The KT88 Vintage Rare Matamp Bass and Guitar Amplifier Head 200W by Orange

The Orange Matamp 200W KT88 is an exceptionally rare early 5-channel PA mixer/amp, produced in very limited quantities during the formative years of Orange Matamp in the UK. This head features 4x original GEC KT88 tubes and ECC83 preamp tubes, paired with all original Partridge transformers, delivering massive clean headroom, deep lows, and the punchy, raw tone that vintage British amps are known for. Recently recapped by a specialist technician, it now performs reliably and safely while retaining its vintage character. Sounds fantastic for both guitar and bass. Its combination of rarity, vintage components, and versatility makes it a highly collectible and desirable amplifier.

Specs:

• Type: Valve amplifier head / 5-channel PA mixer
• Power Output: 200 W RMS
• Power Tubes: 4 × GEC KT88
• Preamp Tubes: ECC83
• GEC KT88 valves and Partridge transformers
• Transformers: Original Partridge transformers
• Controls: 5 channels with basic tone shaping (model-dependent)
• Construction: Hand-wired, robust vintage chassis
• Era: Late 1960s – early 1970s
• Status: Discontinued / vintage collectible
