The Orange Crush 12 is the smallest amp in the Crush range, with 12 watts which makes it great to use at home. The all-analogue circuitry makes it extremely articulate compared to other amps of a similar size, so it’s great for players who are a little more exacting in their tonal requirements.
The Orange Crush 12 has a powerful 3 band EQ which allows for greater control over your sound, and Volume, Gain, and Overdrive knobs. The responsive overdrive control lets you achieve a wide range of tones, and combined with the Gain, it allows you to get the perfect amount of grit in your playing. It also has a great clean tone at high levels without unwanted distortion or clipping. The Orange Crush 12’ has custom Voice of the World speakers providing the signature Orange sound, despite its size.
The headphone output includes the CabSim feature, which emulates the sound of a mic’d Orange 4×12″ cabinet through your headphones, and you can practice without disturbing the neighbours while still getting the great Orange sound, even at low volumes. You can also connect an audio interface to make studio-quality recordings.
ALL ANALOGUE SIGNAL PATH
Our commitment to analogue amplifier circuitry in a digital age ensures Crush amps possess the lively feel and responsiveness that Orange is famous for, inspiring guitarists to play their instruments, not the technology. The Crush 12’s Overdrive control can be used to sculpt a wide range of dirty tones, from sweet and crunchy to rich and thick. The newly voiced EQ section allows for even greater control over your sound.
CABINET SIMULATION
The headphone/line output includes our new CabSim feature, faithfully emulating the sound of a mic’d Orange 4×12″ cabinet loaded with our flagship Voice of the World speakers. Use headphones for silent practice or connect to a mixer/recording console to capture huge, authentic Orange tones in the studio.
VOICE OF THE WORLD SPEAKER
Our own custom designed speakers deliver the perfect balance between modern low end punch and vintage highs, maintaining clarity even when pushed.
CLASSIC ORANGE STYLING
Finished in our legendary livery dating back to 1968, the Crush range features our basket weave vinyl, woven speaker grille cloth, signature ‘picture frame’ edging and iconic hieroglyphs on the control panel.
