Orange AD200-V2 Bass Amp Head - Orange (Made in UK)

The AD200 is Orange’s flagship bass amp, bringing together all the features and versatility that any modern player could wish for, presented via the iconic super-clean, pics-only front panel and all wrapped up in that classic Orange tone. Designed on the premise that the best tone comes from the shortest signal path from guitar to speaker, the AD200 is beautifully uncomplicated, featuring inputs for both active and passive instruments, a simple but powerful EQ, and a clean switch to hold off on the crunch if desired.

Driven by four KT88 valves pushing 200 Watts, the AD200 produces deep, dynamic low end and warm, rich mids. The gain structure offers players of all styles mellow cleans through to hyper-saturation, and whatever the situation, there’s no shortage of punch. And for those who want to retain clean tones at high volumes, the AD200’s Clean switch will back off from Orange’s classic high-gain fuzz.

A brand new output transformer, with 3 inches of laminations, harnesses double the power at 30Hz, offering better response at low frequencies. ‘It now pushes more air, flaps more trouser leg — simple as that,’ explains Orange Amps Technical Director Ade Emsley. From mellow hues to heavy, percussive growl and even slap bass, the ultimate incarnation of the AD200, has just become even more versatile. Under the hood, meanwhile, the AD200 is a tech’s dream. With the capacity to run unmatched valves thanks to the presence of individual bias pots and with increased user serviceability coupled with Orange’s as-standard rugged road-ready build quality, this is the best amp you can buy, now futureproofed for life.
