![]() All I’ve done is placed the Airis Savage drive in front and cranked up the tight and bite settings to emphasize the parts of the sound that will make it cut, and trimmed out the woofy low end that will muddy the mix. What you’re hearing in the demo is the same performances reamped through the same amp, same settings, and same cab sim. The TH30 is a super simple, 6-knob amp, with a 2-band EQ for the clean channel and a single Shape knob on the dirty channel that takes you through a multiverse of tone combinations with the sweep of a single pot. But if Orange is looking to the future, I think they might consider making an amp that sounds like this – it’s still Orange, but now it’s got cool sunglasses on. You might think that it sounded better without any boost or tweaking, and if so, great, you’re gonna have a great time with this amp as is and you don’t need me telling you how to live your life. ![]() There’s nothing wrong with the tone straight from the amp – it’s big and fat and warm, with a very full sound, as you heard, and I do think it sounds awesome all by itself, but I wanted to just kick it in the ass a little bit to show that Orange is more flexible than you might think and with a little tone sculpting and boosting, I think I managed to bring it into the 21st century. Of course, there’s plenty of room for Orange and no shortage of rock and metal musicians looking for classic guitar tones that the different Orange amps offer.īut I wanted to try a little bit of an experiment today, as to whether I can make a classic sound like this Orange TH30 more tight, aggressive, bright, and cutting for a dense modern metal mix. When speaking in a recent interview with Orange Amps founder Cliff Cooper, we talked about the future of Orange, and how the Orange sound isn’t going to change anytime soon and he told me he wasn’t really sure of their place in the modern music world. On today’s edition of Gear Gods Quality Control, we’re going to see if we can take a classic sound into the modern era with the Orange TH30! The TH30 combo also features our low impedance valve buffered effects loop.What’s up Gear Mortals, Trey Xavier here. ![]() The switchable output section can be used to tailor the amp to the situation, scaling down from 30 to 15 or 7 Watts. ![]() The sheer range of tones that can be dialed in from just six controls is nothing short of jaw-dropping whilst the quartet of EL84 valves convey their own crisp character, breaking up into rich overdrive when pushed to the limit. The Clean channel delivers sweet, crystalline cleans, right up to the point of breakup, whilst the Dirty channel remains unerringly focussed, steeped in complex harmonic overtones even at maximum gain settings. Fine-tuning your distorted tones has never been easier or more rewarding. The Dirty channel features the same powerful Shape control first seen on our Thunderverb series, sweeping the midrange from scooped to boosted. The depth of sound within this amp belies its size with our own Voice of the World speaker and an all plywood construction ensuring this combo will never fall foul of the ‘boxy’ label that plagues so many others on the market. This combo offers the perfect balance between power and portability, making it a perfect ‘grab-and-go’ combo for for regular gigging. The TH30 Combo combines the features of the TH30 head in an ultra versatile and supremely portable 1×12” format. ![]() With jangly cleans and high gain filth coexisting in perfect harmony, TH Series amplifiers excel whatever the situation. ![]()
