Hello!
Ive finally saved $4000 towards a good stack for touring. Ive heard endless praise about Orange amps, but Ive only personally played a Tiny Terror. So this is my question:
Can I get these sounds out of an Orange amp, and if so, which one?

There is 2 guitars in these songs, obviously. Ive tried to do some research into the band and I *think* one guitarist uses a Marshall JCM800, and the other uses an Orange RV50 (50w or 100, I dont know).
So without an immense pedalboard of effects, can I get these distortions and tones out of an Orange amp? I know the Orange amps tend to sound very "vintage" and classic rock-ish .. which is great, but just not what Im looking for, since the band is more of an alternative rock kind of band.
Anyone who takes the time to check out the links and help me out is AMAZING! Thanks in advance!

Hi, Drew.
Sorry, can't really help directly on your question.
I might suggest an email to Orange amps direct to ask about it - You can find contacts at their site http://www.orangeamps.com ,
or email in U.K. at [email protected] or in U.S. [email protected].
You Me At Six is listed as a current artist on the Orange site, though no info is given on equipment.
You might also try leaving a message on the You Me At Six Facebook page asking them about the Orange amps,
or on one of their other sites:
