A buddy of mine has an Orange Micro Terror that he ran for a couple of years through that 8 inch speaker. I set him up with a 2x12 with a Celestion G12T-75 and a G1265-Heritage. I still remember the grin on his face when he strummed that first power chord

I have a micro dark terror running through a 1980s 2x12 cab that was my uncle's with green backs

The clean tones it offers are exquisite. Thanks so much for demonstrating it with Black Sabbath's "Solitude", I have not heard that song in years!

[wheresallthezombies]

i forgot how good of a pedal platform this amp is. the clean tones are crazy good.

The Orange stamp is basically the micro dark. Fx loop is a must to maximize the use of a good eq pedal.

I’ve got the Orange Micro Dark. Cool little amp, when I use that amp I run it into a 1x12 cab loaded with a greenback speaker. Takes pedals really well, I usually run a Fuzzlord FET120 & Russian muff in front of it. I’m thinking about since the Micro Dark has a effects loop is to run the FET120 in the loop with the FTW120 in the front. Another good budget option amp to check out is the Orange OR15. Oh one more thing about the Orange micro amps is if you’re going to a shop to check out some cabs is this amp is easy to carry so you can take it with you & carry your guitar to try out other cabs.

Jason, as usual, you made the Micro Terror sound pretty darn good. I have the Micro Dark and it is loud especially connected with my two Orange PPC112 cabs.

[PotholeFromHell]

The silicon and germanium fuzzfaces sound epic on this amp. Fullbore metal by mxr in front is just unholy amount of sleezy crunch, able to summon entities from the realm. Loving this amp 🔥

[michaelorourke]

Jason you made this amp sound amazing, I demoed one at a Guitar Center years ago and I wasn't impressed enough to purchase. This video is excellent and I love your sound and your awesome guitar. I always look forward to your new videos thank you for everything you do.

The Orange "Lunch Box" amps are serious tone machines for sure. Really trough to beat for the money when you consider how most people would wind up using them.
In terms of other "Budget" amps... Joyo's Bantamp series came out a few years ago and they even made a Orange clone... Personally I'd like to hear a Fuzzlord pedal rig through a Joyo Blue Jay (their Fender style "clean" Bantamp). On paper that could sound soul crushing.

For a few more bucks the Micro Dark has an FX loop with the same tone. Great little amps.

[Jeff_HellensBridge]

I picked up a crush pro 120 for like 325 and it can do hardcore, thrash, doom and whatever. It even has some really pretty reverb settings and it gets sparkly

[yobanyhernandez]

the micro dark is also very good. Honestly still one of the best sounding amps I have played to this day.

[matthewmaclean]

Lot of useable sounds in a compact package. The 8" speaker lets it down, but through some v30s or another nice 12" speaker, the Micro Terror/Dark really shine. Great amp for the money

[peterb]

Another awesome video. Thanks jason. Sounds great

[mistershabadoo]

Had my eye on this little amp for awhile. It definitely punches way above its price point. I also really like how well it takes pedals! The fact it can power a full cab makes me seriously consider it for gigs.

Never heard an Orange I didn’t like.

Great demo and awesome tones! Cheers!

[grzz]

I’m coming to this vid 4 months after it came out, I’m loving the tone with that FTW120. Made my skin crawl a little. I want one!

[inkraktare]

Sounds great even through the 8 inch 👍
I just last month got the Micro Dark Terror and matched it with a 1x12 Laney cab. Less than £300 and sound huge 🤘😁🤘

[TheDistortionPrinciple]

I had been planning on doing sma video on these too! Somethings in the air lol. Great video.

[Dan-O-mite]

I had a micro terror when they were first released. I played it through a 1x12 and it punched way above its price point. Another cheap amp you might wanna check out is the Boss Katana mini. My wife bought me one for livingroom jamming. I ran my Rat through the clean channel and also boosted the crunch channel with my Rat. I was able to coax some surprisingly good doomy tones out of it. It's only bottleneck is the small speaker. But for what it costs and that it's so portable, it's really killer for what it is. Great channel, Jason, as always.
