Andy Martin's Amplifiers
My main amp is a ‘78 Orange OR120. It’s got the Partridge trannys and is a bit of an odd duck with the stock black tolex.
I rarely use any OD pedals with it because it’s dirty enough! However, it cleans up remarkably well with my guitars since they all have treble bleed caps installed (an easy trick to retain high end when you roll back the guitar volume). The tone is unlike a Marshall; it’s “Foggy” like you might have read but there’s this extra weight you get behind riffs or even single notes that I haven’t found in other amps. It’s a beast!
My other main amp is a JTM45 clone from Metropolis that my Dad built. It too has had some small mods with tone cap and resistor changes. I love the tone of the KT66 tubes, very dynamic and bold. I always jump the two channels to get a little more low end out of it.
I crank it up and scale it down with a Weber Mass 50 and mic a Dead Room ISO cab which I just adore. No more amp simulators for late night recording!
The tolex has this funky cowboy leather look and he built a matching a 2x12 cab (ADA Style) loaded with Celestion V30’s and a little 18 watter project that came out of a Hammond organ.
