Orange OR60 Amp Head
All-Valve Guitar Amp Head
The OR60 is a 60‑Watt, UK‑built all‑valve guitar amp head with serious muscle. Driven by a pair of 6L6 power valves, it’s the most versatile single-channel amp we make: rich in clarity, tight in the lows and voiced to take boosts beautifully. A footswitchable second volume control adds versatility, while a Bright switch and dedicated Presence and Resonance controls offer fine-tuned power-amp shaping. Add in a negative feedback loop to keep unruly tones at bay and valve-buffered FX loop to perfect your signature sound, and you’ve got a single‑channel workhorse that’s equally at home with sparkling cleans, edge-of-breakup dynamics or high-gain aggression. It’s modern Orange tone, designed to go hard.

Crystal-clear pedal platform: Valve-buffered FX loop maintains signal integrity for time-based and modulation effects at any gain level.
In More Detail
Designed and made in the UK and loaded with premium components, the OR60 delivers focused, harmonically rich valve tone with a modern edge. Its 6L6-powered output stage gives the amp serious headroom and heft, especially with a boost pedal in front, while Presence and Resonance controls let you shape the top and bottom end of the power section. The Bright switch tightens up darker pickups and adds snap to clean tones, and the switchable 60W/30W output lets you push the amp harder at lower volumes. A second footswitchable volume control means effortless solo cut-through or rhythm/lead switching without touching the gain. This amp’s simplicity is its key: just the straight-up, high-voltage voice of a masterfully designed single-channel amp, ready to be played raw or augmented with a valve-buffered FX loop. Simple, solid, and seriously loud.
Low-end control with the Resonance dial
The OR60’s dedicated Resonance control allows you to dial in the low-end response of the power amp, tailoring the amp’s feel and depth to your playing style or cab setup. Whether you’re after percussive tightness for modern metal or a more classic, blooming bottom end, the Resonance knob gives you that extra degree of control that’s typically found only in high-gain designs.
Brightness at the Flick of a Switch
The Bright switch on the OR60 helps you sculpt the amp’s top-end voicing without affecting its overall gain character. Engaged, it lifts the treble response for extra clarity and presence, which is especially useful with humbuckers or darker‑voiced guitars. Switched off, it smooths things out for a warmer, rounder tone. It’s a simple tweak with a big impact, especially if you jump between guitars or genres mid‑set.
Two volumes, one footswitch
A second, footswitchable volume control gives you built-in flexibility for rhythm and lead settings without needing extra pedals. Set it higher for solos, lower for quieter moments, or balance both to suit your band mix. Because it doesn’t touch the gain, your core tone stays consistent and just louder or softer whenever you need it. For live players and studio setups alike, it’s a powerful feature that makes the OR60 incredibly playable, whatever the style.
