What did you get for Christmas? My lovely girlfriend gave me this sweet little Orange Micro Crush. Looks awesome, right? Totally retro cool and portable 3 watt amp with a 4 inch speaker powered by a 9 volt battery. It also has a tuner. So how does it sound? You get a fairly clean sound if you leave it on clean and a very raunchy Orange distorted sound on Overdrive. And it does go fairly loud. All in all, it sounds a little less like a toy than my Fender Mini ’57 Twin amp but nowhere near as nice as my Yamaha THR10C (10 watts with two 3.15 inch speakers). So I’d say it’s still a toy–but an affordable, fun, portable toy and the tuner is a real plus. More pics after the jump!
