green amps?

Has anybody tried or even seen one before or have even heard of these? I was looking at some random orange sites and found these green amps... are they just the american hand made version of orange?

Peculiar. Has built in delay? I wonder if they just have vintage-y tones or of their more versatile?

i've read about matamp... and electric amps... and green amps... and all the amps are quite similar... but matamp is run in the UK and electric amps from the US...

i beleive orange amps was once apart of electric/matamps. so it's not like a knockoff or anything.

a friend of mine has an electric 6x12 cab and it's fuckin sick as hell. i think he even con'd both the guitarists from clifton into selling their four 1960's off for a couple electric 6x12's.

Matamp used to own Orange in the '60s and '70s. The Electric amp company is in the US and basically just builds vintage GTO's and GTL's as close as possible to those made in the '70s, unlike what Matamp is doing these days and making them with lower wattage.

Anyway, if you'd like to hear a Matamp, just listen to the first two High On Fire albums, Sleep, Om, Yob's first album, and Starchild's albums. Pretty much is the amp for stoner rock.
