Overview

Critic Consensus

The Orange Crush guitar amplifiers are known for their wide ranging tones that are reminiscent of vintage guitar amps, and the Crush 20RT makes our list of best guitar amps under $200. With the crush 20rt, Orange made use of their CabSim circuit to emulate the strength of their larger guitar amplifiers with a builtin reverb and tuner that make the Orange Crush 20rt a steal when compared to other guitar combo amplifiers of the same price range, so its not top of the list for best guitar amps but is worthy.
