Classic Rockerverb Tone with a 20% Weight Reduction
Orange’s Rockerverb 50C MkIII Neo builds upon the long-standing Rockerverb legacy by delivering the same classic tones as its previous iteration, but with a significantly lighter weight construction. All of the Rockerverb 50C MkIII’s most beloved qualities are onboard — dual-channel design with sparkling cleans and grinding dirty tones; 50-watt and 25-watt power scaling; true tube spring reverb — but a completely redesigned cabinet and all-new speakers up the portability factor by reducing the amp’s total weight by approximately 20%. Beyond that, dual Celestion Creamback speakers kick out a smoother, more defined tone that seriously ups the Rockerverb 50C MkIII Neo’s tonal flexibility. If you’re after roaring high-gain tube tones but loathe lugging around a heavy tube amp, then the Orange Rockerverb 50C MkIII should be at the top of your list.

Dynamic control with power-scaling and footswitchable attenuation
In a world of high-tech PA systems, digital modeling, and low-wattage lunchbox-style amps, sometimes guitarists can't get away with a screaming 50-watt tube behemoth in the backline. Not on the stage and not in the studio. Now you don't have to give up the feel and tone only offered by those muscular amplifiers with the Rockerverb 50C MkIII Neo. With onboard power scaling, at 50 and 25 watts, you can get those power tubes cooking at volumes that tailor to your situation. And the footswitchable and variable attenuator on the front of the amp can get you those cranked tones at bedroom-level volumes!
Dual Celestion Creamback 12-inch speakers
“Neo” doesn’t just stand for “new” on the Rockerverb 50C MkIII Neo; this amp’s dual setup of 12-inch Celestion Creamback speakers harness the power of neodymium magnets to deliver Rockerverb tone at a significantly lower weight. Moreover, many Sweetwater guitarists favor Celestion Creambacks for their smoother tone and clear, defined attack. It all adds up to a tone that punches out the same high-octane hard rock and metal sounds of the Rockerverb 50C MkIII, but with a slightly more versatile edge.
Scaled-down cab with the same big tone
Compared to Orange’s previous generations of Rockerverb 50C combo amps, the Rockerverb 50C MkIII Neo clocks in at about 80% of their original weight — a welcome change if you’re lugging your Rockerverb up the stairs or on stage! How did Orange so effectively slim the design down without compromising on tone? Two things: an upgraded cab and lighter speakers. The Rockerverb 50C MkIII Neo’s cabinet features the highest-quality 15mm Baltic birch plywood they could acquire — this timber is renowned for its lightweight nature and stunning harmonic resonance. In addition, this amp’s pairing of Celestion Creamback speakers is almost 6kg lighter than the previous model’s V30s to reduce weight and enhance portability.
