"Perfect small room practice amp with great response, even with an extended-range guitar (8 string for me). Just using it when playing with acoustic players and for practicing when I need a lower volume. Don't misinterpret that comment, it will put out volume and the overdrive and gain even sounds pretty good too.

The box is was shipped in got crushed but the packaging looked undamaged so it didn't bother me much. Didn't seem to affect the amp at all."

"Orange can't possibly be making any money on this amp. This has got to be a purely marketing investment. I've owned and played through a number of amps over the years and this is hands-down the best sounding amp I've ever played through.. and it's TINY! What in the world do they put in it??? Maybe every amp I've owned or used has just been total junk, by chance. But this thing sounds so full and articulate. And for $100, if you don't happen to get one that sounds as good as mine, dear reader, it doesn't even matter! Don't hesitate. This is a winner."

"I bought this amp to serve as my son's first amp to go with his electric guitar. After doing some research on entry level amps I decided to go with this Orange model. I found that nearly all reviews of this amp were positive.
I received the amp and decided to open the box just to make sure nothing was damaged. After verifying everything was fine I decided to power it on and give it a try. The first thing I noticed was how rich and powerful the distortion was for such a small amp. The variety of tone adjustments are great to tailor your sound as well. From hard rock/metal to clean and everything in between, this Orange CRUSH 12 amp delivers!"
