Yeah I just looked up at how Sam uses the CR120 and that makes perfect sense if you're using it that way. I got mine for like $350 on CL, the new price for the OR is a bit high I feel.

That's true of every modern Orange, regardless of wattage.

The CR120 sounds great. If more people catch on they could be quite popular.

That's a very valid point.

a live vid of full of hell playing last year showed them using one for one of the guitar stacks.

I have added to my rig a bit. I picked up a West Fillmore 200 water that I am currently rebuilding do to the fact UPS destroyed it in shipping. I also picked up a 160 watt Peavey Mace, and a 200 watt Peavey Roadmaster festival series head. Only one new cab so far but I love it. It is a Mesa 2x15 with EVs. Below is a pick of some of it.

very nice.

Oooooo. That Super Festival lookie very nice. I've always dug those Mesa 2x15s in a big way, too.

Speaking of Mesas, I ran into a great deal on a '95 two-channel Recto. Great timing, since my main amp needs some bench time. The orange/vintage channel on these is so boss.

lots of nice posts today.
lookin' good bros.

Nice!

Diamond plate just wasn't doing it for me.

Much better!

Dang, Jäke... that looks awesome!

Now swap out those knobs...

yea looks much better... also agreed that the knobs should go now as well.

Some of this got lost in old posts and whatnot, but it can't hurt to show them off again, can it?



Picked it up off a buddy for $120. Well loved, needs some work. Finally got my GFS parts in and installed new tuners and bridge; tuners were a pain because the original holes were too small. The poly finish didn't like being raped by my power drill either:



Disappointed, but at least it's not out of place. There's lots of finish missing elsewhere and few spots someone tried to cover with sharpie Switching need to be rewired as both pickups are always on and I need to file the nut some more so I have playable action, but it's getting there.

I'm wanting to get a new bridge pickup for now, and am thinking Seymour Duncan. I think Pelliot or Mr. Stomach (sorry dudes, it's the dog avatars! ) suggested the Distortion for an LP bridge. After a few demos I'm kind of thinking a JB. My Agile has a Super 2 in the bridge, but it could use a tad more bass. Every demo of the JB has the pick attack I'm accustomed to hearing on older Pelican records. Which is a good thing.



And there's this! Amps aren't exactly new, but the setup for the room is, and I get an earful of AOR! Makes it easier to hear looping on it's dedicated amp. I also adjusted the overall sound to be darker, which helped greatly with feedback and didn't kill my cleans like I thought they would.

I want the knobs on that Concert Lead to climb up and situate themselves on the Mesa. That grill cloth was a solid choice
