I'm planning to buy an Orange cr50bxt but I heard that it has poor low end, what can you tell me about that, would you recomend this amp (I understand that your's is a 35b) over others 50W amps?
@yellofury they should be fine just wont let them eat sugar so they wont be hyper haha ill order the amp when the bloody rep comes back from their holiday
@LittleBuddah118 yellofury has a good point but i use this amp and use with a hartke 4x10, gig with it and it is plenty loud. Holds up in practice w/o the 4x10 however volume is 80% or higher. The 50 or 100 watt that they make now would probably be all you need. These amps are very round punchy and clear. Compare it to something as light look at the ampeg micro stack. 200 watt and sound nice on youtube. haven't played one 1st hand.
@DuctTape44 I wouldnt try. 35 and 50 watt amps are great for your bedroom
but when you are competing against guitars and drums you are better off getting a head that is at least 300watts driving a 4x10 cabinet. 500 watts is a good round number to shoot for that can cover most gigs. Line 6 and GK make affordable powerful heads just dont ever scrimp on your amp in a gig setting
Need some advice.

what are your thoughts on the amp looking into get 1 just to play pub gigs etc

@LittleBuddah118 I dont think it will be powerful enough for a gig to be honest
something between 300-500 watt combo or stack would be better suited
Does not necessarily have to be expensive either
a 300 watt head and a 2x10 or 4 x 10 cabinet would suffice

@LittleBuddah118 congrats I hope 100 watts is ample for pub gigs
it sould be if your guitarist and drummer behave

Hey yellofury! It's CBFALL! Is this song you're playing on the bass a original or cover? Sounds damn good in my musical ears! :)

Recently replaced with DR HI Beams in the 90 gauge
which are really light and probably not the best for fingerstyle but for slap sound nice and poppy
