A near immaculate, hardly used example of the superb, criminally underrated Marshall Origin 50 Head with Marshall Origin 2x12 Cab. This thing has proper Marshall tone for days, and with the beautiful 212 Cab can either pack a punch or be living room friendly owing to it's attenuator options and handy master volume control.
Head
Classic Marshall
The Origin amps use 3x ECC83 preamp valves and 2x EL34 power valves to generate those classic British tones. Gritty and powerful with a strong mid-range presence, these amps can easily cut through the mix for guitar solos or hold down the rhythm section.
Effects Loop & Emulated Output
The Origin amps have got an effects loop for you to run your delays, reverbs and mods into. This is especially handy if you use the drive from the amp. And it’s got an emulated output for silent recording or for running a direct sound to the front of house PA system when playing a gig.
Tilt Control – 2 Preamp Voicings
The Origin amps have got 2x preamps voicings and you can blend between the 2 using the ‘Tilt’ control knob next to the EQ section. The two voicings are Normal and High Treble which you can tailor depending on the type of guitar you’re using. A dark sounding guitar with humbuckers might want more treble for example.
Cab
Marshall have done a great job nailing that classic 60s British tone with their Origin series, but one piece has been missing until now... cabs! The Marshall Origin series has now expanded to included 2x12 and 4x12 cabs in both straight and angled configurations for you to create your own Marshall stack. Marshall stacks helped shaped the sound of rock 'n roll from the 60s onward thanks to the volume Marshall cabs were capable of producing.
These cabs feature that iconic early Marshall styling for a vintage aesthetic and are installed with Celestion speakers to perfectly suit the tones that the Origin series is capable of producing. Whether you just want a half-stack or you're going all out with a 4x12 full stack, the Origin series cabs will help you get that classic look and sound.
