I am surprised at how clean he was able to get the tone. This is the first video I have seen where someone has shown you can get a clean tone from this amp.

[@jgl2222]

That’s how you demo an amp!! Dammit Tom Quayle that was killer!

[@TalleyWacker1000]

Your coverage of the CLEAN and cleanish tones are EXCEPTIONAL. Thank you so much!

[@adamswanson8216]

I am absolutely astonished at your demo of this amplifier as I am watching it years later obviously I played this app for some time and I had to really figure out how Friedmans’s are voiced and understand the controls completely to get the tones you were getting I originally thought it was only going to be dirt and I had hoped for a plexi Hot Rod amplifier, but it seemed a little too hot and you truly are about the only demo out. There gets any clean tones at all and it’s a disappointment because I think that makes it harder for the amplifiers to be sold more people need to see this video because 9:23 there is a ton of these on the market for nothing for $1000. It’s crazy, you’re a great guitarist. I don’t know but I’m a totally blind guy and I met you at Nam, but you may not remember my friend.

[@justfine77777]

You did that amp justice. I love that slow style of shredding. That rocks! 🤘🏽

[@costas3953]

That was just amazing. What an amp in the hands of a tone monster player. Best demo of this amp I have seen. Now for a Dirty Shirley Mini Combo demo Tom!!!

[@marktucker9279]

I would very much like to hear you play through the Dirty Shirley Mini Combo as well.

[@cbeserra]

Great demo! I want one!

[@romanlegion4282]

I have the head and cab, absolutely amazing.

[@tomjanssen1912]

Tom Q sold me on this amp with his video!!! Ordered one a couple days ago. Can’t wait! I gig mic’d up with in-ears and was sick of lugging a 55 lb combo around. This will cure that problem!

[@G-NutZ]

After 4 years do you still have it? How have you liked it?

[@MoreMeRecording]

Really appreciate the Demo, Tom. Very well done. Full props. Not a deal breaker but the clearly LOUD pops between changes to the gain staging is bit of a drag and I wish there was a standard standby switch. Curious why Dave omitted it as for my MKIV for e.g. Mesa is very adamant that we use it.

[@cmcarley]

Very nice review! You really demonstrated the versatility of the amp. I have a BE100, and I want one of these!

[@rickleblanc8900]

This amp sounds great! For metal tones, how about using a Jackson , Ibanez or ESP/LTD guitar?

[@MyGuitartime]

Amazing!!

[@coolblues14]

great demo ,you may have sold me on the combo instead of the head,

[@thesouthsideshovlerleonard13]

Wow!!! what year and color is that CE? amazing playing... just got a Runt 20 now I want more Friedman.. maybe I should just get a 50 deluxe, do you think that would cover most of the available amp models?

[@nickbelluomini3381]

I actually love the sound of the 10 inch than a 12. I have both head and combo versions.

[@alexmurphy5289]

I have a 10 inch princeton next to a 12 inch blackstar that’s been modded. I go with the 10 inch way more. The bass is much less, and just in general you don’t have to crank the amp to get good sounds. Way quieter too...that 2” of speaker really makes a difference

[@G-NutZ]

Thing is, you can gig just about anywhere with this amp and the 10in speaker does tighten up the low end by default, no need for my boss sd1 I usually use to tighten up the low end, I just use an ep booster to drive it harder and it sounds great using just the volume controls on an hss strat. Really great little amp.

[@adamswanson8216]

I have watched this video more times than I true. Well then I truly care to admit Tom you’re an amazing guitarist. It was your encouragement that got me started with cream tea and so and so forth I am blind and dictating my message so please excuse any errors and spelling, however I am curious to know as I love this amplifier myself and have one. I also bought that based on this video as well. I truly think you’re a great guitarist and I certainly aspire to that greatness I’ve been playing for about 40 years. people say I’m good but I’m certainly no rockstar lol either my question is about the quality of victory products I want to know what your opinion is of the victory sheriff 25 up-to-date to now what you think of the amp build quality and do you think it’s just an overseas PCB board reconstruction boutique put together in the UK or is this a worthy Amplifier? It’s really hard to understand or be sure I have no doubts about Friedman and several of them but I do like some of the tones that are on the sheriff thanks. 1:29 1:35 1:36

[@tomasallegrini2503]

if you want to compare its sound to a jcm800, how would you describe it? love your videos!

[@guitarocd9984]

Damn that's nice

[@baron_orm]

SoundAffects, any chance you can do a "Tom Quayle evening" or something soon? He's an amazing player and I'd love to hear him talk about technique, gear and tone. Does he come to Ormskirk often?

[@SoundAffects]

We did have Tom Quayle in our Aintree store recently. Please sign up to our email newsletter if you haven't already as we will keep you updated with the latest products and events. You can sign up via our website.

[@BertrandLaurenceMusic]

Great tones, thx, and shock&awe playing..Ultra-transparent series FX loop I hear but how /where do you connect the series Fx loop ?

[@bisamkiez]

I really like that clean tone. It is actually pretty rare for a tube amp to have that full bodied cleans, usually they get too sweet and jangly. Would you say that those cleans could keep up headroom wise in a band situation?

[@EdgardCoello]

I'd like to see a review from Tom playing the wampler Bravado, betwenn this Friedman and the wampler it's very difficult to choose, I'd like to hear Tom's opinion

[@eviltwin47]

Nice

[@alexmurphy5289]

If I could space jam one persons guitar skills it would be Tom because he’s so versatile lmao

[@Baroque-Handel]

Would the be-od pedal be overkill on this amp?

[@tongusgrump2261]

I don’t normally play prs’s :)

[@pepebvelez]

Killer demo, but what is the difference between the PT mini combo and the PT20 mini head and cabined?

[@howabouthetruth2157]

I think the combo is a single 10" speaker with OPEN back cabinet........vs the mini head with CLOSED back cabinet. This is the classic difference between combo's vs head + cabinet. Most great studio albums were indeed recorded with combo's.

[@bmann792]

This guy isn’t bad

[@udr3005]

So great amp and tone. But HOW can someone play such an amp with SUCH a guitar!?

[@baron_orm]

Just one second in and that opening note made me think "I want one!"...

[@SoundAffects]

Feel free to pop in and try out our Friedman range. We are loving them!

[@TheRuiner781]

I thought you wearing a towel 😆

[@aliengrey6052]

Lol

[@curiousuranus810]

Mine used to sound like that before it started squealing and squawking and no one seems to be able to fix it.

[@emdblues]

Have you fixed it?

[@caloricphlogistonandthelum4008]

@@emdblues Sent it back to Friedman, who changed the chassis (because they couldn't work out what was wrong), got it back and sold it. Now I have a Marshall 1974X and I'm so happy.

[@Ragnar-Viking]

Showoff....great job

[@nj1255]

Goddamn what a intro!! That playing was as smooth as a freshly shaved ballsack!

[@scrimmerman]

Why did I watch this? I mean really. Damn.

[@tomlarosa6647]

Excuse me, as I google this.this could be expensive

[@quibster]

Don't worry if it smells fishy out of the box.

[@quibster]

If you don't like the sound you can always plug into the Brown Eye first before hitting the front end of the Pink Taco.

[@nickyounger1368]

That......was funny

[@Baroque-Handel]

Does the Pink Taco sit above the BE in the lineup? Or reverse depending on position?

[@jayceburns8246]

I don't know about the 10" speaker. I think that pink taco would prefer a 12".

[@jayceburns8246]

But then again it is a tight sound, positively dripping with tone.

[@tjnugent62]

$1799 for the combo... Wow.. super nice but pricey.

[@bhosterman]

Now if they could only find someone who knows how to play the guitar to demo it...

[@Stump51]

Really.most cids will show a guy playing scales.totally unacceptable .I need a d g a chord with rock tones.totally out of touch. Need some classic rock tones buddy.need some led mountain Play some of that mississippi queen.
