    Sounds fantastic! This is the first demo that I can really hear the character of this amp, and I've heard a dozen demos. I've been on the fence, but I believe that this demo has firmly pushed me into the pro side. I look forward to hear your review of the 50!

    Okay here's the middle brother of the Origin series amplifiers. Please keep in mind I shot all these videos the same and I do own a different top 😆. Do you like the sound of this one better than the 5? Would you buy it over a Princeton or a Blues Junior for example? Lemme know. ☺️ Forgive the annotation error in there too. The new plugin has the blues!

      Over a Princeton - nope, over a Blues Junior? All day long! Thank you for another great review. I'm quite enjoying my Origin 20H, but I'm seeing a TON OF FAIL on some of the YT demos. This is not a plug n play amp. It can be beaming and bright as a lot of Marshalls are. Good to see you roll back that presence and treble. That's what these amps need. I don't think there's any help for the 5 watt version, but with the 20 and up, - pump that bass, roll back the presence and treble, play with the tilt. There's a killer sweet spot in there, just takes some knob turning. Thanks for all you do Shane!

      I have some new plugins. It appears after you edit some fo them you need to check a box. 🤕 I had a 12 hour day filming and editing all these Marshall videos and I guess I either missed the checkbox or the plugin was dodgy. I reckon it was an oversight haha.

      Do you have the chance to review the new Laney LA30BL amp? This is the one amp that excites me the most right now :) Apart from that I'd probably get one of the origin heads and hook it up to external speaker cabs.

      Princeton is a clean amp, difficult to compare. But for crunch this one. Vs a blues junior, hmm... I never really like blues junior amp. I like to heard them on videos but eatch time i tried one, i was not convinced. I had a deluxe reverb, great amp for clean, but for crunch, even with pedals i prefer old school Marshall tone .

    The 20 sounds so much better than the 5, even on low power mode it was sounding better. It'd be interesting to hear how the combo compares to the head version with a 12" speaker cab if you can arrange something with Sky Music.

      @@Ironworthstriking I just played this amp at GC last weekend and it has beautiful cleans, warm & harmonically rich but with zero breakup. Unless my eyes are deceiving me, the gain knob is pulled out (i.e., boost is on) for the "clean as it's gonna get" segment, which is kind of ?!?. Whether that's true or not, I can attest that the 20C does get a LOT cleaner than that, and at pretty robust volume levels.

  • @davidede7778
    @davidede7778 6 лет назад +3

    I think a lot of it has to do with the speaker / cabinet. The origin combo 5W and 20W have speakers smaller than 12" (which 12" is kind of the "standard"). Combine that with the "tilt" and presence control, and they might be too trebly / lacking in bass. But if you do the 50W 1x12 or buy the 20W head and at least a 1x12 cabinet (I have a 1x12 celestion greenback cab) then it might be better.

    • @NoStringsAttached777
      @NoStringsAttached777 6 лет назад

      I don't know that the speaker diameter is the issue. The best sound I can get out of my new DSL20HR head , VHT Special 6 Ultra, Laney 15 watt Cub head B52 60 watt etc is running them into 2 cabinets loaded with the Jensen 10" Alnico P10R speakers. Sadly, these amps don't sound anywhere as good into my large cabinet with Weber and Eminence speakers. So tone quality not size? I have read Marshall put a fairly crap model Celestion in the new DSL20CR, so that makes me wonder why?

  • @Rockerrobin
    @Rockerrobin 6 лет назад +2

    Wish amp companies would stop using 10" speakers especially in tube amps considering the cost. Sure some like 10" but I think the majority prefer a 12" even on 1watt amps.

    • @guitarocd9984
      @guitarocd9984 6 лет назад +1

      I'm sure they know it sounds better with a 12-inch speaker. But they want you to buy the more expensive 50 watt. What other reason could there be. just my thoughts.

  • @Armagedon197238

    I am very happy with my head 20 w. I use it on a CAB ORANGE PPC112. Use at home. I had to spend a little time on the EQ to have good tones. This amp is too bright with the defaut setting. For my taste, 25% of presence, 25% of tilt, 40% of treeble, 60/70% of bass, medium at twelve.
    Very good results with my guitars (2 strats, 1 telecaster, 1 gibson SG) and pedals. I was surprised by my Telecaster Elite with its noiseless pickups, it goes perfectly with this amp. With the attenuator, this amp can be used at home without any problem in the low or middle position. I dont plan to gig with, but i think the 50w ll be the right choice for that. This 20w is not a beast in clean mode. Or maybe with a larger cab it should do the work.

    The great thing about the origin series is that it forces you to really work at learning how to get the sounds you want by learning how to play properly. After 40 years of trying I am sure I must be nearly there ! Seriously why buy a Marshall with anything less than 100 Watts ?

    • @johnnorth9355

      Agreed (although I never overpowered my drummer !) - I said that with tongue very firmly in cheek. Like most guitar players I do home use only these days (probably 30+ years since I used a 100 watt Marshall) so even my 30 watt MG DFX combo is banned from the house and I have to make do with a Rowland micro cube most of the time :) . As we get older we are just left with our dreams.

The only sound which is half acceptable was on the 3 watt setting and the 1/2 watt setting is not nice either. Total waste of money, absolute garbage. People been taken for a ride by Marshall. Just on a final note my 2017 Marshall DSL40c has got that Super lead / JTM tone I even played the newer DSL40r with the 2 extra master volumes and that amp is very mediocre as well

    Sounds great. Night and day compared to the 5. I'm waiting till the autumn to upgrade my DSL 5 which has a 12" stuffed in it. Either DSL40 or one of the bigger Origins. You did a good job showing the 20 can create a full bodied warm and even raunchy tone. And I really like that you can drop the power down to such a low level. Would be cool to see how well the DSL40 plays as a bedroom amp compared to the origins. I mostly play at home and my DSL5 has quite a loud noise floor for what it is.

I thought we my kid sleeping next store I could try and crank it on the lowest wattage. Nope. It was way too loud. The full power setting is crazy loud in the room. It's way loud enough for a hard hitting drummer. My issue is I cannot crank it on low wattage mode to get that overdriven Marshall tone, it's too loud. So I have to back it off and use pedals to get more drive. It sounds great but even in the lowest setting it's just too loud cranked for a bedroom. Not sure if the head is supposed to be that way, or mine is broken.

    I love the vintage look and style of the origin . But I heard the Marshall CL amp and it seems to have more versatility and punch than the origin. I like the look better iof the origin. I know you should not base your choice on asthetics, but I can't make up my mind.

    The 10" speaker don't feed the pussycat for me! Never heard an amp that didn't sound tons better after swapping a 10" speaker for a 12".

  • @peterholyman489
    @peterholyman489 6 лет назад +2

    Hello Shane from the uk. I bought the 20 watt head. I am running it with a single 12" Vintage 30 speaker cab. Its plenty loud for gigs. I compared the combo to the head and the extra speaker size of the 12" compared to the cpmbo's !0" speaker makes a massive difference.

    • @intheblues
      @intheblues  6 лет назад +1

      Absolutely man. 12" speakers always kill a 10" one. Cabinet size makes a massive difference as well. I look forward to trying the head at some point through a 4x12 :-)

    • @somoslasfieras
      @somoslasfieras 27 дней назад

      Vintage 30 speakers are super loud...but for me the right choice
      would be greenbacks,which are not very loud...so i still dont know
      if the 20w head would be loud enough to do gigs loaded with a 2x12 cab with greenbacks...
      i guess the crunch sound will be enough,but about the clean sound,im not that sure...

  • @strat-mj9ry
    @strat-mj9ry 6 лет назад +2

    Greetings, so for home use only, would you recommend the Origin 20W combo or the Blues Jr IV you demoed recently? Know they are different kind of sounds, but figure one can always use a Marshall in a box pedal for the Fender. Cheers.

    • @jonmorris9645
      @jonmorris9645 3 года назад +1

      I've got both. I use the blues Jr for gigs regularly. It is small and tavels easily but can still be miked for gigs. The Marshall is just as loud, maybe next gig I'll try that one.

    @peterschmidt9942 6 лет назад

    It definitely sounds much better than the 5W, but there's still something that's "off" about it I can't put my finger on - Might be the 10" speaker. Be interesting to run an ext out to a bigger speaker. Maybe the 50W will surprise?

  • @Craig_Fussell
    @Craig_Fussell 6 лет назад +3

    This is more of a review of how the Origin 20C takes pedals. But without a 12" speaker or decent clean tones this amp wouldn't be for me. Bassbreaker and Blues Jr sound better to my ears.

  • @nycLPplayer
    @nycLPplayer 6 лет назад +5

    honestly sounds terrible but the demo is appreciated....maybe the 50w will be better but most the demos would make me thing this thing needs mods/tubes/speaker

    I couldnt decide between this and the Artist Tweed 20c, so I bought both, thats all I will ever need, love this amp, but using the Celestion G12H 30W Anniversary model, what a difference in sound.

  • @sbadali1
    @sbadali1 6 лет назад

    Thanks Shane!
    But I think this speaks more to the quality of your pedals vs. the unaffected tone of the amp.
    I have test-driven the 20W; not for me.
    I’m leading towards a handwired Vox... you get what you pay for.

    • @jarrydee2799
      @jarrydee2799 5 лет назад

  • @bennyshreds
    @bennyshreds 2 года назад

    Great demo! I'm wondering if it uses 20 watts on all three power settings or is it actually more 'efficient' on lower settings. I use a torpedo reload on my 50w but always feel like I'm abusing the amp or wasting tube life or jacking up my electric bill lol

    • @intheblues
      @intheblues  6 лет назад

      Okay for playing at home both of these amps are too loud unless you live in a house and you might be alright. I think tonally the Blues Junior is a much better amp but trust your ears. Play them both and see which one you like more.

    Is this amp better than a Fender Blues Junior? I love fender cleans more than anything but something about this amp makes me want it over the blues Junior. Can I make this amp sound similar or better than a blues Junior when playing blues music with pedals? If so how?? Would you recommend this amp for blues or just stick with the classic fender

    • @somoslasfieras
      @somoslasfieras 27 дней назад

      i guess it depends on the music you play...if you need cleans loud,get the Fender,
      if dont,get the Marshall...

  • @TimBrannen
    @TimBrannen 6 лет назад

    I def like this one better than the Origin 5. I was really wanting to pick one of these up but after watching vids I think I'll stay with the BassBreaker15. The Origins just sound a bit muffled to me, in vids anyways. I was hoping for a bit more early 70s AC/DC-ish tone I guess.

  • @buzzwilson9346

    I'm going to be buying the 20w head as soon as I find one in stock. If not I'll go for the DSL head. Both sound great to me, but I prefer the power output selections on the Origin, and it's alot cheaper too.
    And dude, that's a beautiful PRS! Is that the Erza Verde colour?

      I just bought a Origin 20 primarily for the switchable power. I have a 100 watt fender that I rarely get It cooking, but I can the Marshall. I'm tickled to death with it. I'm not saying you'll be, but I am. Also running an effects board with it, but only using delay, reverb and a little gain. Hope this helps you. Any questions feel free to ask.
