Orange Rockerverb 50 MkIII 2-Channel 50W Head
Orange · amplifier
The Orange Rockerverb 50 MkIII is a two-channel 50-watt head and the amplifier most associated with Orange in its modern form. Its clean channel is voiced to stay clean rather than break up early, while the dirty channel covers classic Orange crunch through to genuinely high gain, and the MkIII revision added a footswitchable attenuator and improved the valve-driven reverb. The house voicing is thick and midrange-forward rather than scooped, which is why Orange amps cut in a band without extra EQ. It suits hard rock, stoner and doom players as much as classic rock ones.
