I'm waiting to see a purple Orange and orange Orange stack.

It hurts my eyes just thinking about it.

4 4x10s. 2 of each colour,  arranged like a Battenburg... 🤣

[spongebob]

I absolutely love that!

[Stub Mandrel]

That makes me feel all squidgy inside, like a teenage me talking to a girl...

[SteveXFR]

I really wanted a Orange 4x10 and a green Matamp 4x10. I think I might need a purple Orange 4x10 as well now. Maybe a heading each colour as well. 

[Cat Burrito]

Worth mentioning that It and are only doing this finish on the 50s Crush, at present.

[Stub Mandrel]

It's a Glenn Hughes signature model.

I can't imagine Glenn Hughes would have a 50w solid state combo on stage. Even if it is purple.

He used two  AD200s and four cabs at the Hammesmith Odeon ( Eventrite Apollo if you must) with Black Country Communion.

It's being marketed as a 'studio amp'.

[SteveXFR]

Really? I had a Crush 100 and it was a nice enough practice amp but certainly no studio amp. It had some really wooley distortion.

I can only report what Orange claim, I haven't heard this version.

 

If you read the article linked in the OP it will become clear(er).

I notice in the article it quotes Glenn Hughes saying "it's good enough to record with" but doesn't go as far as saying he'd record with it. Maybe it's good enough for amateur bassists working on their projects. It's got an XLR output with cab sim which would be useful.

An awful lot of amps are NOT good enough to record with.

In teh past (90s) I was just asked to go straight into the desk, not even via a DI.
