'79 Orange super bass

Sign in to disble this ad
So luck played into my hands for a change and I just scored one of these. Information seems to be incredibly sparse . Wondering if talkbass can tell me a little more about them .

Particularly interested in the speaker cab it came with a 4x12 loaded with G12-80 t2873.. I get the impression these we're available in both a guitar and a bass version ?

Any info on either would be awesome!

Upon further research, From the Orange amp forum:

The circuitry of the Super Bass is similar to the OR120s with some notable differences, some of the preamp anode/cathode resistors are totally different, giving a different gain structure, also the feedback resistor is different. Also the coupling caps between stages are 0.1uf rather than 0.068uf, so as to pass more bass presumably.
