SKU: CRUSH-BASS-50-LTD

Product Description

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Glenn Hughes is best known as the bassist and vocalist of Deep Purple. He is also known for his work with Trapeze, Black Country Communion and most recently Rock and Roll supergroup, The Dead Daisies. Hughes has been an Orange ambassador for nearly a decade and the Limited Edition Glenn Hughes Crush Bass 50 is a celebration of his work and influence on rock music. As Cliff Cooper, CEO and founder of Orange amps said, "To make a purple amp seemed like the best way to pay tribute to him."

The Limited Edition Glenn Hughes Crush Bass 50 features the same specs as the standard Crush Bass 50 but it has been adorned in an appropriately purple vinyl with a classy silver plaque bearing Hughes' name. The Crush Bass 50 has all the essentials of a practice amp, including a chromatic tuner, headphone output and auxiliary input for plugging in an external audio device. It also has all of the tone and features of a professional gigging rig including 50 watts of power, buffered effects loop and active 3 band EQ for accurate tone shaping.

The Crush Bass 50 delivers a plethora of great tones from warm, modern cleans to full on distorted mayhem, and everything in between! Hughes is known for his huge bass tones and the Crush Bass 50 will get you there either at home, in the studio on stage.

Key Features

  • Active 3 Band EQ - Quickly and easily dial in the tone you're looking for with controls for Bass, Mid and Treble. The active circuit provides 15dB of boost or cut on the bass and middle frequencies, and up to 20dB on the treble side.
  • Headphone Out/Aux In - The built in headphone output allows for silent practice at home, which means you can practice your gut busting bass riffs at any time without bothering anyone! The aux input gives you the option to plug in an external audio device to jam along to your favourite tracks with ease.
  • Gain, Gain, Gain! - The Crush Bass 50 has enough gain on tap to sink a battleship, minimising the need for additional overdrive pedals, although it works really well as a pedal platform should you chose to thrown in some effects.
  • Purple Vinyl Covering - Orange are of course known for their distinct orange vinyl coverings but it wouldn't be a Glenn Hughes signature amp without a cool 'deep' purple finish, right?!

So, £20 extra for a purple one might seem a bit unnecessary, but it helped sell it to the wife! I actually really like it, and I love the sound of this amp. It enhances the range of tones from the bass even without using the amp’s tone controls, which are also really useful. A nice even response and it handles the low B on a five string with no problem, as does the built-in tuner, which is very convenient.

Exactly what you'd expect from an Orange bass amp in stylish purple.
