Tube warmth
If you want a good solid tube amp at with a vintage look, feel and sound, the Origin is it. Even with the output at low and volume at 1 you get a true tube amp feel without any signal loss.
I'd happily play this live at any occasion be it a club gig or in a studio and if you want to turn it up and feel it growl, it will have no problem keeping up with whatever you want to do. Also takes pedals fantastically well and has a very functional FX loop in the back.

It is what it is and that's good!
Want some good ol' Jimi, Jimmy, and Stevie tones? You'll get them! It's vintage, warm and really good. Great with pedals as well. However, it's also really loud. You can absolutely play at home as well, but you'll only get some saturation and mild distortion at bedroom levels. Just go crank it somewhere and it's magical! Perfect for blues, old school rock, heavy rock etc.

Modern version of a plexi
This is my third tube amp and i must say it pairs beautifull with my Vox AC10. Solid mid range power from the marshall with a nice tilt knob which lets you chose between the bright or normale channel of a plexi or blend between the two.
I'm a pedal guy and this amp takes pedals very good!
The DI out is something I haven't been able to figure out to sound good on my focusrite but i prefere to mic them anyway!

Perfect Budget Marshall
I ordered this amp initially because I love the looks. Might sound shallow on my side but I need to be attracted visually to my gear to use it.
At first I was underwhelmed by the volume. I loved the sound but was disappointed because really needed to crank it in order to play with a full band but a few days later when playing at home I realized I have found the perfect amp both for home and gigs/rehearsals. Knock it down to low power mode and master on 3 and you can play this in an apartment - put it in high power and go to 8-9-10 on the master and you got yourself a gigging amp.
The speaker is also good but it needs a few hours to burn in. In really makes a difference. It really doesn't matter that it's only a 10 inch.
I love that the amp is light. I have back problems and this is a blessing.
Feature set is perfect for me. Too much controls on an amp and I have option-paralysis. This is the right amount.
Loves pedals, but I didn't try too many on it. I'm a simple guy, I like overdrive, chorus, trem and delay.
All in all I love this amp. For once I am fully happy with a piece of gear :)
Cheers!

It's good as price
It's really good amp for this price, it has old school sound.
It could be better if it had internal reverb.

Very versatile amp.
Love this amp. Home, studio or stage all in one.
Works well with pedals in the front, in the FX loop or with 4 cable setup. Have tested it with external cabinet with 12" greenbacks, and will probably buy both a 10" greenback and 10" creamback to test in the amp. Not because I hate the speaker that's already in there, but because this amp is so great that I will have fun experimenting with it for a long time coming.

A simple and yet very good Marshall
I use this amp at home and in rehearsal and it is loud enough to gig with it. It is quite close to the classic Marshall sound that a plexi would get you.
The built-in attenuator makes it very versatile and allow to take advantage of the tubes at bedroom volume which is great.
Besides the eq, a tilt control, Fx loop (it takes pedals very well) and gain boost are available and that's pretty much it.
In summary, the 20c provides an old school Marshall sound that can be adjusted for a variety of environments.

My go to amp
Since I have it I don't even touch my Orange Rocker 15, although it is also a great amp.
I record silently with the Marshall exclusively. It is loud but not too loud to piss off the neighbours.
The boost function is very use with some of my guitars, which were lacking tone and character, now I just press the button and even those guitars bite.

Perfect Clean Pedal Platform
A very crisp, full, and organic sounding amp. Marshall have done it again!
