Orange devotees have already given an enthusiastic thumbs-up for the AD30HTC’s re-styled front plate featuring larger classic-style knobs for each channel’s Master and Gain controls plus the classic Orange hieroglyphics on an orange and black horizontal bar background.

 

“The “New Look” AD30TC is a worldwide change intended to bring the cosmetics of this much-in-demand amplifier in line with the rest of the Orange range,”   says Technical Director, Adrian Emsley.

And the good news is that very soon AD30HTC owners who want to change to the classic-style control knobs can buy them in sets of four direct from this website’s Merchandise  Accessories section.

 

 

The smaller tone control and larger classic-style knobs will also be available as individual items.
