Prestigious guitar amp manufacturer Orange Amps we targeted by thieves earlier this month, who stole a container load of amps, worth over £60,000, from the company's Borehamwood warehouse.
Part of the first UK shipment of the new Orange Tiny Terror Combo guitar amps, launched at the Frankfurt music exhibition earlier this year, the thieves made off with 141, which sell for £439 each. So far, only 121 have been distributed to shops, making it quite a sought after item (its counterpart, the Tiny Terror, has sold over 30,000 units).
Police have launched a major investigation into the theft and Orange Amps are offering a £5000 reward for information. More information (and serial numbers of all the stolen amps) available from www.orangeamps.com.
