This is the Marshal Origin 50C guitar amplifier. it features 50 watts of power into a single 12″ speaker. This amp is LOUD but the great news is it also features a power attenuation switch so you can switch it down to much lower volumes for home or small club gigs.
Thanks to Sky Music for the loaner

This is by far my favourite of the Origin series. If I was going to buy one, I'd buy this one! ???? Sounds pretty wild! The next video coming up will compare the 50 to the DSL40CR from 2018. These videos were all shot the same day so apologies for the continued dark grey hoodie!
I love my Origin 20 so much I got a second one. I’m not sure what needs redeeming.
This amp is cool! I got a used OR50 head that had a modification where it stays on the 50W mode (which is fine with me) and this amp actually got me back into the Marshall scene as well!
I love the presence and tilt controls are really awesome and responsive, and it takes pedals really well.
What really shocked and sold me was how it can go from rip-roaring overdrive to really nice clean tones all with just the volume of the guitar. Most amps I tried could do this, but there was always a lot of noise that took away from the “cleaner” tone. This amp could retain a good volume, and retain some good tone as it cleaned up!
This is definitely a good affordable “plexi” if you dial it in right, and I love this thing!
Dang, I had 0 idea there were so many "Tone Masters".
Can i plug in a quad cortex? nice video
Just bought the same amp and a brand new Les Paul standard 59 model from Nashville. I was wondering how to set the amp for a crunchier sound more like iron maiden or Judas Priest I use it for practice in a basement and there are three other members in the band, any words will be appreciated
You do some of the best YT reviews and love your playing. Current day April 2024 I was ready to buy the Origin 20 new for $389 but I found a used Origin 50 for $439 USD, 30 more watts, 12" speaker, it's a no brainer!
I use them together, Orig50 and DSL40. 😉 Great amps. Thanks for fantastic videos.
Are the clean tones loud?
This serie sounds broken ????
Sounds great! Could that one be used for late night bedroom playing somehow?
Great demo Shane, I bought this amp for $400 in mint condition on a whim a few years back and love it, it's not going anywhere soon.
The Origin is based more on the JTM 45, Bluesbreaker, Plexis' etc. Whereas the DSL is a more modern style amp, and it's great no doubt. May end up buying one of those as well down the road.
The thing I love the most about the Origins 50c is the ability it to build your tone.
Obviously, you can get gain tone by dimeing the amp etc., and using your volume and tone
controls on the guitar. But it's also crystal clean as well, which I truly love.
But throw a DOD 250, Boss BD-2 or a TS -9 in front and there's where the magic is revealed.
Those who don't like to tinker, or have the confidence to do so, stay away as this amp is not a one-trick pony.
Color me underwhelmed.
Hi folks !!!got an origin 50 c and hitherto am not satisfied with my settings for a blues rock sound (clean tone with pedals)!!!could you please give us examples of your settings ( tilt, presence, bass, trebble , mid ,gain and volume )to help me improving my tone?alain
I’m far from an expert but I think this amp has el34 tubes in it like a plexi. (which makes it have a lot of headroom). It’s not a high gain amp but it can go really loud.
Wow, not liking the tone of this one, or the Code series, or the DSL Marshalls! I'll keep my Mosfet 100!
i wonder if I missed it but did you talk about the type of amp? valve state solid state tube etc.?
I can’t get this amp to get Any fuzz or gain do I need to have the master dimed or relatively high
For me I’ll be doing 70s classic rock and blues/rock like early beano Clapton and Peter green stuff
Love this amp! I got a high gain amp already! Going back to learn old blues rock from the 60s and 70s early Peter Green, bluesbreaker Clapton tones! Etc hopefully it capture that early UFO and thin lizzy tones
Hey man. Which is louder, this or AC30? Just to get an idea, can’t crank all the way up at the store for sure…
Thanks for the great review Shane when you first started started ripping with boost and gain the beginning is that straight in the amp or have you get that going through a pedal? Also if you guys said they don't retest a little but when they played it through a 412 with some greenbacks that took care of that. Could be they just match the ohmage different too. Are used to build cabinets with brand new Sebastian's I was using a lot of the G 12 8° when they came out. I don't think there is a such thing as a bad sounding Celestion they are top-of-the-line. I bought out sold cabinets the Yamaha and he was telling me about Eminence which they make a good lower price speaker but the thing about suggestions as they've been around forever and they're like blow poop I've never seen anybody blow one. I love this stuff ???????????????????????? I have a Kerry king White Marshall stack but I need something to carry around in for the bedroom I even thought 2 of these would be great as a small monitor or front speaker system etc.
This might sound really weird for a comparison, but the two amps I’m considering buying are the Marshall origin 50 or the blues junior, i like them both and they’re not super similar so I’m trying to make my mind up but it’s so hard! Which would you recommend as my first valve amp?
Hmmm, my Origin 50 (Head) sounds NOTHING like this, even through a 1X12 (Fender HR Deluxe extension) cabinet. Mine is MUCH fuller, rounder, sounding like the Plexi's I grew up playing. So, I don't know WHAT is going on, with the one's you're demoing. 😛 If mine had sounded like any of those (THIN and FIZZY), I would never have even considered buying one. But, the head I got, sounds GREAT! I have a 2X12 Marshall cabinet, and a 4X12 1960A cabinet (Usually paired with my 100 Watt TSL). The Origin 50 head sounds great, through all of them. Is it a 100 Watt Hand Wired Plexi? NO! But, it's not 3 grand, either. However, it's a LOT closer, to one of those, than is indicated in these demo's. So, I'm really scratching my head, here, trying to figure out what's going on, with the amps you're demoing. I've watched your demo's of other gear, for quite some time, and usually enjoy them. And, while I don't think YOU did anything different, in your presentation, these "Origin" demos, were painful to hear! 🙁 Hope it was just a "glitch" in the recording, or YouTube sound???
Pancake
Is this just a dsl with different packaging? Cus my dsl …. sucks
Love this amp and the 20 watt
