This might be one of the most amazing inventions in our time. The lunch box amps have been such a huge hit over the last few years that many more manufacturers are starting to catch onto the hype. orange has put out several small ad portable amps, but this one might be the easiest best features and most usable tone that Orange has had.

This thing is so easy to use and communicate with that is doesn't take a genius to figure out. It have four control knobs and one of them is for the Aux input which means it allows you to tailor the volume of you CD player or MP3 to better match you ow guitar volume. That is a great little feature that I haven't seen before on other similar size amps.

SOUNDS

I have to say that the tone on this amp is remarkable! It is very creamy and thick that you wouldn't expect on a small solid state amp like this. It is noticeably a Orange distortion tone as well. Definitely British is flavor but all Orange.

I like this amp with any guitar. This amp is meant to be a practice amp and just god for polishing up your guitar skills, the bonus is that it sounds great!. If I had to pick a guitar it would be a Fender Stratocaster or a Charvel Socal or San Dimas. Something with a medium to low body wood ton wise like an ash or alder.

OVERALL OPINION

The nice thing about this amp is all you need is your guitar and some head phones if you are playing silently. This amp has a built in tuner, but no effects so you need to sap a delay in front in you need something like that.

At new these amps come in at around $90 which is a steal in my opinion. Great price for a stereo mini lunch ox amp that sounds fantastic. I like when you want to jam to your favorite song using your ipod and or you just want to hide away in your office and jam quietly.
