OH SHIT! WILL IT CHUG?
Ola! Congrats on 666k subs!haha
It sounds pretty good. I get that, bluesy southern rock vibe.
If you had the footswitch connected pulling the knob to hit the gain boost channel won't do anything. You need to use the foot switch then.
Ola the Sewede should review PEAVEY 6505MH!
Soak in water
Amp: Made in Vietnam
Guitar colour: Army Green
If only he played Fortunate Son
Or Disposable Heroes.
NAPALM IN THE MOOOORNING
Or Rooster
Anything from Sodom
@@jerroneous8549came looking for this comment!
It may not chug but it can still produce a kickass old school heavy metal tone.
That’s the best tone, I think. Old school heavy metal transmits much more to the listener than today’s metal. Too much gain can have much less punch.
That’s why many people think ac dc or Led Zeppelin were full on gain, coz the right amount of gain sounds heavier and transmits that aggressiveness to the listener better than a high high gain amplifier.
I’m young but modern metal is just not as good as old school stuff.
@@donjohnson7550 I'm more of an old school fan myself, especially late 70s/80s metal. There's great modern stuff I love too but the default moder metal tone has gotten boring for me at the moment.
@@donjohnson7550 modern metal isn't even using amps. It's all neural DSP lol
Damn right!
Must be awesome boosted with a fuzz
With the OD it sounds a bit like classic Megadeth. It really has that Plexi sound
Agreed
I was thinking the same. Really a Plexi, you know, early AC/DC feel.
I don't think it saturated enough even with the pedal Ola used. Perhaps it needs something more ballsy and gainy.
@@Cthulhu_Awaken had one for a short while before getting annoyed by how finicky it was with input gain. too much and it just farts out the preamp. a decent amount of boost with some on pedal distortion from something like a fulltone OCD did the trick. I still put TS style OD in front just to cut the low end and tighten it up though. too much work to get it to sound good. decided to stick with the DSL20 head.
I was getting early Slayer vibes from it. Put an EQ through it and it'd sound like Reign In Blood
Exactly🤘
I have a sneaking suspicion this amp would sound AMAZING with some fuzz.
It does. A RAT pedal also makes it sound really great.
@@samwellfrm I pull the master and pre amp to the max, engage the gain boost then plug a rat in (dist 1 o'clock, tone 11 o'clock, volume full), and whaddya know, Obituary and Morbid Angel right then and there.
I loved mine with my EQD Black Ash (Tone Bender-style fuzz) in front. Also works killer with a treble booster like the Naga Viper for everything from Page to Iommi-like tones. It sings, it dances, but most importantly, it dooms.
it also sounds good with an acapulco gold
@@ilikepotatoes1345 That's what i thought instantly - with Trey's RAT setting that would be perfect Morbid Angel sound!
If you run this amp with the treble at 0, dime the presence, and keep the tilt at 50% it's so good. Adjust the bass and mid to taste and add a DS-1 or a Rat and it's so sick
I chugged my coffee this morning. It was brutal.
“My neighbors gonna kill me for that one, but okie”
-Ola 2021
This thing with a big muff sends you to alt rock/grunge heaven.
Or to the 60s and 70s and early 80s.
I mean, it's supposed to be a plexi style amp.
J. Mascis sound on a budget.
@@martinhroch344 Basically.
@@martinhroch344 J. Mascis on any budget is good.
@@marvintimke3978 I thought the tone was more akin to a JTM45?
Before watching, I predict Ola needing some major boost to get the Origin to chug with his medium output pickups 🤘🏼
This type of amps are really missunderstood by modern players. First it has 2 gain knobs, one is called gain and the other master. Also where it shines is in mix with big bass player and thundering drums. Then you find out, it has well enough gain for hard rock/heavy metal.
@@stanislavmigra the way to do this amp is to dime the master. Then add gain to taste. It probably dosnnt quite have the gain in the head alone to do metal. A boost is definitely required
I have am origin 50 and I just use it as a pedal platform
@@b-roniousk9181 and I see nothing wrong with that.
@@b-roniousk9181 same and I play southern metal, weedeater ehg, etc. I get routinely told I have some of the best tone people have heard. I use a prs ce, a blues driver, and for fuzz I use hail satan deluxe. Through v30s and g12t 75s.
I dig this. I've always enjoyed the versatility of old Marshalls, especially when they're being bludgeoned with a boost into metal territory. Brutal sounding.
I really like it! as a bluesy hard rock guitarist I feel that the origin has some sweet sounds naturally, with the OD pedal it sounded great to my ears I have been watching this amp through guitar center and other TH-camrs demoing it. Ola you hit the nail on the head thank you so much for giving us a metal demoing of the origin I'm definitely picking one up! For me personally I feel like a great amp is so much more extension of our musical souls and as someone who has never owned a great amp I feel the origin has what I'm looking for thank you again sir much obliged!
Perfect for early 80's metal and thrash.
I’ve got this as a combo and it’s fantastic especially as a clean pedal platform. It takes all kinds of drive pedals perfectly.
This amp apparently is a great mod platform. Monomyth and Headfirst amps have been turning these into high gain beasts
Makes sense, isn't the Nameless stuff some type of modded Plexi? I love the clarity those modded plexis give to the metal chuggggs
That's right, my tone brother!
@@ThroughGrace88 Monomyth isn't doing them right now but he said he will start back after building his run of ground up amps. Headfirst has a guide where you can do it yourself.
Well yeah that's basically a plexi the most modifies amp ever
Great series, Ola! I'm happy you tested this amp because I'm very interested in taking it for a test drive myself.
It won't chug on its own but back when I had this amp I could throw any dirt pedal in front of it and get great high gain tones
Sweet little amp
"Always on the Run" @ 4:06. Classic riff
I think it'd be interesting to see how you tackle the Marshall Studio Vintage, basically a smaller scale 20-watt Plexi.
The Marshall “Plexi” amps used by classic rock bands like AC/DC have a normal channel and a high-treble channel; you switched channels by plugging your guitar into a different jack on the amp. Some people who use that type of amp “jumper” the two channels to get a blend between the normal and high-treble channels. The Tilt knob simulates this blending of the two channels on a Plexi.
Hey Ola thanks for showing me Cryptopsy in your fav 90s albums video!! I’m still listening to none so vile, it’s so awesome, somehow I missed out on them.
My friend played the 50w Origin head to head against the Randall Diavlo 45w, each with just a tube screamer attached. The Origin sounded way heavier at full volume.
Bro-la! You’ve been killing it with those solar colors. That green and that gold are so far my favorite.
Hands down the best Solar I’ve seen yet
Man, Ola layin' down those funky riffs!
That brief "Always On The Run" cover was surprisingly exquisite
Not what I expected for a marshall. it didn't chug but that clean tone was one of the best I ever heard. I would get this and just use a distortion pedal
4:17 "Ooh ooh oohhh ohhh oohh oohhhh" is the best part.
What song is that?
People really didn’t understand what this amp was when it came out, which explains why it got panned so much.
nah they understood, but the amp sounds like ass
Dude, matted army green guitar with single pickup and black hardware, I love it
I love the Origin series they sound so good in person.
I’ve got the 50 and I’m pretty happy with it, good pedal platform does the vintage Plexi thing really well, has a FX loop and is all tubes… not to mention can get loud a frig…. It’s good for the money….
Love the old school 80s metal tone.
That amp and guitar combo sounds crisp and clear .
If you looking for a vintage rock tone or play Blues then this amp is perfect. Hard rock and metal then DSL like Ola mentioned.
I think this sounds great for Hard Rock and old school metal
We need more of these man
So entertaining
I love these
My friend bought the DSL20 this weekend, but we tested the ORI20 also and the Clean Sound of the ORI20 is so amazing. If you love Stoner Rock (Kyuss, QoTSA, Sloburn, Color Haze, etc.), the ORI has a lovely clean sound. Maybe you need a pedal for distortion.
That OD green color is sick Ola!!! 🤘
That amp sounds like it would be great for some AC/DC.
Because it would be, they used Marshall’s lmfao
@@FrankRizzo333 marshall isn't marshall
@Timothy Foster It is. First amp I’ve ever had I could get “Up To My Neck In You” sounds without a law enforcement visit level of volume.
Indeed - the amp for perfect AC/DC tone , I prefer "FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK" instead of "Hipster Doom Chug nonsense " too .
@@FrankRizzo333 well, their Marshalls are actually vintage. I know Angus and Malcolm didn't use stomp boxes, and I'm certain I've heard Angus do things that sound like a chug....
Been binging your vids my friend and really enjoying the content. I especially love this series. Pretty much what i do when i try out a new amp myself. Always gotta look for that DRIVE and GAIN! LMAO, Keep up the good work.
I have the origin 20 combo and hooked it to my 1960B Marshall 4x12 and it sounds really good with my revv g3. It also has sweet tones with my deadhorse deluxe overdrive with my keeley compressor in front of the overdrive. Its a cool little amp for pedal platform stuff.
Just ordered it, and Revv G3. We're on a similar page. 😁
Damn Ola, love the riffs!
Ola, that's a nice finish. Reminds me of juniper green on the rg570 years ago, but they didn't quite pull it off. This one is the right mix. Nice!
I am quite surprised by how much I love the color on that guitar.
Awesome demo, ola. 😎🤘🏻🎸I would say the Marshall origins chugs in a retro kind of way. It’s suitable for hard rock and classic heavy metal.
I used one of these on a gig set clean and using a Helix as a preamp (Revv Purple) in front of it and it killed. I still want to get one for a backup to use like this. The loop was great with the effects.
666k subs Ola!!
NUMBER OF THE BEAST!!!!
Congrats!!
Dude that guitar is sick!!
Wow never thought I'd hear Ola playing a Slash part from a Lenny Kravitz song! "Always On the Run", nice Ola 😎
Ola that riff at 2:13 is so sick I had to pause the video and go burn it into my memory so I never forget it. I want to write a whole song based on that
Thanks for another informative and entertaining review!
4:06 oh yeah! Always on the run! 😂 I❤️SLASH & MARSHALL
I picked this up awhile back for a pedal platform. Run an 808 kit i built from stewmac, as a clean boost, into a Revv G3. Then into a MXR smartgate. It will Chugg and sounds pretty good. The amp is crazy loud. All in all it's a great all tube pedal platform for the price.
The guitar looks awesome !
I have the 50, but you showed me some stuff I hadn't considered. You have it sounding really nice.
Shieet 666k subs! Congrats Ola! Love your content.
Sounds great bro 🤘🏼
That Amp Sounds Fantastic..
Whaddafaq, that guitar looks sick Ola.
Finally!!! Some single humbucker guitars! I might have to get one of those army Green singles! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
That one gallop riff towards the end was nasty Ola
I have the 50w version and run a marshall ED-1, tube screamer, swollen pickle, and mxr micro amp infront of it and ooooh boy does this amp rip. Definitely a pedal powerhouse
I would have liked to have seen what it sounded like with a HM-2.
Yep or an ML-2 or MT-2
@@sid35gb It has an FX loop, so yes, a Metal Zone does sound good through it, and an HM2 sounds good through any amp that can get a little breakup going, so that's also a yes.
@@ilikepotatoes1345 I’m old school I run the MT-2 straight in the front and save the fx loop for modulation. Back in the day before the internet no one was running them through the loop that’s even if your amp had a loop my old JCM800 didn’t have one so everything would go in the front. And the guys on the pedal show prefer to still run everything in the front.
Have fun now and don’t buy the internet hype a lot of it is bollocks 😎
@@sid35gb I'm not buying into bollocks, I own a Metal Zone and several amps, solid state, valve and hybrid, no matter the technology it just sounds better through an FX loop return, the only time I thought it sounded alright in the front was through my old Randall RG80 head, in any other case it's bees, just too broken up, sizzly, emaciated sounding no matter the settings, just not that great. The FX loop thing really works wonders, unless you're using the Metal Zone as a boost or an EQ shaping thing or if you just so happen to have an amp that really jives with that pedal, don't put it in the front. If you haven't yet tried it in the FX loop return, give it a shot, works like magic, the sizzle goes away, tightens the loose bottom end, makes it more "focused".
@@sid35gb exactly, I run my whole analog board, (Boss bass chorus, Metal zone, and my wah through the front of my roc pro half stack and it just crushes! I get compliments on my tone all the time! Just takes some tweaking!
I have one and I can play literally anything with my pedalboard on it. Great cleans and overdriven tones.
The colors that solar guitar comes up with are so lit
Whew - super glad I got the DSL instead of the Origin. Thanks for the verification, Ola! 🍻🤘🏻
Been waiting for this tbh
666 k subscribers! Hell Yeah! 😈 Congratulations!
Ola always on d run.
"hu hu hu-HU HU HU!" That was cool, riff was swell too. Im gonna steal it.
Lotsa metal guitarists early on....70s n early 80s used heads like these for power and just ran pedal trains into em....randy Rhodes sound too me can be attained with a few boss pedals and this head etc..I know you already know all that ola...and more then I ever will ...guess I just wanted too say you did a great job making a lower gain amp sound mean as it can without a real hi gain preamp pushing the front end..
....once again you've nailed it.ola..i hope these companies realize how fortunate they are to have your time and attention..peace ✌️
I recently bought one after testing it and DSL side by side. Slap a TS-9 or OD-2 in front of it and the tone is amazing. Makes the DSL sound like Valvestate. You're gonna need a dummy load to reach The Tone in bedroom volumes though, this thing needs to be cranked
I really wanted to love this amp, but in the end I sold both of mine due to having to turn the volume up WAY high in order to have a good metal gain. I needed it to go there at much lower volumes. Ola's right... on its own = no chug. But with the addition of an overdrive pedal up front, yes, you can get it there. Sold both of my Origins and ended up going back to my old DSL100, but bought a DSL 20 for lower volume duties. I like the DSL20, but it doesn't have the bottom end tone of the DSL100 (of course).
There's a reason why you didn't like it. It's the sound of a late 60s marshall not a modern high gain tone.
The finish on that guitar is cool!
Its an Origin 20, its so generalized, I think they basically made it that way(like alot of the original era Marshall) as on its own it can do the normal vintage stuff especially pair it with cream backs outside of that it needs help.
The thing I noticed about this amp is it needs Pedals if you want anything modern damn does it take pedals well though.
Fucking great tone even it's not metal. Listen to that classic rockness!!!
I’ve been loving my Origin 20 Combo. Absolutely perfect AC/DC Powerage tones on it’s own, it loves a variety of pedals.
I've got the Origin 50 head and I boost it with the Euphoria side of a Wampler Dual Fusion into a Fender Engager Boost and it does chug but what it really does well is a mix of AC/DC to early Van Halen and cleans up with your volume knob perfectly, which is what I was going for. I use a Revv G3 straight into the power section via my Boss ES8 switcher for any super heavy chugging and yes, it's a phenomenal pedal platform.
THIS is the comment i was looking for lol. I run a Dual Fusion into a plexi drive and was looking to get some more modern tones with this amp - strictly using pedals for gain. Im sold.
yeahhh i love this. this sounds like something that would have been used on ride the lightning and that makes me happy
I need that single hum A.2 6 brother. Had no idea you offered single hum models. So sick.
More guitars with single pick up, yum yum
It sounds good!
I have the origin 50 with the same cabinet setup and a TS9. I use a Les Paul through it and it spews thick crust and black metal.
got the 50 also and going to try it with the hm-2w
Jesus!
That Solar...So badass!
I loved this new guitar!
I have one, and with a small amount of boost and a boss ge7 in the loop with a scoop makes a great chug
oh shit i've been waiting for this, been thinking of getting an origin for a while, this will help me decide
Don't know if it chugs but it does sound f*** good. And come to think of it that Marshal DSL demo you did a couple of years ago sounded REALLY good in fact i still remember it vividly.
Thank you ola!
I have the Origin 50 and, with a tube screamer, gives me the punk sound that I’m looking for.
My favorite pedal, the Precision Horizons Drive Device!
With the OD it had a great tone for early thrash (back when the modded Marshall was king).
0:47 THANK YOU !
damn we need more colors with this pickup configuration Ola ! a solar with one bridge pickup ! thats the sh*t !!!
That app is really good for anybody that likes to play classic rock like Led Zeppelin or anything that has a clean with a slight break up type of a tone. I love playing that amplifier when I go to guitar center.
Love the army green Solar!
Never expected to Ola to play Slash. OMG!
The 😤 at the beginning 👌😆
Gibson SG -> Tube screamer set to mild vol boost -> mid gain -> max master volume = aussie rock heaven!
I have one of these and it's a really great amp, beautiful cleans but it takes distortion like a champ. I usually play it with the master volume cranked, low gain and a RAT or DS1 in front and boost the mids.
was that 'around 2018' added during editing? excellent!
