Rockerverb 50 &100 Owners Manual

Thank you for choosing Orange. You are now a member of the ‘Legendary British Guitar Amplifier’ owners club!

Since 1968, when the company was founded, Orange has been a pioneering force in the guitar amplification 
industry. Today, with a team of the world’s finest amplifier engineers, Orange continues to push back the 
boundaries of conventional tube amplifier design.

Our commitment to craftsmanship and quality control has allowed our amplifiers to stand the test of time, giving 
their owners as much pleasure now, as the day they were bought. To maintain this level of excellence, each Orange 
amplifier is put through many rigorous test procedures before leaving the factory.  

The warmth, tonal quality and rich harmonics generated by a valve amplifier cannot be reproduced by ‘artificial’ 
means. Many guitarists have reached the same conclusion: neither the transistor nor microchip is a suitable 
alternative to valve technology.

This booklet contains valuable technical and safety information Please take the time to read this manual as the 
information may enhance the sound and performance of your amplifier.

We are confident that you will be delighted with your new purchase and that it will provide you with many years 
of enjoyment.
