That looks very nice!

Must be quite a project to design it.

Which functions on the foot switch? Loop as well?

[martinw]

Thanks.  :)
Its a fairly straightforward design, but it seems to do the job.

The footswitch controls channel (clean and overdrive) and a gain boost on the overdrive channel.

That's an understatement mate, you know what I think of it!  :D

It looks fantastic - very impressive.  8)

i have been wondering for some time about a new amp with a more classic "british" rock sound and reasonable levels of gain.  this looks very interesting!  wondering though, will there be a 50watt version? (i'm assuming this one is 100watts) or would power scaling be a better option? 

[Twinfan]

Martin can build you one to your spec.  If I remember rightly, mine is 60-ish watts.

Power Scaling can be added if required, although to be honest the preamp and master volume are so good you don't really need it.

[martinw]

Yours is 45W clean, and 60-ish clipping, Dave.  :)

It's also available with 90 watts clean.

Ta!  :)

That rear shot of the Orion does look lovely. I particularly like all 9 valves being placed in a straight line - aesthetically pleasing to me.

[dave_mc]

that looks very nice indeed. though a lot of the amps on your site look very nice (i really like the look of that maroon one, i think it's a roadstar?)... :)
