Orange Amps Rockerverb 100 MKIII Review | GEAR GODS

[@mcolby7214]

Man I wish more people would use oranges for heavy music! These things sound great! Slipknot was my gateway into heavy music so it's no wonder I love Jim Root's orange tone

[@maurder]

This demo made me think of .5 the gray chapter

[@eyedunno8462]

People do use them outside of Slipknot y'know

[@jaydinbreen8476]

@@eyedunno8462 no jim I don't know, oh, maybe I do, and you're not jim. Sorry.

[@reesebobby1680]

Check out a band called Loathe. Also check out Hum. Both bands use Oranges. If you're into Deftones/Doom/Sludge you'd probably like both bands. Defintely recommend those two bands.

[@Silentt29]

A lot of doom / sludge / stoner metal bands use Orange amps

Your stare>any riff

[@mikemccourt6225]

5:38 - massive transformers, but, nothing sounds as good as big iron. I demoed this recently through the Orange 4x12 and it is one of the best clean channels out there right now. I had a Strymon Riverside in the front end and a Carbon Copy in the fx loop and it was to die for.

[@adamalexanderray]

I just got one yesterday. When I watched this review I thought he must have been exaggerating how heavy in weight this head is, but it’s heavier than my cab 😂 Sounds incredible so totally worth it!

[@MetalHeadHippie]

OUT of my price range, but nice amp. Nice riffage as always.

[@c.f.pedraza4057]

Put it on layaway through your local shops. Just any money you get, throw it towards what you want.

[@nimitz1739]

That’s why I got the JimRoot Orange Terror. Its copied from Root’s rockreverb Distortion channel but in a 15watt lunchbox head size. Same sound, cheaper head. And don’t let the size full you, it’s every loud!

[@DR31D]

Trey ripping it \m/ awesome solo, and kick as demo!

[@DaveCaesar]

This is my Holy Grail of Amps. Every time anyone doubts that it can do the Metal I show them 3 Videos: This one, the mkii vs mkiii comparison @Riffs, Beards & Gear did and of course the one from @Ola Englund with the mkii.

[@watchingthecrazyworld7761]

Good comment, thought I would ask you a question. If you could buy one head on this price range, would it still be this one?

[@tammycoates7816]

You mere mortals!!!.. I'm here for the jams❤

[@briandowdall5328]

I’ve got one and it’s a beast. And yes... it’s heavy af

[@laitysblues]

Would have like to hear the reverb and attenuator used

[@Releasethebats123]

I was going to sell mine until i realized how much I'd miss it... Your demo convinced me to keep it for life. I'm going to delete my clist post now:)

[@ben__ford9235]

Still have it?

[@lyric.kayden]

Always loved the sound of the Rockerverb series. I have a PRS Archon 100 and looking for a secondary amp to go with it. Curious is there enough difference in sounds between the Archon and Rockerverb iii to warrant both amps? Or not?

[@izzytw08]

I own this . It IS heavy !! The cab is too !! But the sound will melt your head!!

[@SlyHikari03]

What cab was used? Sounds nice.

[@orphanuprising]

Love these riffs

[@alyusdickey9561]

Agghh the end to that playthrough makes me want to kick a baby!! In a good way of course tho..

[@motorrebell]

Awesome Review ! Orange amps works - reacts BEST with The GUITAR Tone - Vol Knobs ! I can get every Gain -Tone without even touching the amp !

[@TheJMan1K]

How does the 100 compare to the 50?

[@incognitoguitars9999]

Great job Trey!

[@danilsports9107]

I got one myself, but when it came it had not eben close gain as in the Demo, also it was fizzling, i contacted thomann and they told me somethin is wrong with it. So now i get a New one. Can an amp have lets say 40% less gain when preamp tubes are broken or somethin?

[@aarondr594]

Yes that's possible but it can also be your pickups. If your guitar has low output pickups the amp can have significantly less gain.

[@danilsports9107]

[@IndyRockStar]

The Rockverb 100 MKIII is 58 lbs! That's kind of incredible that there is that much weight in a box that size. 58 lbs isn't OMG heavy, but it is definitely in the pain the ass to carry around category. Still going to buy one. I have a fantasy of running a Rockverb in stereo with a JCM800.

[@300WINMAG360]

I really can't decide between this and the EVH 5150 iii Stealth.

[@nathanielcava4128]

Pitdog360 stealth is a killer amp. They’re both different sounds on the spectrum

[@brandonkeller478]

An orange is a much more versatile option and EVH is not worth the money they’re selling with it being MiM and cheaper build quality

Best Orange amp.

[@RobbDizzl]

Did you accidentally high pass the whole mix of the intro song?

[@ShredShed]

Orange amps kick ass.

[@Music_is_fun]

Need a 75 string to get some tone from that amplifier?!?

[@alm000]

Cool song and playing Trey, that lead was sic \M/

[@tob2089]

That tone makes my skin want to peel off

Just got one i love it also have an Black Star HT CLUB 40 that i love my black star is very light my orange is a ton very heavy. But it sounds great i wanna use them together my black star is in the shop getting fixed

Man i think i found my next amp, i think id an attenuator because i live in an apartment haha.

[@iann8733]

It has built in attenuation

[@elliottskitchen1583]

I had one and noticed it was super noisy in terms of him when I wasn’t playing I used nooses gates and even grounding for the outlets

[@TheOtherJohnBrowne]

Cyka blyat! That tone is crushing!

[@DaaMooNVanquish]

awesome dud

[@evewarfield1913]

Which ones the backing track and which ones the amp

[@anthonyholmes3457]

This amp is ridiculous. Cant really appreciate from a video. Orange seem to contain more color to is tone than any other amp I've played. It's like it's more alive with a personality. This video is great but other genres definitely convey what I'm saying a bit better.

[@sunnym19]

Sir can you please make a compassion video of horizon devices Apex preamp and mooer preamp live for us?

[@werebass1485]

Why do people care about weight? It’s all about sound baby!!!! I’ll bring a tractor if I have to in order to get the sound I want!

@@PeterVenkman_666 yeah

[@PariahVSGear]

Nice! Orange hasn't really been on my radar... maybe I'm doing it wrong haha

[@Infectouss]

Orange is still a huge brand that I love, however they do sound super thin with Single coils.....I'd highly recommend beefing up the tones with a pedal of sorts!!! BTW!!!!!! WHAT'S UP MIAMI DOLPHIN!!!! HYPE HYPE!!! URM!!

[@vyktamus]

You did the review right brother. Thanks for this. I definitely hit the sub and like buttons. Thank you.

[@jsowder19]

Why do an amp review if it’s going to be mastered and mixed and all that? Have the times ran through a computer and everything else?

[@Dmitry___S.]

What about *Black Rooster Audio* *Free* Orange(more like Seafoam Green) *Amp-Sim?* +, maybe, Orange IR cab from Lancaster Audio = 8 kg(17,637 lbs) of cheap Ecuadorian Oranges! *',:*D*

[@xxbrkdwnxx]

and people say the Rockerverb can't do metal. lol

[@XanderYTV]

Never heard anyone say that lol. Throw an overdrive pedal in front of it and you can even get those mid heavy modern metal tones.

[@brownie4032]

Who the hell said that

[@garrettwilson9664]

The guitarist for gatecreeper uses one. Wata from Boris uses one too. Tons of metal guitarists use them. I've never heard anyone say they cant be used for metal. Orange amps are known for sludge and doom stuff.

[@cevikmetalcovers]

I own the 50w mkIII: It's hard to do metal if you need to play fast because the amp is loose so that you feel you cannot play holy wars for example... I need to put some pedals in it and the quality fall down (more noise, squeaking bottom strings, harsh mids). For reamping, it's perfect because you don't have the feeling problem by the way. Feel free to check out my channel if you want to hear !

[@jdown4533]

I just bought one used and it’s super noisy with a noise suppressor Way too noisy Anyone else experience this?

[@kambion]

Bro... your advice is basically "buy the Crush series because it's like way cheaper and not as heavy to lift"... what an ass review. Those amps sound nothing like each other.

[@brandonkeller478]

kambion I know right it only weighs 50lbs like man up for real

[@toemasmeems]

Y'all are gay

[@toemasmeems]

The crush amps are actually lit btw

[@c.f.pedraza4057]

@@toemasmeems no one said the crush wasnt lit.

[@bellmeisterful]

Cept were not checking out the Rockerverb. What were checking out is him jamming. The sound has been hit with hi and lo pass filters and compression. lol All these guys with these channels do this. Its like, Hey Im gonna demo this amp or these pickups...but we dont get anything out of it cos of the mix they do to it. Its really just a way to make a bunch of people watch them play their generic riffs

[@FLAMENCO961]

Have you tried to put a fuzz or distortion in front of the amp already a little distorted? Cr120/60 do not do this very well, that makes me think if I should buy the crush version amp, I am courious about how the rockerverb does it

[@kambion]

LOL Orange should just come with a gain knob, and a midrange knob. That's it.

[@ErikEkholm]

Why do I get a Slipknot vibe from this?

[@BigTopher69]

Jim Root from Slipknot uses Orange amps almost exclusively, check out his signature terror head, it rules

[@Shadowrunner340]

@@BigTopher69 Specifically, he uses Rockerverbs. I'm not really a fan of Slipknot, but you can't accuse Jim of having bad tone! And his sig amp is awesome! I'm a proud owner of one. I'm also a regretful former owner of the very amp demo'd in this video. I should never have gotten rid of it! Had the matching cab, too.

[@kambion]

Love how they reverse the treb/bass knobs... just orange being dumb.

[@maulalex08]

Orange being quirky 🤪🤪

I want one but at $2,400 and needing a fork lift to move it gives me pause.

[@covenantpickups8315]

#WishGranted tube loud heavy!

[@AuntAlnico4]

I have to be honest HERE, I would have to say that I will stick with my Orange CR120 head because it has the tone that I like ((vintage classic Rock)) without all the fizz that this rockerverb HAS.

[@Josev-TV]

aunt jenifer Really? I’m thinking of getting the CR120 but I was maybe thinking, why not go all out and get the rockreverb. At this point I’m not sure what to get.

[@adamalexanderray]

Jose if you’re thinking about the CR120 just do it! I’ve got one and it sounds really good on both channels and the reverb sounds great too. I was running mine through both a 4x12 and 2x12 earlier and it sounded absolutely amazing.

[@bradg23]

the cr120 head has a great clean channel, but the dirty channel is absolute trash. It is so hollow and fake sounding. I have one and a dark terror as well and there is absolutely no comparing the two. Dark terror blows the cr120 out of the water completely, especially for only like $200 more.

[@MR-um9ck]

@@bradg23 CR120 dirty channel blows this trashy Rockerverb away. The Rockerverb is fizzy and scratchy.

[@tylerdod9838]

One of the worst demos of the clean tone . I played through this amp the other day and the clean sound was much better sounding than this 😂

[@ianstrickland5280]

55 pounds is nuts

If they just kept the cleans and reverb of the Mkii, it would’ve been perfect.

Not really, heavy music is exactly what the amp was designed for.

[@micahwatz1148]

Its called heavy metal

[@wesleywhite9782]

soooo much fizz

[@adamizer85]

With the gain past 2 o'clock, yes I agree there is. You dont really need to go past that for a great overdriven tone tho

[@ruliendres9802]

Why does everyone demoing this amp play downtuned bar-core music?

[@DeadShred9]

Oh the Amp yeah sounds good but it doesn't do anything my $200 dollar Boss Katana cant do with out breaking the bank . I can shred and eat and pay my bills LOL Seriously Orange have damn good Amps as does Blackstar , Yamaha ect. so on if you can afford it get it and play . More people making music the better the World is !!!!!!!!!

Purely subjective, champ. Tell that to Jason Richardson lol

[@DeadShred9]

Yeah WHO is he like a Vai or Satch those names everyone knows not just a sub-genre group .

[@terrylafauci791]

Its sub-genre because people can't seem to recognize new talent all the while crying about wanting something new and different. I happen to LOVE Vai and Satch too as well as guys like Lynch, Becker, Rhoads, ect. But some of these new guys like Andy James, Jason Richardson, and Angel Vivaldi are as talented as they come. You should check them out.

[@DeadShred9]

Im not gonna disagree other then that I haven't heard any newer bands that excite me like the old 80's bands . Lynch is the reason I started playing Guitar . The few newer bands I have checked out weren't doing anything I haven't heard done better . I'm biased I freely admit but I'm also over 50 so kinda locked into those great 80's bands and guitarist's . If you enjoy that's awesome Godspeed and Rock & Roll ..

[@terrylafauci791]

@@DeadShred9 I do, I love it all. From sabbath, Van Halen and Vaughan to the newer crazy stuff, I like it all. I'm 33 though, I was raised on the things my mom and uncles liked, GnR, AC/DC, older Metallica, Priest, and things like that. Although I shifted as I got older, I still enjoy the older stuff too. 🤘
