Orange crush bass amps, any god?

If i would advise anything, at least hear a few sound clips on the internet or even better go to a shop and spend a while trying a few out.

The world of internet shopping is great if you know exactly what you want, but don't spend that much just on reviews and people's opinions. (no offence intended m3csl2004).

I completely agree :)
 
Sure thanks for the advice Ozzy, I live next to quite a few guitar shops, I will be popping in and trying a few of the amps. Im sure the orange amps are in stock there too.
 
Yeah, the more you try them the more you'll find the one that suits you.

I was the same when i bought my first valve amp a few weeks ago. I was set on the Marshall's after hearing so many stories about them, but i ended up surprising myself and bought a Fender instead. If i spend £450 online for that Marshall i would have been gutted as it sucked real bad.
 
Thanks to you guys here, I have got my amp. I settled for this little darling...

30 Watts RMS - Normal & High inputs - Bass, Swept Mid and Treble EQ - 1 x 10" custom designed driver - Compressor - Internal limiter - DI jack socket - CD Input (Phono) - Kick Proof Metal grille - Master volume
Speaker connections 1x Jack (8 Ohms)
Weight: 11.75 Kg
Dimensions (mm): 440 x 390 x 257





Actually its not so small as the other amps in its class and dosent look as cheap either. I decided on this as I went to a local shop and as instructed had a play of it. It sounded great to me. I also tried a Fender, it was nice but had less amps and was more expensive. I got the Laney RB2 for £99.. quality price I reckon. Its really solid and packs quite a punch.. suits me fine.

Also has a Headphone socket on it, to the relief of the wife and neighbours. :)

I reccomend this amp to anyone wanting a pratice and portable gigging amp. :)
