On the topic of Marshall origins, I’ve had an origin 5c for about two weeks now and to be honest I find it a bit too loud for what I expected to be able to do.
In my naivety I expected to be able to crank it in low power mode and get the typical cranked Marshall sound at reasonable volumes. How wrong was I, it’s still far too loud for home use unless I’m home alone. I decided to buy a boss sd1 in the hope of replicating the tone at lower volumes, but it’s way off. The amp only really starts to sound properly good from about 50% up on volume.
Perhaps in hindsight I should have started with a small solid state amp til I figured out what I needed after some thought, but here we are.
Currently considering picking up an orange terror stamp and good headphones for practicing when baby arrives any day now.
