    4 out of 5 stars Pretty damn good   July 15, 2010
    Conner K. Staplehurst (Hull, England UK)
    Positives:
    1) More then loud enough as a practise amp
    2) Small and lightish
    3) Good quality production

    Negatives:
    1) A fair bit of background noise
    2) (this may just be mine) but the tuner doesn't work
    3) Doesnt come with a 9V mains adapter

    Overall a very good practise amp and a very good price. The lack of a adapter is annoying but the biggest of the 3 downsides (providing that the problematic tuner is only mine and i didnt really buy it for that).
    I would 100% reccoment this to anyone needing a small amp

    I've been looking for a decent practice amp for ages. In the past I have had Pignose amps, marshalls, no-names, in short a few. I've never had an Orange.

    Why not?!

    Others have covered the build and operation, I just want to comment on the sound - clean it's lovely with pretty much everything from Telecaster 'ching!' to down and dirty wallop. Overdriven it's a joy! It has one unique trick up it's sleeve - a tone control that actually works. I don't know about the rest of you, but on small / cheap amps I tend to turn these up and leave them up - not here. Quite remarkable colours and variations can be had with a little judicious knob twisting. Overdriven with the tone almost off this pocket marvel delivers a stunning dirty blues tone, and that was using a half-scale, single pickup kids guitar I use when travelling... Imagine how much better that gets when you plug quality into the other end!

    Someone else suggested, skip the Marshall, buy this. They're right - 100%. Pignose may have a quirky history but this is better, much much better. At about £30 every guitarist should be given one of these!




    5 out of 5 stars Great quality mini amp   June 2, 2010
    Mr. D. J. Phillips
    Arrived in a couple of days. Good quality sound for small amp, 'overdrive' is a quality touch. Will do until I can afford a decent practice Orange.

    I bought this little amp to practice with. I play Bass!!! I's ok if you turn down your volume knob(s) on the bass and have the amp's volume on full. It's fine for playing along with CDs or iPod.

    I'd never really considered a micro-amp before, assuming that they were more of a gimmick than a useful piece of kit.

    After having read the reviews on Amazon, however, I decided to give the Micro Crush a try and I am well impressed by both the sound and build quality. There's plenty of volume for practice and what I like is that there's virtually no background 'buzz' that often plagues practice amps. The standard input offers a nice, jangly clean tone but a press of the overdrive switch provides a nice, fuzzy distortion. The inclusion of a tuner is also a plus.

    I don't know how long battery life is as I've only had the amp a day but there is the option to use a mains supply (not provided).

    On top of all the plus points above is the 'groovy' retro look of the unit. Very highly recommended!
