A Classic, Resurrected

The Terror Bass hybrid head is something of a household name among bassists. Even after being discontinued, it remained a highly sought-after model, though elusive. Now Orange have brought it back to life with a couple of tweaks that look set to reaffirm its place among the most popular bass amps in the market.

500W of Hybrid Power

The Terror Bass features a valve preamp and solid state power amp, offering a gutsy, responsive tone that far outweighs its price point. Valve bass tone at this price is a rarity, and Orange have delivered in spectacular fashion.

Orange have specifically voiced this updated version to reflect the ever-popular tone of the AD200, a 100% valve behemoth. They’ve also kept the intuitive front panel layout but with an added clean switch, providing a little extra smoothness and headroom when needed. You’ve also got a pad switch that rounds 6db off the input sensitivity for dynamic sound regardless of your instrument.

Key Features

  • Class D Power Amplifier – The Terror bass is a 500 Watt hybrid amplifier with a valve preamp and a Class D, solid state power section. Analogue valve tone in a portable, compact lunchbox head.
  • Clean Switch – Drive and grit not your thing? Get a crystal clean tone at the flick of a switch.
  • Pad for Active Basses – The pad switch on the front of the Terror Bass reduces input sensitivity by 6dB, meaning the amp is perfect for active or passive basses.
  • FX Loop – The valve-driven FX loop on the Terror Bass is the perfect tool for creating your ideal signal chain.
  • Ground Lift – Eliminates any ground loop noise when using the Balanced Output.

  • Features: Single Channel, Hybrid – Class D Power Amp With Valve Preamp, Clean Switch, Variable Input Sensitivity For Active Or Passive Basses, Balanced Di Out, Fx Loop

Head Amplifier

A head is the amplifier unit of a guitar rig that contains the electronics responsible for shaping and boosting your guitar’s signal. Unlike combo amps, a head does not include built-in speakers and needs to be connected to a separate speaker cabinet. This setup offers greater flexibility, allowing players to mix and match different heads and cabinets to tailor their tone and volume. Heads come in various types, including valve (tube), solid-state, and modelling, catering to a wide range of sounds and playing styles.
