Be honest... did you know Orange made a bass? 👀🟠

After an initial run in 2015, Orange brought back the O Bass in 2022. Designed in the heart of London's West End by Orange Technical Director and lead designer Adrian Emsley, the O Bass was inspired by Emsley's deep love and knowledge of classic gear as well as his time spent working with bass players in 1990s Los Angeles 🎸

Teacher Feature!

Meehan Bindra is a multi-instrumentalist and music educator who holds a Bachelor of Music from McGill University’s Schulich School of Music, specializing in Jazz Guitar with a focus in Music Education. He is fluent in both English and French. With over six years of teaching experience, he has worked with students of all ages and skill levels in both private and group settings, developing a flexible and student-centered approach to learning. His teaching practice is rooted in adapting to individual learning styles while building strong foundations in technique, theory, and musical expression.

In his work as a music instructor, Meehan has taught guitar, ukulele, piano fundamentals, and early childhood music, with experience ranging from private lessons to structured classroom and summer camp environments. He emphasizes creativity alongside discipline, often integrating improvisation, songwriting, and practical musicianship into lessons to keep students engaged and motivated. Drawing from his background in jazz performance, music technology, and pedagogy, he aims to create lessons that are both structured and exploratory—helping students develop confidence, musical independence, and a genuine enjoyment of playing. His rate is $30.00 per 30 minute lesson.
