Orange Rockerverb 50 into Orange 4x12 cab, Harmony H-802 / Gibson Firebird V

The original Orange Rockerverb 50 has a thick, saturated British low-mid structure. Setting the Katana 50 MkII to the Crunch voice with mids pushed to 7 and treble at 7 replicates the cut and punch without fizz. Your Ibanez ceramic bridge humbucker has high output, so keeping amp gain at 6 provides the ideal percussive saturation without turning muddy during palm mutes.
