Orange Crush Bass 50 Combo
MODERN TO VINTAGE
TheĀ Crush Bass 50Ā compact combo, inspired by Orangeās flagshipĀ AD200Ā andĀ OB1Ā bass amplifiers, perfectly blends some of the most defining elements of each. It has the essentials of a recording amp and delivers warm, clean bass tones, vintage growl with fat low end and blendable overdrive.
Like the rest of theĀ Crush BassĀ range, this 50 Watt model delivers bold and punchy lows courtesy of its analogue circuitry and ported cabinet. The extremely flexible active EQ section includes a sweepable parametric mid band, allowing players to shape their signature sound without limitations. For even more versatility, the interactive Gain and Blend controls are primed for creating enormous ābi-ampedā-style tones with ease, adding extra harmonics and variable levels of grit to the core bass tone. They can also be switched in remotely using the optional footswitch. Other handy features include a buffered effects loop, integrated tuner, aux. input and a headphone output with our Cabsim circuitry.
POWERFUL ACTIVE PARAMETRIC EQ
The Crush Bass 50 features an EQ circuit inspired by our prestigious 4 Stroke Series amplifiers. At its centre is aĀ parametric mid band. This presents players with a much greater degree of control over the sound than a traditional EQ, allowing them to vary the frequencies they want hear. The mid band covers a wide range, sweeping from 300Hz (fully counter-clockwise) to 2.7kHz (fully clockwise), meaning this amp can be fine tuned to suitĀ any musical style. The active circuitry allows for up toĀ 15dBĀ of boost or cut on the bass and middle frequencies, and up toĀ 20dBĀ on the treble side.
BLEND & GAIN
Lifted straight from our popular OB1 Series amps, the Blend and Gain controls are a nod to the many bass players who experiment with guitar and bass ampsĀ simultaneously. In this ābi-ampedā setup, layers of harmonics and distortion from the guitar amp areĀ blendedĀ with the core bass tone to create the ultimate full-range live sound. The Crush Bass 50ās Gain and Blend controls create the same effect in a single package, adding extra bite and crispness to the tone at lower gain settings, right up to all-out filth with the dials cranked. These controls can also be engaged remotely with the optional FS-1 footswitch, ideal for fattening your tone on the fly.
ANALOGUE DESIGN & PORTED CABINET
The Crush Bass series delivers fat, rounded sound thanks to anĀ all analogue signal path. The Crush Bass 50 houses aĀ 12ā speakerĀ with aĀ reflex portĀ for improved low-end response. The buffered effects loop has been engineered for maximum transparency, ensuring your pedal arsenal will perform to its peak.
CABSIM HEADPHONE OUTPUT, AUX INPUT & CHROMATIC TUNER
The headphone output features our Cabsim circuitry which emulates the response of our stage-ready OBC bass speaker cabinets during silent practice. This signal can also be sent to a console forĀ seriously authentic direct recording. TheĀ Aux. InputĀ allows for connecting external audio sources for backing tracks whilst the handy onboard tuner makes for quick tune-ups between jams.
