RECOMMENDED — not currently owned (run direct into amp input)
The Orange Crush 20 has a naturally warm, mid-forward analog voice, so the treble is pushed high and the bass and mids are pulled back to replicate the glassy Roland JC-120 hi-fi direct sound. The Crush 20 lacks onboard reverb and presence controls, so maximum top-end clarity relies on the treble EQ and clean headroom. With the recommended stereo chorus and plate reverb pedals added, the full signature '80s lush shimmer is fully realized.
