Orange announces OR50 Head reissue!

In 2008 Orange celebrated their 40th anniversary with the release of the OR50 Head. And after a few years of overwhelming public demand Orange has announced the reissue of the OR50 for 2012!

The OR50 is a tribute to the 1972 “Pics Only” amplifier which came to define the Orange sound. Though not a direct reissue of the “Pics Only” amp the OR50 definitely leans to to the vintage legend in it’s cosmetics, tone and even construction. The OR50 features a traditional single channel with a three stage gain section,but the real secret in the OR50′s arsenal is the HF Drive control. This is two controls in one! Turning the control clockwise will increase the power amp presence whilst adding an extra dimension of power amp gain.  Along with a foot defeatable master volume, this is truly one of the most versatile single channel amps ever created.

The OR50 is scheduled to start shipping in January of 2012 so be on the lookout! Or if you want to go ahead and claim on for yourself click on the image to pre-order yours today!

Tone Kinghas announced it’s latest masterpiece due to start hitting the streets in early March of 2012! And your friends here at Humbucker Music have them up and ready for pre order.

Tone King’s all new 12W, 1×10 Falcon channels the simplicity and grease fired glory of pure old-school tweed tone. The unique and all new single channel 3-knob preamp (vol, tone, voicing) has three distinct but overlapping voicings – blackface, dead-nuts tweed, and tight 70′s hard rock crunch. Its’ 2x6V6, cathode biased, zero-feedback, ultralinear output stage gives the Falcon a totally old school vibe – spanky, twangin’ cleans and overdrive so chunky, thick, and fat that you can practically smell the bacon frying. A genuine built-in Ironman precision attenuator guarantees that you’ll get the same  grease-fired tones at any volume level, down to true bedroom level.

Available in Black, Brown, Cream and Turquoise the Falcon is sure to have the vibe and tone you are looking for! For more information click on the image!
