It stumps me... tho' I am an electro-idiot. Its out of an Orange 20 Bass Crush...

I am guessing 220 ohms +/- 5%

I think you're picture reads right to left and it's 2.2k +/-5% but it's hard to tell what some of the colours are.

you should be safe with carbon film if it's going in a solid state amp.
