Orange Super Crush 100 Guitar Combo Amp
Building on the huge success of Orange Crush Pro solid state amplifiers, the Super Crush 100 Combo takes this now-classic recipe and goes a step further in the search for valve-like tone. Though equipped with all the same features as the original amp, the Super Crush 100 is a completely new design, proving that a lot of small improvements can make a BIG difference. And there’s a CabSim balanced output too!
With its single-ended, 2-channel JFET preamp design and 100-Watt Class A/B power amp, the Super Crush 100 mimics the huge, rich and responsive tone of Orange’s flagship Rockerverb amps in solid state. From clean to heavy high gain, there’s no shortage of Orange mojo. Touch-sensitive dynamics and lush harmonic overtones sing out of this amp with such authority and musicality that you’d swear there were valves inside! This compact 1×12 combo boasts an awesome sounding Celestion G12H-150 speaker. Thereby ensuring your tone leaves a big impression on the audience, but a tiny footprint on the stage.

AUTHENTIC ANALOGUE TONE
From input to output, the Super Crush 100 uses high-quality analogue circuitry to deliver all the immediacy, definition and character that you would expect from any of our top-of-the-range valve amps. It’s solid state done right.
HIGH GAIN, HIGH VERSATILITY
Two completely independent, all-analogue preamp channels give you instant access to a whole spectrum of warm, valve-like tones. From high-headroom clean to high-gain metal, every sound you could ever need is dialled in with ease, thanks to a versatile circuit and intuitively simple control layout.
The Dirty channel boasts four cascading stages of proper Orange gain, along with a passive three-band EQ. Just like its all-valve stablemates, the Super Crush 100’s Dirty channel can hammer out punishing heavy tones and also clean right up, whether you’re riding the guitar’s volume knob or the amp’s wide-ranging gain control.
The Clean channel is a bright, vintage-flavoured, two-stage design. There’s plenty of headroom, keeping your clean tones shimmering and clear at any level, with the option of cranking the volume up into fat, bluesy crunch.
100 WATTS OF SOLID-STATE MOJO
Solid state doesn’t have to be lifeless. We’ve proven that before with our Crush Pro range and we’re proving it all over again here. The Super Crush 100 uses the tried and tested 100 W Class A/B power amp from the Orange Pedal Baby 100. Delivering all the dynamics, presence and feel of a big valve amp, you’ll hardly believe your ears. Filling big stages is not a problem thanks to massive headroom, fantastic articulation and relentless punch.
DIRECT AND TO THE POINT
The Super Crush 100 features a balanced XLR output with our CabSim speaker-emulation technology. Mimicking the sound of a 2×12 cab, this no-nonsense, all-analogue filter gives you instant access to a great DI guitar tone. This has you all set for running straight into the PA or recording interface – and all without a microphone! The Cab Back switch selects between the sound of an open- or closed-back cab. So, you can home in on your perfect direct sound quicker than you can say “I don’t need a mic”.
BUILT-IN REVERB AND FULLY-BUFFERED EFFECTS LOOP
An on-board digital reverb module provides a lush, spring-reverb ambience, adding a deep and shimmering finishing touch to your sound. Prefer your own pedals? The fully-buffered, ultra-transparent, series effects loop takes care of all your effects needs. It accommodates even the most outlandish signal chains without ever compromising your carefully crafted tone.
CELESTION EQUIPPED
The Super Crush 100 combo comes armed with a Celestion G12K-150 speaker, giving it a hard-hitting, classically British voice. With 150w power handling, a large ceramic magnet and high sensitivity, this top-spec speaker makes the most of every Watt the amp has to offer.
