like a wet blanket. Any suggestions
I have that amp and a joyo distortion metal pedal and I sound pretty close to dimebag. Sometimes I’ll use metal zone
Had that little practice amp for years. Absolutely luv it.
Thank You so Much for this Video. I got an Orange Amp and almost thought i needed to get rid of it. I could not get the sound i needed to come out of it. But after watching this Video. I learned turn the Gain all the way up and just move the dirty volume up. Bam, I got the sound i was looking for. You Rock Ola. God Bless You and All Your Family.
In 2010, I saw Big Elf open for Porcupine Tree. The guitarist was playing through an Orange stack that was cranking out some serious Sabbath-like tones. Like "Sweet Leaf" heavy. Yeah, Orange can do metal.
I especially like the 8 foot tall mic stand for the 10" tall amp
Hi Ola! Could you try old school amp like Laney GH50 or GH100 }:>
Ola the first "Will it chug" for me was your Orange Micro Terror Metal video! It will be nice if you do that again on this section! Cheers!
I love this amp! Perfect for naming in my room
3:06 is it just a random riff or is it a real song? I'm obsessed with this riff.
Maybe one of his band’s riffs.
I got the 35rt and it has a effects loop... and I love it!!
Same here, it's a really solid amp.
Nice! I used to have one but regrettably sold it because at the time I didn’t like the sound but now I wish I kept it. Oh well I’m keeping my eye out for a used CR60
Ramon p
excelent video, right on time now that im in the need of getting an amp for small gigs. thx man
I always love the look of unsure approval you get the very instant you hear something you even halfway like. 😂
That was a most relative demo for guys like us begginer
Will it chug: cheap computer speakers
Ye actual, they do, I've tried 😂
@@shaggymotionless4269 lol really how
???
@@p4xpapi538 ah, so the little speakers had a mini aux plug, so I got an aux cable, put a bigger adapter on one end, plugged that into the guitar, then the other end into the speakers, and i can use a pedal, but it chugs anyway, cuz they create so much distortion 😂 the speakers were like $10 or $15 aud
@@shaggymotionless4269 I ran a Peavey Supreme 160 into a pair of DeWalt radio speakers. I was surprised by how decent it sounded. They were 16 ohm when wired in series so they worked just fine.
I have this amp. Very happy with it
Hey Ola great video man, love all of your stuff. I just bought an Orange Crush 20 and was wondering if you could share the EQ levels you had in this video. Thanks!
It does freaking chug for a solid state! I have the crush 35rt, and I’m happy with the gain itself , imagine adding the misha mansoor horizon 🤘🏼😎
I run a Friedman BE-OD in front of it, and an MXR 10 band EQ through the loop, and OMG is it freaking AMAZING!!! I used to use a Fullbore Metal in front, but since getting the Friedman the Fullbore is now on the shelf.
1. Of course it will chug it’s Ola he’s a master of chugging
2. Ola could you possibly try the Blackstar id tvp 30 or 60
I have the 30 version, added a TS OD pedal and I really dig the sound, but I think there might be some better options
Orel Arokidas I have the 60 watt version and I boost it with a modded Tube Screamer (it sounds good but not great) but I wanted to see if he could get a better tone out of it than I could (I’m sure he could). If you have any recommendations I would love to try them to see how they sound.
JP 88 id:s cant chug, metal ht:s can
Of course it can chug, just use the od 2, tvp at 6l6s and gain at 6 or 7. And if u think it needs more gain just boost the amp with a clean booster. There are tons of videos of ppl playing metal and chugging with the id tvp seties. For a solid state amp they r amaizing.
Fredrik Svärd check out the 'Sound Like Dimebag' on the Andertons channel then tell me the TVP can't chug.
Just picked up a 35rt because of this video. Absolutely loving the tone with my schecter.
what settings do u run?
im tryna sound like old slipknot
2nd Round Comment: This is why I dig my 35RT... 35 watts with FX loop. Although, I warm it up with a high voltage dual tube preamp (EHX Black Finger compressor). I gotta check out that pedal, tho! I've been using my TS mini too tighten things up and get the chug! But the sound you got was fantastic for a minimal rig.
why are the oranges always so FRIGGING impressive??
Because they are AWESOME!
For a solid state it sure sounds like a tube amp.It sounds damn good
My favorite sound from it is cranking the clean channel to 10. Sounds amazing for the price.
IT CHUGS! [as we head bang to your righteous sounds Ola Englund!!]
A few months ago I took my amp (Marshall DSL100HR) into the shop for a warranty repair on a factory "defect". I love that amp btw, best most versatile amp I've ever owned. I prefer the dsl100hr to the old dsl100's and even jcm800/900s. But while it was in the shop I almost picked one of these orange amps up. Out of all the Solid state amps I've ever played I've only genuinely enjoyed and liked the sound of one, the orange cr120. It's a solid state most notably the overall volume/ output on the cr120 is what gives it away. But it still gets reasonably loud and sounded excellent. I ended up not getting the 20rt and made it by using plugins. If I do get another amp it will be the cr120 or a stage right el84 tube amp. Those stage right 15w tube amps are an amazingly good deal, real spring reverb, effects loop, extension cab out, all tube, 3 band eq, celestion speaker all for $249. It's basically a blues Jr. clone. My marshall has amazing cleans, overdrive and full on distortion but it would be cool to have the American sound also for single coil stuff. Plus I could finally have a stereo rig lol.
