Description

Building upon the success of the previous iterations, the flagship AD200 (v2) has been revamped with the needs of modern bass players and versatility at the forefront of the design re-envision.

The AD200 provides the coveted Orange bass tone that has been the backbone of some of the most thunderous and regarded bass rigs. Famed for its ear-splitting low-end, resonant mids and clear highs as well as its energetic and cutting gain structure, the AD200 delivers on all fronts. What differs in this latest version is it’s even more powerful clean headroom. Thanks to some switchable clever circuitry in conjunction with a quartet of powerful KT88 valves, the AD200 can be pushed even harder without breaking up allowing you to achieve a more modern, cleaner tone. The AD200 can now do it all from loud and dynamic cleans to full-on classic Orange fuzz!

Key Features

  • Powered by KT88’s – The updated AD200 comes optimised for a quartet of KT88 valves for a bolder and clearer tone.
  • Clean Switch – After a crisper, cleaner and more modern-sounding clean Bass tone?… No Problem! The Clean Switch helps tame the amps break up and gain at high volumes.
  • Made in the UK – The AD200 is proudly built in the UK utilising premium components and build quality. Finished in the timeless ‘Orange’ styling with a pics-only front panel.

Simplicity is Key!

The AD200 is built to be uncomplicated. It was designed with the premise that less is more and that the least interference between the bass and the speaker is in fact better. This all-analogue, all-valve tone machine features a powerful but simple 3-band EQ, gain and volume controls as well as the clean switch. There is an input for active and passive basses, a choice of different speaker outs as well as a slave output. There’s nothing extra as there doesn’t need to be, it’s a testament to an old-school way of thinking and proof of how sometimes the answer to something that can very easily become complicated is in fact quite often a simple, but very well thought-out solution.

Amp Heads

An amp head contains the core tone and power of a guitar amplifier without the built-in speakers, allowing you to pair it with the cabinet of your choice. This setup offers greater flexibility over sound and volume, as different speaker cabinets can dramatically change the feel and character of the amp. Amp heads are available in valve, solid-state, and hybrid designs, ranging from low-wattage studio models to high-powered touring rigs. They’re ideal for players who want a modular setup, precise control over their tone, and the ability to adapt their rig to different venues, cabinets, or recording situations.
