Orange OB1-500 Single Channel Solid State Head 500 Watt

Description

From Orange:

For years bassists have been combining guitar and bass amps to remarkableeffect, addingharmonics and layers ofoverdrive from a guitar amp to their core bass tone in pursuit of the ultimate live sound. This bi-amp trend got us thinking Why drag two amps to the show when you could take just one?The result is the OB1 Series of class A/B rack mountable bass heads whichtake care of this and much more besides.

The key to the OB1s unique sound is our footswitchable Blend circuitwhich adds a veneer ofcontrollablegain and increased harmonic content to the upper registersof the input signal. The lower frequencies and clean signal are left alone, staying warmand clearjust as they would be ina bi-amped setup. Depending on where the Gain and Blend controls are set, the possibilities are limitless. Punch in the Blend control to achieve anything from a transparent clean boost, to all-out filthy grind, and everywhere in between.

OB1-500shares the same layoutand 2U rack dimensions as the less powerful OB1-300, coupled toafull fat 500 Watt output section to move some serious air.
