New Friedman Brit 50

[MirrorProfiles]

Didn’t see this, looks to be some kind of Sweetwater custom thing?

Seems sensible for those that get the heebie jeebies from the thought of Dave Friedmans Hairy Brown Eye

Looks awesome, vintage Marshall style channel plus a Friedman BE channel?

Video from the Sweetwater website.

Presence knob in the back?
Shared EQ using a traditional tone stack?

If they had made the front panel just full wide, they would easily fit a Presence knob in there.

yeah, the idea of owning a 'hairy brown eye' is beyond beavis and butthead, honestly regardless if its good.

If I were in the market, this would be right up my alley for sure.

Right up your… No, wait, hang on - let’s not get too inspired by Friedman.

Meh. 1987X sounds better.

Watch where you're pointing that finger at lol

Does it have the tiny smd plastic pots like the other new friedman plexi?

The Friedman bloat was instantaneous to my ears. That Friedman bloat has an immediacy to it that I heard right from the jump.

It seems like a cool amp, but I honestly prefer the Runt 50, which is $1k less, so idk...

SW needs a better high gain amp demonstrator though. This video is probably not the best representation of what this amp can do. Don Carr seems to be out of his element and Nick Bowcott.... well.....I'm sure he's a great guy, but...
