Orange AD30TC 30-watt class-A 2-channel guitar amp combo

General

The AD30TC by Orange is a 30-watt valve combo. Its open back construction allows for a good look at the two 12-inch Celestion Vintage 30 speakers, as well as wide cleans with lively and clear trebles. The circuit is the same as in the AD30HTC head, yet it is now in a larger, rugged plywood housing that helps the combo achieve a perfect mix of spice and warmth. As always, the orange tolex ensures that this tube combo is a hard-to-miss attribute to any stage or rehearsal room.

Orange AD30TC: two separate channels

Thanks to its two channels, the AD30TC is effectively two amplifiers in a single housing. Both channels have their own, fully separate circuit. They each feature two-phase gain and a master volume control. Additionally, each channel can be set for a clean setting, with more crunch if so desired. Channel One has a gentle character with a big, traditional tone, whereas Channel Two comes with a tighter bass response, more gain and clearly present mids.

Versatile guitar amplifier combo

The great thing about a valve amplifier is that it responds marvellously to your personal playing style. No matter which genre you play, or which settings you use, this Orange amplifier is sure to follow you like a golden retriever. The EL84 valves deliver the sound of an era in which these amplifiers earned their excellent reputation. Combined with the GZ34 rectifier, this amplifier sounds even more vintage. From country to blues and from funk to metal, this combo is ready for virtually any type of music.
