I am quite surprised that the 10inches speaker gives more cream and bass than the 12. Is it the cabinet effect or tubes vs solid state circuitry ? Anyway Origin for vintage, DSL for modern tones . I play vintage. Johan , how do you compare Origin 20 with 2525 Jubilee ? I used to have the 2525 but sold it , back to my Vox AC15HW1.

Thanks for making this great comparison I beleive many were waiting for, Johan! Not to mention the intro which was a piece of art by itself. With a few exceptions I preferred the dsl with the humbuckers and the origin with SCs, especially overdriven. Both were great.

Thanks, Johan! I bought an Origin 20C a couple months ago and your video makes me feel even better about the decision.

I like the more vintage sound of the origin. Plus it looks way better that the DSL, which is an added bonus.

I have both and I run them in stereo with a chorus pedal and it sounds so good

You and Simon have such wonderfully complementary playing styles! Simon is the type of Fender player I'd love to be, but never will and your Gibson style is awesome as well. Great pair of amps...and I need to stop watching videos on Origin 20s or I'm going to end up buying one (when I promised myself I wasn't going to shop for any gear for a while).

I have the Origin 20, its a superb Marshall plexi sound and the 10 inch speaker does the job incredibly well.

You guys do far the best comparisons for the DSL vs Origin series. You get a very accurate idea of the differences between the two. The DSL seems to have a more balanced, Fender sound here with the Origin nailing the vintage Marshall tone. Love the sound of the Origin.

I own a dsl40c and I am surprised how much more I like the Origin. And great playing from both of you!

I am shocked at how magical the Tele sounds through the Origin at the end of the demo ! I would run them both in parallel. Super comparison Johan !!! 👍

I have 2 other Marshalls and the Origin 20H is the one i've been using ever since, pur and just enough power.

Both sounded good in their own right, but I far preferred the Origin if I had to pick just one. The difference to me was even more pronounced with Simon and the single coils. The Origin sounded so sweet and creamy compared to the brightness of the DSL. The DSL would probably cut more in a mix, but I go for the Origin. You keep tempting us with that Amos V. And I thought I'd talked myself OUT of another V....Rock on brothers!

I avoided buying a DSL when I was looking for an amp. It just wasn't that vintage Marshall tone I was looking for. Now the Origin line is right up my alley.

Awesome video! I’ll have to watch it again, had a little bit of trouble telling which one you were using!

Johan, not sure how this amp slipped passed me but tonight I played the Origin 20 combo amp tonight at Guitar Center, then I tested out the Vox AC15C1 and Fender Deluxe RI. I was completely blown away at the tone palette coming out the Marshall Origin 20. I thought I was gonna buy the VOX AC15 but now I am not sure sure. There is something magical about Fender Guitars through a Marshall amp that is next level greatness. I used my tele this evening and it was magic and also love the fact that it was simple, no effects other than some gain (perfect for a pedal board) Another bonus feature was the 3 toggle High/Medium/Low output switch, gong from 20w-3W-0.5W. Just WOW, Marshall has really stepped up their game with this series

It would be great if you compare both tops with the same speaker cabinet!

I love these comparison videos but I have found it useful to listen without watching first to avoid any bias.

Awesome comparison and video, as always thanks Johan

I think the Origin sounds better with the Tele's single coils and the DSL sounds better with the V's humbuckers. However if I had to choose one amp to use with both guitars I would go with the Origin overall.

As I dsl owner I think your right but if I was gonna make a rapid change I'd have to go with the sv20h u can get the sound of the 70s and even into the 80s until the jcm 800 took hold no amp sounds like it !! I can get the jcm 800 tone on the dsl anyways, thin it out and lower the gain and crank the volume to the sweet spot then turn the treble up on a good quality clean boost 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻

I really like both of them. Both bring great sounds from the past, and I think both offer great sounds for the future as well. You always find some of the greatest toys Johan!!! Great V and Epi Tele too!!

For gigging the origin would probably be better. But the DSL on its own would probably be more fun. It's Monday again already. Have a good one

Both sound amazing. This was great to see as I have been wanting to try an Origin. I have a DSL40, and love it but I have been wondering how close these 2 sound. Sweet playing Johan!

honestly the DSL sounded real good. A lot more clarity. Some might find it too trebly, but you can roll that off. I never liked the fizz on the DSL i had Rented. Ultra gain was toooooo much. Sounded good here. Origin was good, but sounded a little like a blanket was over the speaker. Vin30 would make it sound great I imagine.

There was a period in the 1980s when Epiphone had a thing with Gibson explorer type headstocks. Kramer, Jackson, and Charvell guitars were all the rage. They all had pointy, 6 inline headstocks (then came the pointy reverse headstock craze for a few years). I think Epiphone borrowed the Pointiest Gibson headstock style to stay relevant . Epiphone made some strange guitar models during that time. A friend of mine had an HSS strat style epiphone with that explorer type headstock. They made Telecaster type guitars as well.

@@oscarmejia8495 Yes it is. The 20 is cathode bias. The 50 has a trim pot. People seem to be opening these amps up and seeing mosfets and IC chips and crying foul but this amp has power scaling, DI (which is honestly pretty rubbish) and speaker emulation. The only criticism is the input headroom is pretty big, so if 'plexi' tone is your goal, you will need to punish it with a pedal or two to really gun it. Personally, I have found that the amp distortion is wonderful (in full power mode + boost engaged) but you will be need to dime the master volume and that means pushing serious DB's. Its crazy (painful + tinnitus inducing) through a half stack without a boost or overdrive pedal to do the heavy lifting. Actually louder (in terms of sheer BAMF) than my AC30.

I liked the Tele with DSLand origin with flying V

I love the hair on the Origin - it may only do one tone, but that's the exact tone I want, whereas the DSL does many tones I don't care for! I'm amazed by how good you make the Origin 20 sound though, I couldn't get it anywhere near as big sounding - I ultimately went with the Origin 50 combo to avoid the 20's boxiness, and I couldn't be happier. :-)

I got the Origin 50H a year now. Using also a booster in fronf, you can get also nice distorsion at low volumes. I got also a DSL1HR in the living room for practice. Origin for high volumes, DSL for low volumes...

I think it depends a lot on what you want out of the amp and what kind of player you are. If you want that vintage sound, and don't need tons of gain from the amp, the Origin might be your best option. I noticed you were on the clean channel on the DSL for almost the whole shoot, only switching over to the distortion channel (red light) for a moment. That was the moment when I said, "That's what I'm talking about!" I have a DSL 40c, and I tend to use it either full-clean or with a lot of gain, using a pedal to push the clean if I want some crunch from it.

Love both amps.....I own the new Marshall DSL100 Watt head, sounds pretty amazing , although the eq section was better in the old DSL...but cranked up thru a 4x12, it's a beast!...

Very nice comparison, It would have been interesting to see the equalization on each amp

Cool amps and all... That scenery! Beautiful.

The origin sounds really really good. It is almost like a new take on the class 5

Damn Sweden is beautiful. I went to Bornholm once... the forests were magical. Great set-up for an amp demo man!

In this format the Origin really nails the classic JTM 45 type fat tones BUT you never took advantage of the DSL20's fat tones available on the Ultra Gain channel with the gain dialed in at around 3 to 4 on the gain knob and backed off to about 7 or 8 on the guitar volume. The DSL20 is one of Marshall's most versatile little guys once you know how to take advantage of the abundant array of sonic potentials it's capable of easily delivering.

That V through the Origin made a beautiful sounding instrument. I would have loved to hear that Yamaha Revstar through the Origin too.

I love Johns one foot in front of the other pentatonic shred stance!

Great comparison, but I wish you showed the settings of each amp.

Man I want one of those Amos V’s! Nice Epi Tele!

I favoured the Origin overall, but for certain riffs/examples I preferred the DSL. I think Johan summed it up quite nicely at the beginning, they are good at different things.

Wow both sounded great. Hats off to Johan and Simon for the playing. The first 3 and half minutes or so the Origin crushed it, and the last half the DSL sounded ace.

Great vids Johan, you gotta get your hands on some Friedman stuff! I'd suggest the Smallbox 50 and Dirty Shirley given your musical taste. Cheers!

I think the dsl has the real vintage Marshall tones. The origin is more like a low watt Fender tweed sound. The dsl is in the Hendrix color spectrum.

Sound is a personal thing and my liking goes to the DSL and the Flying V

I've heard the speaker in the DSL combos is the weak point but I played the DSL 100 head through a 1960 cab and also found it very shrill and glassy like in this comparison. On the other hand the Origin sounds fantastic. They seem to be getting mixed reviews but I'm definitely going to try one out. So warm and round 🤤

I think the Origin sounds cracking for the price but the DSL is hitting the correct mids for cutting it in a live mix. I would be happy adding either one to my collection .

Dear Johan, patron saint of Marshall, I love your work! Have you ever demo’d the Class 5? I don’t rate the speaker / cab in the combo version, but the amp sounds great when run on 11 through a bigger speaker. I think it’s not popular because people bought it expecting it to be a great home practice amp, but it only comes to life when it’s raging! Also, the first version was poorly made. I’ve used it at rehearsals through a 4x12 with a loud drummer, and it sounded killer! I’m thinking about using it in a studio session in January. I’d love to hear your take on it!

Definitely the Origin 20, plus it's got such a cool vintage look!

To me, the Tele through the DSL 20 has a bit of a Lo-Fi transistor radio vibe sound to it at time, but putting that aside, I love the opening shot Johan. It made me forget that I am about to watch a hear review video. As an Australian, it's really hard to find spots like that here, if at all. Where did you go to shot the opener to this video? Maybe also you could go though the gear that you use to shot your video's. Keep up your good work sir, from Adelaide, Australia.

Hi Johann love your channel, have you done a kt88 vs 6L6 vs EL34 comparison ?

I only briefly saw the Origin settings, but I found what I think is the best for these amps. Master 10 - Boost on - Gain 2 to 4 TMB according to your ear and guitar. Control volume and break up with your guitar volume. I didn’t care for the preamp distortion, but this is a different amp with the MV cranked!

Is it me or does the Origin sound more like a n Orange? Its got that thick fuzzy goodness as where the DSL is more clearer but thinner sounding.

I love my Origin 20 head so bloody much.
