Friedman Amplification Jake E. Lee, Steve Stevens & Twin Sister Head Demos | NAMM 2020

[@ShredForth]

Someday.... Marty Friedman is gonna play one of these and then we’ll have The Friedman Friedman.

[@hesch-tag]

Or the Marty Friedman

[@cardbored_]

And then Morgan Freeman can play a Morgan and they can jam and it would be Marty Friedman playing a Friedman with Morgan Freeman playing a Morgan.

[@Nospoon777]

🤣

[@romfordmobbsy]

I mean, I know Doug's a great player but, damn. Playing on demand, do this, do that, make it sound good. Audience of million guitarists ready to judge... Nailed it. Well done my friend.

[@kentonschroer2347]

It’s NAMM and normally nothing sounds good recorded live at NAMM. But crap this sounds stupid good even there. Can’t imagine what it can really do. Dave is putting out some of the best amps period.

[@bishlap]

I've been thinking that or the opposite forever, but could never get it down on paper - Thanks.

[@KelsterVonShredster]

you can't make Friedman amps sound bad even if you tried !!!! FRIEDMAN RULES !!!!!

[@bishlap]

@@KelsterVonShredster Mick Mars could.

[@NickBurbeyGuitar]

They have this really sick "soundproof" room that they put up in their booth. It's insane.

[@RabihSaadguitars]

Yeah ususaly miced recorded amps for these events/review realy is bad sounding..Nothing like if you were standing there..But this sound amazing...so close if your like standing in the room..Also hats down for the sound engineer for tweaking it...

[@MrRyeDaddy]

That Jake amp sounds sooooo good

[@kitoyobeni1]

Oh yeah. Wish I could afford one, maybe a 50W in the future?

[@GuitarsAndSynths]

@@kitoyobeni1 yeah 50 watt with power soak down to 5/10/20 watts?

[@kitoyobeni1]

@Nick 100w is so unusable these days, unless you're a touring musician.

[@MrJam1001]

100-W tube amps are insanely loud but sometimes it's not about the volume it's about headroom. Sometimes a hundred watt amp is a little more punchier than a 50 watt amp at equal volumes

[@dirgeforthymurder]

The Steve Stevens sounds better!

[@barnacio366]

Shout out to Doug Rappoport, top 10 guitar player at the moment!! just follow the guy on social media and you'll see. He is a monster

[@PaulMcCaffreyfmac]

Ok! I've had my fill of AmpliTube Joe Satriani now. Thankfully it's not a second longer

[@bishlap]

LAWD, Thank you!!! I've been THINKING THAT forever!!

[@PaulMcCaffreyfmac]

I've been denied that treat thankfully. Looks very odd

[@glennkemp3680]

I appreciate the chance to hear Doug Rappaport. I think he makes any piece of gear sound top notch. Whew! That guy gets with it.

[@firemanmick]

Friedman & Doug Rappoport - a match made in heaven!

[@AlanScottBand]

The Twin Sister is my Dream Amp! Dave really listens to player feedback and the evolution of his amps show that. The SS100v2 includes changes many SS100 owners want. I still need to hear the lead gain cranked on the SS100v2 lead channel to get a sense the amount of gain on tap for left hand legato lines.

[@artsal]

Ss v2 sounds huge I’m getting it for sure

[@buzzsaw63]

Always helps to have one of the best guitarists in the biz playing your amps!

[@donpritt5160]

Doug Rappoport's a monster on guitar!!!

[@chrisf6216]

10:01 Sounds like a nod to Nuno. Awesome!

[@sbrave]

Yes of course, but why all the blues licks when demo-ing such high gain amps?

[@cardbored_]

Always love seeing Doug do these demos. He’s a great dude and player!

[@spliffsperlunk]

Doug is the ultimate Amp salesman .

[@kuringmundo]

without saying a word

[@cardbored_]

He’s so good

[@TheGnob27]

Exactly

[@HimothyOHooligan]

6:33 I'm just in my room yelling to myself "God DAAAMN!"

[@mhoff7722]

I played some of those amps in that room at 2019 NAMM and even the mini JJ sounded like a roaring beast. They have a wet drive setup going with two 4x12's. Awesome tones there.

[@toms3158]

M Hoff So this was recorded through a 4x12 at least as far as you know? V30s I’d assume but Friedman likes to combo the Creambacks in some of his cabs. Do you happen to know the cab and speakers. I need a twin Shirley but not a 4x12. 😳

[@mhoff7722]

@@toms3158 That Twin Shirley sounds great! The cabs in the background of this video are the matching cabs to the heads they made for Wildwood guitars that year. I'm not sure what speakers. Good chance they are mixed. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppCvZ6mniaZ0rNk

[@andrewdenine1685]

That Jake e Lee amp sounds amazing

[@Matt-db9pf]

Steve stevens..maestrooo geniooo..desde Uruguay ,te admiro...

[@Juicexlx]

That Friedman Jake E. Lee 100W beats the living crap out of the flagship Marshall JVM410H. Damn! OMG!

[@GuitarsAndSynths]

I really hope that Dave comes out with a smaller watt version of the Jake E Lee Friedman amp for us bedroom players who don't need a 100 watt amp. That is my favorite Friedman amp that I would buy today.

[@mckorczas7483]

New or old, everything with friedman name on it sounds great!

[@lucamoqi]

Yeah but let's talk about that mini head on top of the rack.

[@peaveyimpact]

Runt 20 with different cosmetics I assume

[@coffeewaldo]

Luca Moqi I heard they’re coming out with a smaller version smallbox. Could be that idk. Could be wrong or maybe waiting to announce it.

[@sgmarshall3]

I wish someone would give me a little head ;-)

[@nylinx8758]

It's the WW-20 (Wildwood 20) based off of the Pink Taco (PT-20) with all of the tweaks that Dave has made to the amp for Wildwood Guitars. They mention it briefly in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/inbVfKOHft2MopI (4:46 in the video).

[@potterman83]

coffeewaldo man that’ll be awesome

[@Skoora]

Friedman’s had fallen off my radar for a while but that 2 Ch Dirty Shirley sounded really good.

[@kitoyobeni1]

I like all of these, but that Jake amp is right up my alley.

[@davidespinosa1910]

Thanks to Shawn for staying out of the way and letting Dave do the talking !

[@Burkhimself]

Wish I could hear them with an LP. 😢

[@OperationEndGame]

The Plexi tone on the Jake E Lee amp sounds delicious.

[@boddumblues]

I'm glad on Jake's behalf.

[@julianbenedict9720]

I got one of the JEL's last year and it is hands down, the best amp I have ever owned..Been a dream of mine for almost 40 years now...omg :)

[@kxmrock]

We need a 20wt JEL amp Affordable next year. I want That Jake Red amp but can’t afford it . It sounds killer

[@milesfifer171]

You wonder if Doug was dying to break into Bark At The Moon on Jake's amp😯 that would have been great!!

[@Polentaccio]

The high gain channel on Jake's amp doesn't do it for me but the plexi AND 800 channels sound incredible

[@artsal]

I would like to know what kind of speakers in the cabinet? Thanks

[@axelrodriguez4327]

Lol 😂 a plexi with the high end rolled off great 👍

[@nicholastotoro7721]

Amazing how that Jake amp really does sound like a Jake amp, of that makes sense. It has that fuzzy vibe from his Badlands stuff.

[@nikolajnb3774]

I hate how youtube wont find related videos when searching for friedman twin sister. I really want to hear more of this amp and got these suggestions: 1. Tips for raising twin babies - Joan Friedman 2. My identical twin with dwarfism 3. A conversation with Tova Friedman - Holocaust survivor 😔

[@cyanidejunkie]

I want all three, but.... can I have 30 watt versions with 6L6s? Please?

[@Jbeland1]

Anything Doug touches becomes something I need to have.

[@cardbored_]

Yeah he could sell a Line 6 Spyder

[@RashidSivaji]

But what's that mini BE deluxe up top?

[@shaununger8092]

agreed what is that mini one.

[@jaxonbatts9270]

I believe it’s the Friedman jj

[@nylinx8758]

It's the WW-20 (Wildwood 20) based off of the Pink Taco (PT-20) with all of the tweaks that Dave has made to the amp for Wildwood Guitars. They mention it briefly in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/inbVfKOHft2MopI.

[@FirestormAudio]

Really dig the sound of the new SS 100.

[@charlesrocks]

The Jake E Lee Amp is a fuckin Holy Grail of tone.

[@MrAletube]

Mmm,this Jake amp will sell like hot cakes I believe

[@rastadarrin]

It can only sell like 50 hot cakes🤷🏻‍♂️

[@minisurfbanana]

All sold out before NAMM was over

[@nickyounger1368]

I thought the same. Very very exciting.

[@zafira976]

An EL84 35 Watt version, or an EL34 variac lower voltage 30 Watt version of the Jake amp would be perfect! I guess Dave wouldn't make a signature amp that Jake doesn't play and 30 watts are simply not enough for Jake's ears

[@bigbillex]

We need a BE-20 Deluxe !!!!

[@TheWolvesCurse]

Dirty Shirley sounds like a name Sebastian Vettel would give to his racecars. there was Hungry Heidi and Kinky Kylie for example xD

[@JayRoc17]

Doug is ALWAYS in the zone!!

[@rocker8692]

I like the bright switch

[@bluesfuse]

PG just brought 1 microphone with ya to NAMM 😂

[@Brekdiaz]

Great amp builders nowadays but for my taste is hard to compete with Friedman.... it has just the perfect tone(s)... clean, edge of break up, crunch, lead...

[@donrutter6765]

The Jake E Lee does it for me.

[@rogerdat7807]

SS100 has a ballsiest character and tastiest gain for my money. Twin Sister can do the prettiest cleans to the snottiest dirty. JEL was built for Jake-ing.

[@bukcot]

Much better player and demo than the Soldano one.

[@camai75]

The player is Doug Rappaport.. great player..cool youtube channel..does some great demos...Seymour Duncans...etc.

[@bukcot]

@@camai75 I know who he is.

[@coffeewaldo]

Chris Maihofer we know him. For many years.

[@kuringmundo]

doug makes that out of tune guitar sound awesome during the first few tunes

[@hornypayter4694]

hey PG, why dont ya put a fixed mic on your guest?! this always happens when the holds the mic where audio interview is lost! thank you!

[@coconuthead1]

Thumb up for Doug! Awesome

[@jasonlee8497]

Nice playing

[@andrewdenine1685]

Can I please have that case just the way it is with the amps in there

[@bingefeller]

The Jake E Lee amp sounds incredible! BTW, who is this guitarist?

[@jessewinslow1245]

ink Doug Rappaport

[@bingefeller]

@@jessewinslow1245 Thanks! I have heard of him, but never bothered to check out his playing. Guy makes those amps sing.

[@Edje001]

Why a delay/reverb between the axe and the amp? Is it a pedal?

[@MrAletube]

Not in the chain,Dave always does the wdw with a separate pa system,so it's the amp dry and stereo effects for ambience

[@OnfloorAudio]

Is it just me , or does the new Jake E Lee amp sound Bad Ass ?? It just sounds so good in this video compared to the others ... I'm not a fan of the Red color but i know its a sig. amp an all etc etc .

[@ensignofindustry1033]

SS 30 watter will do. Thanks

[@TheSavage1969]

Hands down....Jake amp steals the lineup imho. Gotta love that steroided-800 tone, ain't it?

[@robertrogers7939]

SS sounds the best.

[@cmath8577]

What is this ? MTV Music News? Handhelds 1995?

[@spakattack]

Sean you look like Colin Hay from Men at Work.

[@mijaatin]

Doug kills as usual.

[@IamtheActionman]

Doug on the 6 string Wicked player but tune that g string bro

[@slugtoenail]

Thank you! Lol

[@TechMetalRules]

Dave's hair gets darker each year.

[@bishlap]

That's the head of the cab, not his hair...

[@bradleystroup1457]

Doug 🤘 underrated beast

[@guitaristinseattle]

My Small Box is amazing.

[@robertashton8069]

Doug's Killing It!

[@cainm8808]

the guiltiest should be playing ozzy riffs

[@waynelewis4466]

I love the Freedmen's amp price is ridiculous yes it is a rich man to buy one of those

[@WyattWillis88]

Doug is the sh!t! I'm also drooling over the twin sister!

[@dnd820]

Would love to hear the Jake job with KT88's

[@comicblueswithjonygitar36]

This guy makes some nice stuff!

[@guitarlife6190]

Doug could plug the cable into a turd and it would not sound like shit. That dude is amazing. So is Friedman amps

[@coffeewaldo]

Doug!!! 👍🎸👍

[@alanford3564]

and still no reverb on any amp ???

[@dan_perry]

They would be $1000 more with that option.😉

[@harleyosterlund5796]

Jake knows tone!

[@tongusgrump2261]

“Crossroads” rapps pure evil... only one can be the best!

[@gr328]

Liking the twin sister ;-)

[@barryschneider7314]

Friedman Rocks!

[@comicblueswithjonygitar36]

Nothing like driven EL34's pure heaven

[@adamfstewart81]

oh my god you're so close to Dave XD

[@iptranslations1987]

I WANT THIS RED AMP !!!

[@brettdiaz]

I would love to see a 20 watt Jake Jr

[@tanky666hate]

Doug

[@jasonweinberg932]

Has already been done in a 15 watt version by PRS (MT-15) but I still wouldn’t mind seeing Friedman doing a Tremonti 100 with 6L6’s and not just a Mesa Clone.

[@abcdefghijklmnop7873]

Jason Weinberg no it hasn’t.

[@jasonweinberg932]

Abcdefg Hijklmnop : I meant the MT-15 has been done by PRS.

[@abcdefghijklmnop7873]

Jason Weinberg I understand. I’m the same person btw.

[@musicmore8315]

Jakes amp sounded great to me.

[@jessehoopes7042]

Damn I mean fuckin A that's good

[@chrismortlock2192]

all your interviewers put together can't hold a candle to John Bolinger.

[@Nick-dp4wk]

Could they not get two mics? It’s making uncomfortable how close he is to Dave with that mic.

[@batmandeltaforce]

These hobby amps are passing away.

[@parkeratwood2717]

Dudes like EVH meets SRV

[@danieldeck7946]

👍 Thank you! Great video! Next time maybe with two microphones, then you would also understand everything from Dave and you would not have to wave the microphone around so annoyingly in front of his face!

[@jtaa1116]

Ladies and Gentlemen, on guitar...Paul Rudd!

[@cobracockpedals2497]

Rappoport with Friedman. You cant go wrong...

[@MrAletube]

That's the way,you make a good amp,then make it play to the right people,not the sloppy ones

[@kitchris5902]

God damn... add another plexi to my list of things I don’t necessarily need but will inevitably shell out money for... I’m a god damned addict

[@Braglemaster123]

Dave Friedman is Great 👍

[@dethstormpx4]

Wow that SS!

[@geezberry8889]

so much highs, pretty screechy
