About the Orange Dark Terror amp:
The Dark Terror was the first high gain amp in the Terror series. It is a true master of saturated distortion, making it an ideal match for Hard Rock players looking for signature Orange ‘chug’ in a portable package. It features the same 15/7 Watt output section as the Tiny Terror. In addition, it has a low impedance, valve buffered effects loop and the exclusive Orange Shape Control.
The Shape Control, which first appeared on the now discontinued Thunderverb Series, takes your sound from scooped, chunky modern rhythm tones to a more classic voicing with boosted mids and smooth highs. So this makes the amp much more versatile than its single channel, three-knob layout (and black chassis!) might at first suggest.
The preamp features four stages of gain, becoming increasingly aggressive as you turn the Gain control, reaching truly insane levels of drive. Ignore the clean and crunch tones at your peril, though. There are some really tasty Blues tones to be had here!
