This 50w head enables you to express your personality. The Origin50H delivers classic, rich and harmonic tones with a contemporary, sleek style. This all-valve amp has power reducing features making it ideal for different environments from performing on stage to recording in the studio. With a 2-way footswitch available you can turn the gain boost and the FX loop on and off.

Key Features

ADD A LITTLE BOOST
The footswitchable gain boost feature allows you to develop your sound by adding an extra level of gain to deliver crunch to your tone.

YOU HAVE THE POWER
To suit your playing environment, from the bedroom to the studio we have introduced new power reducing technology, PowerstemTM that allows you to have high, medium or low power modes.

TILT YOUR SOUND
With one channel, this amp still offers a variety of tones. By using the tilt control you can vary your sound to access the one you prefer.

Bought it after seeing many positive reviews and videos. On the plus side, it looks nice, not too heavy, lots of power, nice enough clean sound and a foot-switchable effects loop. And it says Marshall on the front. The amp has virtually no gain, even with boost and tilt at maximum. To play the variety of tones required in a lead/rhythm cover band situation, you need a ton of pedals configured on a complex pedal board and practice tap dancing on the side. Didn't suit my needs. I sold it after 3 months. The guy who bought it from me loves it. Opinions are all subjective.

A $3000 Rock Machine Without Breaking the Bank 3 of 4 customers found this review helpful

This amplifier is a great way to get the tones of a Plexi without breaking the bank. This is an absolute rock machine! Even in it’s greatness, there are still some downsides to it. It’s quite loud, even with the power on low, so if you want low volumes out of this, unless you have an attenuator, you’ll have to sacrifice power tube distortion. There’s also not much gain, even if you have the gain knob cranked and boost switch engaged, so if you want to play hard rock or metal with this, you’ll probably want a pedal to boost into high gain. I’d recommend this amp to a guitarist who needs higher stage volume for gigs, someone who needs to cut through an acoustic drum kit, or someone trying to get classic Marshall tones without spending a fortune. I would totally use this amp.

Classic Marshall tone for cheap 4 of 4 customers found this review helpful

I've this head for a couple of weeks and already gigged with it twice. So far it's working great. You have more volume than you'll likely ever need. This amp at max gain with boost on will not give you much drive. With my les paul the most I get is acdc or blues type gain definitely not enough for hard rock or metal. The cleans are better than most Marshalls like silver jubilee for example but if you want that classic Marshall tone and crunch then this amp is great. It's also a great pedal platform. The only negative for me is it has no stand by switch.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
