Have not been on here for a while since I went full Orange Rockerverb mode. I just picked up a Marshall Origin 50 head from Sweetwater because I really missed that old school Marshall sound that I used to get from my '78 JMP and JCM800 4010.
Wow, this amp really hits the mark in spades, I was not expecting it to so closely match the old school Marshall tone, and with a boost on it and cranked, it is passable for heavy metal IMO, which was kind of a prerequisite for me.
I would highly recommend it for anyone on the fence, as long as you are familiar with the type of gain response you get from a JMP type amp, you will feel right at home. The looks were a big plus for me too, as I've always loved the small box look.
In reviews so many people said it was really bright, I didn't find it to be overly bright at all, the brightness of it just add to the definition and clarity, not icy picky in any way
