  • We have recently been giving some attention to some of the fantastic amps that we have in stock here at Peach Guitars, so we thought we would start giving an overview to the brands we have and the versatility and amazing tones you can get from them.
    Next up we decided to look at the smaller amplifiers from Friedman. We're sure that you all know about the high quality amps and guitars that we have in stock from Friedman, so here we have pulled out some of our favourites!
    Check them out here:

    That Les Paul Custom is insane. It looks so much like Randy’s. If Gibson didn’t price their VOS or M2M models so much it’d be MINE!

    I gotta say kudos to Dave. He really made these amps quite distinguishing from each other. That all do their own thing quite well without being too close to each other. Especially the taco n Shirley. For 2 Marshall type tones, each fantastic representations of the mark and very different sounding.

    I studied these amps from one end to the other and I'm glad to say I bought the JJ. It is so fitting for the way I play plus the variety of tones you can get from this amp is amazing. He didn't mention it but there are some small hidden bright switches on it that really bring out the highs. It also includes a pedal for the channel switching on the unit.
    Pick the one that suits you best, but for around $1,500.00 you can't go wrong.

    Great comparison. My take away: Runt 20 most versatile jack of all trades master of none; Pink Taco optimized for that classic Marshall plexi sound but maybe better; Dirty Shirley if you want a led zeppelin, or classic lower gain sound; and the JJ for that high gain, metal. Each would do any. Great video and comparrisons.

    I think Friedman has the best 20 watt amps and wish the new Marshall’s were better. I like the overdrive tone of the PT but the clean channel of the Runt. For me I think the JJ sounds over saturated, maybe the tone is different with less gain? Can you get that PT/jcm800ish tone from the Runt?
