Manufacturer's Description for Orange BT1000H Terror Bass 1000 Amplifier Head with Gig Bag, 1000 Watts

Menacing tone in a compact package! The Orange BT1000H Terror Bass 1000 Bass Guitar Amplifier Head combines a super efficient Class D solid state power section with the same preamp as their all tube AD200B UK bass amp. That twin 12AX7 preamp gives the Terror Bass 1000 head the ability to give warm clean tone, creamy overdrive, or all out low-end grind.

Amazingly, the Terror Bass 1000 has the same compact dimensions as the other Terror series guitar amps. A gain knob allows you to dial in classic Orange bass grind at any volume and the 3 band EQ allows for easy tone shaping. The single input on the Terror Bass 1000 features an Active/Passive switch to match the output of virtually any bass. With its rugged design, high end components and undeniably awesome looks, the Orange Terror Bass 1000 amp head is sure to be a future classic!

Note: The Bass Terror does not require re-biasing when replacing tubes. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Orange Amplification products.

Customer Reviews
5 out of 5 (3 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Big Sound in a small, reliable package!"
Sound: I bought this amp two weeks ago so I'm still getting used to it, but from what I've learned so far, it should be the last amp I buy for a long time. The sound of this amp is perfect for someone who wants a classic rock tube sound of the 70s, but doesn't want to worry about as many tubes as those amps and can't afford the $2000 Orange head. The sound I'm getting is perfect for what I play, alternative rock with a hint of Zep, Cream, Rush, and Sabbath. I combine it with Tech21's Leeds pedal, but I don't know if I need that pedal as much as I did when I was playing through a solid state GK amp. I also own a Mesa Boogie 400+, but it has just become too cumbersome and heavy, and when 12 tubes get worn out on it can get expensive! As for loudness, obviously at 1000 watts this thing is really loud! I play a Fender Precision Deluxe with active pickups through a 8x10 Ampeg cabinet and have only needed to turn the volume and gain up to the "9 o'clock" area for practice, and for the stage, not much more than that. We are recording an album now, and the engineer is looking forward to adding the Orange's sound in with his old Ampeg Portaflex. Finally, what I really love is the sustain and slight feedback I get when I hold the Fender up to the cab. I was getting that with the Leeds pedal and GK, but not so much with just the GK. The GK had a great bassy 80s solid state sound, but I (and my band) favor the sound I'm getting out of the Terror. Feature: The gain knob and tube pre-amp really makes this amp. It's a simple feature, but it makes the amp. The mic-output on the side is perfect for clubs. The only thing I wish it had was regular (non-speakon) outputs in addition to the speakon. Not a big deal though. Ease of Use: Plug in and tweak to get your perfect sound. There's nothing to it. The only issue is getting the gain and volume mixed appropriately without getting so loud you overpower the rest of your band. Quality: This is the other kicker with this amp. It's lightweight and I don't have to struggle to get it from point A to point B. It's in a rugged little lunchbox too. I don't feel like I'll have any problems. It comes in a soft case though. I think I will buy a hard case for it because I can be clumsy. Value: At $1 a watt, it's hard to not say this is the best value for an amp. It's got tubes, but it's also solid state so you can really rely on it. Manufacturer Support: I haven't had to deal with Orange, but I do want to add that I did overnight with Zzounds and it did indeed arrive the next day, just in time for a gig! So props to Zzounds for their overnight delivery. Also, the 4 payment plan is what prompted me to buy it here instead of somewhere else. The Wow Factor: So far everyone is asking about it. All my bass playing friends want to take it for a spin. Overall: I hope to never have to replace this amp!

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Awesome sound in a small package."
Sound: This amp is thick and warm, every note is completely full. I play In a cover band and I wouldn't be scared to play any genre with this amp. I own a Ampeg Svt 4-pro and the sound is totally different. I play through a basson 2x10 and its awesome with this amp. Feature: Simple and sweet its got what you need 3 band EQ, gain, and volume. It does have speakon out-puts for the speakers, has lo-z for DI and1/4's for effects loop. Me personally I'm not big on effects on bass unless it helps it fill every note better. Ease of Use: Pulled it out of the box hooked it up put all the knobs at quarter turn and its all I need.
