A rare vintage 1969 OR-100 Orange Matamp amplifier stack which appeared in an eight-page cover feature in Guitar & Bass magazine Vol 26, No. 05, published in February 2015. Established in 1968, Orange Amps is considered the UK's leading amp manufacturer and has built an impressive list of customers over the years, including Fleetwood Mac, Jimmy Page, Stevie Wonder and Oasis.

The lot comprises an OR-100 amplifier head (serial number 341) with two 12x4 cabs. All three components display the distinctive orange Tolex covering on the exterior, and this particular stack is rare because it does not feature handles. The word "Children" is stencilled on the back of the head in faded white, which may refer to a previous user. There is a cigarette burn on the top edge of one cab and general exterior wear to the Tolex covering. Over the years, this particular stack was the only example of Orange Amps used at AIR Studios. A copy of the magazine is included. Dimensions (head): 24.5 cm x 54.5 cm x 25.5 cm (9 1/2" x 21 1/2" x 10"); (each cab): 30 cm x 78.5 cm x 74 cm (11 3/4" x 31" x 29 1/4")

Contains electronics; see electronics notice in the Buyer's Guide.

Estimate: £3,000 - 5,000 M
