The Origin20 Head provides a classic all-valve, rich, and harmonic tone in a portable format. Equipped with Powerstem™ technology, this head allows you to switch between 20W, 3W, and 0.5W, making it ideal for playing in different environments—from bedrooms to rehearsal studios and small venues. Designed and engineered in the UK, the ORI20H is the perfect solution for guitarists who want vintage-inspired tube tone with modern control.
Product Description
The Power of Powerstem™: Marshall's innovative power reduction technology ensures you can push your valves to their sweet spot regardless of the environment. Whether you need the full 20W for a gig or 0.5W for late-night practice, your tone remains rich and dynamic.
Classic EL34 Character: Driven by two EL34 power amp valves and three ECC83 preamp valves, the ORI20H delivers the signature British punch, chime, and harmonic complexity that defined the Marshall sound.
Master Your Tone with Tilt: The unique Tilt control allows you to blend your sound between a warm "Normal" voicing and a bright "High Treble" character. It provides the flexibility of a multi-input vintage amp through a single, intuitive dial.
Sculpt Your Style: With a highly responsive 3-band EQ, Presence control for high-end definition, and a Gain Pull-Boost for extra vintage saturation, you have all the tools needed to craft a signature sound.
Footswitchable Versatility: The included 2-way footswitch allows you to control the Gain Boost feature and turn the FX loop on and off, giving you hands-free control during live performances.
