    One of the best demos of this amp out there. Great job!!

    I've had my Friedman runt 20 head & 2 of the 1x12 cabinets for over a year. The clean Chanel is perfect for Fenderish tones and od Channel is a bit on Marshall side. What a great amp for everything.

      Can you connect both cabinets simultaneously with the runt 20?

      @@TMVowns yes! But I now have a JJ head and a Runt head and play in stereo. The runt sounded great with both cabinets, way better than one. The JJ is the runt on steroids

    I own a runt 20 and clean channel isn't affected by the presence knob or the EQ. Only volume and 3 way bright switch. Love my combo and the xlr direct out into my Focusrite sounds beautiful for recording. Happy I made the purchase. Ty for the video!

    Great demo Tom but I believe there is one correction to be made: amp is not hand-wired but has PCB board which is why it's at that price point for Friedman. So I believe both Runt 20 and 50 are PCB-based. Other models are hand-wired. Here's one article that mentions the custom PCB plus I have seen interviews of Dave Friedman talk about the Runt series as having PCB boards and that's why they are at his entry-level price points (well for a boutique amp I guess).

    • @Fletcher883
      @Fletcher883 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      All of the Friedman amps except the PT20 are built on PCBs. The PCBs for the other amps except the Runt have more off board wiring. You're paying extra for more wire and the extra time it takes to install said wire.

    • @SmokinBuddha
      @SmokinBuddha 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dave Friedman got back to me, said the Runt 20 is a PC board.

      @@SmokinBuddha It is hand wired it's not point to point, that is the difference. An amp can be hand wired and have a PCB . Everyone confuses hand wired with point to point, that's not what hand wired means. Sorry

    • @swmorgan515
      @swmorgan515 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Dave has talked openly about why PCB is better. Less distance between electrical components, more consistency in the builds from amp-to-amp. Even his high$$ Plexi head is PCB.

    • @eyedunno8462

      Most Friedman amps utilize PCB now. They are very robust and reasonably easy to work on. Nothing wrong at all here

    Great demo Love the sound of this amp. Im more of a metal / classic thrash guy can this amp cover that kind of sound fairly saturated slightly scooped?

    • @GeoffSweet
      @GeoffSweet 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not on its own per say... but you can push it... and it comes close.

    • @lanehillard1596
      @lanehillard1596 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I'd say this amp has more than enough balls to do thrash. If you remember, most classic thrash was recorded on amps with much less gain/compression than this. If you hit your settings right, and maybe hit it with a MaxonOD808 or the like, it will saturate really well. This is of course assuming your in a situation to have the volume cranked. Otherwise it won't compress enough.

    • @earworm

      I played on the 50 watt today pushing it with a JHS Bonsai from Charvel San Dimas. Was able to get some great metal tones out of it.

  • @Jimmy87268
    @Jimmy87268 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    The EQ has no effect on the clean channel. You just get the 3 position bright switch, volume and the master presence to dial in your clean tone (and it is so good you won't want to tweak anyways). It is a PCB based amp, but you won't notice that from just listening.

  • @shawnshipatsd8949
    @shawnshipatsd8949 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice demo, I think these come with a switching floor button. This is key for me to buy. I also think it is a 2 channel. I need to do more research. The 20 wat JJ is interesting as well.

      Definitely. I'm not exactly saying that guitar playing is a rich man's hobby but you do hear quite a few people, who have obviously done pretty well for themselves, talking casually about stuffing their garage with £££s worth of gear and you wonder if some realise that's not actually an option for most people. I suppose it's just about keeping perspective.

    Can someone please take some of the post-compression off this recording. It's creating a ducking effect that does a disservice to how tight and percussive this amp sounds. Otherwise great demo.

  • @gazza1252
    @gazza1252 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    “The EQ controls have a lot more power on the drive section”. Erm they have zero power on the clean channel because they are 100 percent disengaged. For clean tone there is a 3-way switch and that’s it. You are still a legato master and I forgive you on that count alone.
