Orange Rockerverb 50 MKIII Neo 50W 2-Channel Combo Guitar Amplifier, Black

A powerful blend of versatility and quality, the Rockerverb 50 MKIII Neo 50W 2-Channel Combo Guitar Amplifier, in its sleek black finish, is a testament to Orange's commitment to superior sound and innovation. This robust amplifier, first introduced in 2015, has been refined over the years, incorporating valuable user feedback to emerge as an ultimate musical workhorse, excelling in all conditions.The Rockerverb 50 MKIII Neo is renowned for its revoiced clean channel, delivering more chiming tones, brighter, longer reverb, and an improved low-end response and articulation. It carries the trademark crackling Orange tone, a favorite among heavy music enthusiasts, touring musicians, and session professionals.The latest iteration of this amplifier has undergone significant improvements, shedding weight without compromising its appealing sonic characteristics. The Rockerverb 50 MKIII Neo now boasts an updated speaker and cabinet formation, inspired by the PPC212V cab, making it 18% lighter than its predecessor.The amplifier's cabinet is now crafted from 15 mm Baltic birch ply, 3 mm slimmer than before, yet maintaining the robust build quality that Orange cabs are known for. The most substantial weight saving comes from the new pair of UK-built Celestion Creamback speakers, replacing the previous V30s. These speakers, made from neodymium, a highly magnetic metal, save almost 3 kg per speaker while delivering the same beautiful-sounding results.The Creambacks not only make the amplifier easier to carry but also handle the Rockerverb 50's tone even better. They retain the authoritative high-mid push of the V30s but offer a darker, fuller tone when breaking into overdrive. This results in more muscular and rounded lead lines and warmer, fatter rhythm playing.The Rockerverb 50 MKIII Neo is equipped with a versatile twin-channel design, offering a range of tone-shaping options from sparkly cleans to ultra-saturation, always with outstanding clarity. It features a footswitchable spring reverb with a long, glistening tail, a built-in attenuator for maxed-out textures at neighborhood-friendly volumes, switchable power options, and a near-transparent buffered effects loop for the pedal purist. All these features are now available in a more manageable weight, making the Rockerverb 50 MKIII Neo an even more attractive choice for musicians.
