Surprising that this gets great clean sounds..the effects loop is extra quiet and perfect for a pedal reverb or other 'light' effect

Comments about Orange Amplifiers Tiny Terror TT15JR Jim Root #4 Signature 15W Tube Guitar Amp Head:
First of all, this is a really great amp. The sound is fantastic and it has all the gain I could ever imagine wanting. Also, the gain is quite warm and does not have the same fizzy voicing that the Dark Terror suffers from.
Unfortunately, this amp did not work for me since I bought it for bedroom use. It is super loud! You'd think you'd be able to turn the volume down and it'd sound great but that isn't the case here. The volume on the 7 watt setting really needs to be at about 10 o'clock in order for the tubes to be pushed and for the sound to clean up. Anything 9 o'clock or lower and there is a major change in the amp's voicing. It's not that it's a bad sound, it just doesn't sound anywhere near as good as when the tubes are pushed.
The gain buzz is pretty noisy when not playing so you might want to invest in a noise gate if you plan on using this in a live setting.
The harmonics are amazing! Whether you're using traditional harmonics or pinch harmonics both ring out clear as a bell and are super easy to perform. Palm muting is also a metal player's dream! Very tight and punchy.
If volume is not an issue then you'll love this amp! It really does sound like a miniature Rockerverb without the reverb option, and that alone makes this one fantastic deal!

Comments about Orange Amplifiers Tiny Terror TT15JR Jim Root #4 Signature 15W Tube Guitar Amp Head:
I went down to a local guitar store over the weekend and spent a good amount of time with this amp head plugged into a Mesa Boogie 4x12 cabinet loaded with Celestion V30s. It took a very long time to dial in a sound even close to what I like (bright, tight and crisp 5150/6505ish sound) until I placed an Ibanez TS9 infront of it. I used a Musicman John Petrucci signature loaded with dimarzio pickups as well as a Godin redline loaded with EMGs. With both guitars, with/without the TS9, the amp was really noisy so I recommend gating it.
Moving on to the sound. With the petrucci guitar, i really struggled with the sound. The bottom end was loose, deep and lacked clarity but this provided a base for a nice Nu-metal tone, just not my thing. Rolling back the volume produced a lovely tone. Using the volume knob can really clean up the sound nicely and that adds lots of versatility.
When I used the EMG-loaded guitar, the difference was noticeable. It tightened and brightened up quite a bit. The sound was crispier and chords rang clear. I was able to dial in a decent metalcore sound with the help of the TS9. EMGs seemed to bring out the best in this amp in terms of the sound in MY head.
General comments: There are good sounds to be had from this amp if you spend a lot of time tweaking it. It is extremely loud even for a 15 watt head. Having the volume between 1 and 2 is quite loud for bedroom use. It definitely has plenty of volume for gigging but im not sure how the amp holds up at higher volume (above 4) in terms of clarity. You will definitely need a noise gate and a tubescreamer/overdrive pedal is a worthwile investment to make along with this amp.

Comments about Orange Amplifiers Tiny Terror TT15JR Jim Root #4 Signature 15W Tube Guitar Amp Head:
This is one beastly little amp. I run it through my orange ppc 112 and it can get pretty loud for 15w. All the gain you need is there as well. Throw on an OD for that extra saturation and you'll have that brutal tone. Well maybe except for that super high gain Dimebag Darrell distortion. Cleans are decent. You will have to roll off the distortion as this amp is single channel which is based off the Rockerverb 100 gain channel. It's definitely worth the price.

Comments about Orange Amplifiers Tiny Terror TT15JR Jim Root #4 Signature 15W Tube Guitar Amp Head:
The Jim Root Terror is a great upgrade to the Tiny Terror, including a 3-band eq and effects loop. Comparing this to my Rockerverb 50 mkII, the tone is there. No clean channel or reverb, and very much limited by the el84s in output and headroom. Great clean, slight breakup and heavy distortion tones at house-friendly volumes. Don't expect any clean tones while playing with a full band. In fact, with the amount of bass available in the preamp, a person runs out of headroom real fast at louder volumes, making it tough to cut through a full band, much less have any room for solo boosts. Gotta mic this one up. Speaking of bass, it's loose, maybe more so than the Rockerverb, but tightens up nicely with an od pedal out front. The effects loop works great with my delay and eq pedals. Overall, a great little amp for anything from vintage stoner rock to more modern metal, thick with plenty of harmonics, great for house and studio, needs mic'd at gigs. Get your Orange Rockerverb gain channel on the cheap.
