These compact yet mighty amplifiers deliver 100 watts of studio-grade power in a lightweight (3kg) and incredibly portable package, making them ideal for touring musicians, studio sessions, and any guitarist seeking a versatile and reliable tone machine.

Orange Amplification’s Ade Emlsey has been busy designing these three solid-state guitar amps: Dual Baby, Tour Baby, and Gain Baby. Each one offers a slightly different take on the amp design, and they cover a lot of ground between them, with something for everyone here.

Tour Baby: Versatility in a Compact Package

The Tour Baby boasts a remarkably versatile design, making it suitable for a wide range of playing styles. Its refined, clean channel features an onboard studio-grade VCA compressor, eliminating the need for external pedals and ensuring consistent dynamics and low noise even in the most demanding environments.

This channel excels with both active and passive pickups, delivering pristine cleans with exceptional clarity.

Dirty Channel

The dirty channel, with its naturally voiced overdrive, effortlessly achieves that coveted “point of breakup” sound. A custom-voiced presence control and a powerful 3-band EQ allow for precise tone shaping, ensuring the Tour Baby cuts through any mix.

A footswitchable volume boost provides an extra edge for live performances, adding punch and dynamics when needed.

Gain Baby: High-Gain Prowess in a Portable Form

The Gain Baby shares the exceptional clean channel of the Tour Baby, complete with the integrated VCA compressor for smooth and transparent compression.

Its high-gain channel, however, is a beast in its own right, featuring four distinct gain stages that allow players to dial in the perfect amount of crunch and saturation.

Tight Switch

The “Tight Switch” functions as a bright switch, boosting the upper mids at lower gain levels to add extra bite and definition to solos. A footswitchable volume control, buffered effects loop, and a versatile 3-band EQ provide extensive tonal control.

With multiple output options, including a balanced XLR output (without cab simulation) and dual speaker outputs, the Gain Baby is equally at home in the studio or on the largest stages.

Dual Baby: Dual Tones, Unmatched Power

The Dual Baby is a powerhouse in miniature, offering two distinct channels for maximum versatility. Channel A emulates the rich and responsive tones of the legendary Orange Rockerverb amplifiers in a reliable solid-state design.

Tubby Switch

From sparkling cleans to classic crunch and full-on saturation, this channel delivers a wide range of iconic Orange sounds. The innovative “Tubby Switch” boosts the low end early in the signal path, adding warmth and depth to clean tones and achieving that perfect “dirty-clean” edge.

Channel B unleashes a torrent of high-gain fury, delivering valve-like saturation and unprecedented levels of gain for a solid-state amplifier.

The “Tight Switch” on this channel adds spring and bounce, elevating the top end for blistering solos with incredible definition. A 3-band sweepable EQ and presence control provide meticulous tonal shaping, allowing players to dial in the perfect mids and shimmer for any mix.

Built for the Road

Each “Baby” amp is built to withstand the rigors of the road, with a lightweight and robust construction that makes them incredibly portable. Gig bags provide convenient transport, and optional rack ear kits are available for easy integration into any touring setup.

Orange Amplification’s “Baby” amps represent a significant leap forward in amplifier technology, delivering unparalleled power, versatility, and portability in a compact and affordable package.

These are genuinely must-have amplifiers for any guitarist on the move.
