Orange Crush Bass 50

Orange Crush Bass 50 – 50‑Watt 1×12″ Bass Combo Amp

Modern to Vintage
The Crush Bass 50 compact combo, inspired by Orange’s flagship AD200 and OB1 bass amplifiers, perfectly blends some of the defining elements of each. It delivers the essentials of a recording amp with warm, clean bass tones, vintage growl with fat low end, and blendable overdrive. It generates bold, punchy lows thanks to its analogue circuitry and ported cabinet.

Powerful Active Parametric EQ
Features an extremely flexible active EQ section including a sweepable parametric mid band, enabling players to shape their sound without limitations.

Blend & Gain Controls
Interactive Gain and Blend controls create enormous bi‑amped‑style tones with ease—adding extra harmonics and variable grit to the core bass signal. These can also be switched via the optional footswitch.

Buffered Effects Loop, Tuner & Cabsim
Includes a buffered effects loop, integrated tuner, auxiliary input, and a headphone output featuring Orange's CabSim circuitry.
