Product Information

With over 50 years of experience in great guitar tone and quality, the Crush Acoustic 30 is Orange’s entry into the world of acoustic amplification. At ease in any situation, this lightweight, portable, battery powered acoustic combo continues the Orange tradition of simple but versatile design. The warmth, tonal quality and rich harmonics generated by Orange amplifiers cannot be reproduced by artificial means. Many guitarists have reached the same conclusion: there is nothing as good as an analogue amplifier!

The voltage-selector switch and mains fuse are set at the factory for the country or region in which this Orange product is intended to be sold. To prevent serious damage to the product, ensure that the rated AC mains voltage indicated on the product’s rear panel agrees with the mains voltage from your AC mains inlet before connecting the IEC power cable. With an XLR input this channel can be used as a second guitar input or separate microphone input, phantom power is switchable, as is the mic/line. Kind of like an onomatopoeia sounds like what it means, Orange amps have always looked like what they’re called, and how cool is that? And whereas many Orange designs have been associated with super heavy music of late, the fact is you can play just about any style of music through them and they sound great. Orange is reiterating that point in a big—and little—way with the Orange Crush Acoustic 30, only its second foray into the acoustic amp world, which can run on ten AA batteries, so you can crank it up literally anywhere.However, if you want to play on the move, or ply your trade busking on a busy high street, this amplifier can also be powered by 10 x AA batteries! Whether you busk, play stages, practice at home or all of the above, the Crush Acoustic 30 has you covered, leaving you free to work your magic. Controls

On-Board Effects I could see this amp handling a quiet coffeehouse or living room gig, but it strikes me as underpowered for busking on a noisy street corner, although the battery operation makes it a great candidate for doing exactly that. The Crush Acoustic 30 could be a great personal monitor on a large gig, utilizing the XLR DI out to feed the house PA. It’s a smart-looking little sound system with effects." The Orange Crush Acoustic 30 is a portable 30 watt amp designed for acoustic guitar players. It’s great for busking and jamming, being lightweight (just over 6kg), and it can be battery powered, making it easy to move around.
