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

[@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.

[@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]

🤣

[@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...

[@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

[@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

[@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!

[@firemanmick]

Friedman & Doug Rappoport - a match made in heaven!

[@cardbored_]

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

[@RalphKramden-q4t]

So damn good! I was most blown away by the Jake E Lee sig and the new DS I'll be drooling about.

[@HimothyOHooligan]

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

[@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.

[@buzzsaw63]

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

[@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.

[@andrewdenine1685]

That Jake e Lee amp sounds amazing

[@spliffsperlunk]

Doug is the ultimate Amp salesman .

[@kuringmundo]

without saying a word

[@cardbored_]

He’s so good

[@TheGnob27]

Exactly

[@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

[@Juicexlx]

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

[@mckorczas7483]

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

[@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?

[@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.

[@davidespinosa1910]

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

[@Matt-db9pf]

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

[@artsal]

Ss v2 sounds huge I’m getting it for sure

[@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.

[@OperationEndGame]

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

[@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

[@christianboddum8783]

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 :)

[@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.

[@axelrodriguez4327]

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

[@kxmrock]

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

[@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.

[@Jbeland1]

Anything Doug touches becomes something I need to have.

[@cardbored_]

Yeah he could sell a Line 6 Spyder

[@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 😔

[@Burkhimself]

Wish I could hear them with an LP. 😢

[@Polentaccio]

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

[@RalphKramden-q4t]

Jeeez the clean channel on the SS is to die for too.

[@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.

[@bluesfuse]

PG just brought 1 microphone with ya to NAMM 😂

[@TheWolvesCurse]

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

[@FirestormAudio]

Really dig the sound of the new SS 100.

[@bigbillex]

We need a BE-20 Deluxe !!!!

[@milesfifer171]

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

[@rocker8692]

I like the bright switch

[@donrutter6765]

The Jake E Lee does it for me.

[@comicblueswithjonygitar36]

This guy makes some nice stuff!

[@coconuthead1]

Thumb up for Doug! Awesome

[@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.

[@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!

[@JayRoc17]

Doug is ALWAYS in the zone!!

[@robertashton8069]

Doug's Killing It!

[@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...

[@guitaristinseattle]

My Small Box is amazing.

[@bradleystroup1457]

Doug 🤘 underrated beast

[@TechMetalRules]

Dave's hair gets darker each year.

[@bishlap]

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

[@mijaatin]

Doug kills as usual.

[@barryschneider7314]

Friedman Rocks!

[@kuringmundo]

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

[@gr328]

Liking the twin sister ;-)

[@WyattWillis88]

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

[@TheSavage1969]

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

[@artsal]

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

[@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

[@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.

[@robertrogers7939]

SS sounds the best.

[@tongusgrump2261]

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

[@jasonlee8497]

Nice playing

[@cyanidejunkie]

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

[@charlesrocks]

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

[@comicblueswithjonygitar36]

Nothing like driven EL34's pure heaven

[@cainm8808]

the guiltiest should be playing ozzy riffs

[@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 .

[@waynelewis4466]

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

[@ensignofindustry1033]

SS 30 watter will do. Thanks

[@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.

[@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

[@iptranslations1987]

I WANT THIS RED AMP !!!

[@guitarlife6190]

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

[@cmath8577]

What is this ? MTV Music News? Handhelds 1995?

[@harleyosterlund5796]

Jake knows tone!

[@coffeewaldo]

Doug!!! 👍🎸👍

[@CrazyHenkie777]

Sounds so delicious!!!

[@jtaa1116]

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

[@tanky666hate]

[@dethstormpx4]

Wow that SS!

[@dnd820]

Would love to hear the Jake job with KT88's

[@musicmore8315]

Jakes amp sounded great to me.

[@chrismortlock2192]

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

[@adamfstewart81]

oh my god you're so close to Dave XD

[@andrewdenine1685]

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

[@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

[@Nick-dp4wk]

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

[@IamtheActionman]

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

[@slugtoenail]

Thank you! Lol

[@spakattack]

Sean you look like Colin Hay from Men at Work.

[@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

[@Braglemaster123]

Dave Friedman is Great 👍

[@Wagoo]

Jake

[@brettdiaz]

I would love to see a 20 watt Jake Jr

[@parkeratwood2717]

Dudes like EVH meets SRV

[@Alanoffer]

That’s where my cats tail went

[@comicblueswithjonygitar36]

My cat, who was sleeping next to me on sofa, got up and left the room, not kidding

[@gktde9874]

Doug is the Ayatollah of Rock'n Rollah.
