[@adamfstewart81]

I love David Friedman sooooo much. LIttle known secret about being a Friedman customer: Dave responds to your customer service emails personally. Best brand in the business.

[@RByrne]

Thats awesome, especially for the size of the company. Another one who does that is Godin.

[@fastandfunky]

This is true, and I have sent him several Emails he always responds, I bought a Deluxe 50 BE and the switch was bad right out of the box, I sent Dave an Email about it, he had a new switch on my front door step in three days, you cant ask for any better service than that, and his amps sound awesome.

[@dan82dare]

@@RByrne and LSL

[@mazklassa9338]

I can testify to that

[@TheCwilkie79]

Fully agree with this. I've had a couple of queries about my amps over the years, and he has always responded directly. Very impressed with the service - he truly stands by his products. Combine that with the outstanding tones and feel make them an easy sell! These new amps sound great. I've owned the original PT-20, sounds way bigger than it looks.

[@TheMerc1950]

Yup. That was a great tone to wake up to! I also cannot believe the first joke wasn't something like, "Nothing like plugging into a pink taco first thing in the morning!"

[@ivorharden]

These amps cement my theory that distortion sounds better from the amp instead of a pedal.

[@finishin.my.coffee8780]

I often find pedals to be too compressed. The only pedal I've heard that I like at the moment is the Wampler Belle.

[@MrMojoRiiisin]

Right Pedals are great but not the same

[@BITESIZEJONES]

I agree the amp Distortion especially this one sounds incredible. The pedals are always enhancement depending on how you use them. I could gladly plug straight in a Dirty Shirley and feel confident

[@zancoex91]

Nothing beats tube distortion, not even modelers to me

[@thorvelizelos]

When the amp sound is this well sculpted, it sure is better than any pedal..

[@deigonz]

Love the sound of a Peter going in dry into a Pink Taco.

Pink Taco V2 all the way! Sounded amazing Pete.

[@thenumber1bobo]

Not a single joke about "going into the pink taco dry"...sigh

[@cwmims]

You guys sold me on the Little Sister. I ended up buying one! It sounds even better than the video in person. Like Danish Pete kept saying "It sounds so good man!"

[@brandonanderson2066]

How's it sound at reasonable volume?

[@gazb2069]

​@@brandonanderson2066you need to try one, all the blurrrb about friedman master volume is true ,you won't need attenuation

[@schappam]

I own a Smallbox, and it is legitimately one of the best amps I've ever heard. But that Little Sister now has me reconsidering my entire life.

[@spaceshifterstereogunmachine]

Try a Frog amp ;)

[@charliewilkins3041]

After hearing Lee play just one chord, I immediately stopped the video and ordered a Little Shirley.

[@mikelamb6655]

Get one!!! sounds even better in person

[@Widdy5150]

1st time in ages Pete actually looks excited about a product.....must be good 👍🏼

[@str8shooter36]

Friedman amps have killer tone. I love that modded Marshall tone, reminds me of the 80's.

[@morningstar3188]

Pink Taco is 80s modded Marshall thrash sound all day long! Exactly what I'm looking for. I just bought the limited edition Wildwood version of it with the direct out/cab simulation and clean channel. Should be here in a week or so. Can't wait!

[@michalnastoupil6506]

Amazing sounding amps, thank you for the demo! Pink Taco really got me...

[@claypack5943]

The glorious tones and genuine adoration from Pete and Capt... I really want these amps now!

[@tris88]

@@claypack5943 spam post, ignore it

[@bbdeffect]

The reason these amps are so amazing to play is the picking dynamics.

That Telecaster into the Little Sister is everything one needs in life 💙

[@simoncote5995]

Pete playing it also

[@thelionhearted6824]

I have the Pink Taco v2. I've gone through a dual and triple rectifier, mark V, victory kraken, dual terror, and this is by far the best amp for metal I've ever played. Baritone in drop A with bareknuckle silos and it screams. Gain at noon for recording, around 3 for live. Just nasty piece of work, absolute hell of a beast.

[@beaumas]

That jam was like listening to early ACDC tones. Awesome playing, but Lee you just had the feeling in that jam!

[@calinb9500]

I know man sounded like the dog eat dog tone!

[@beaumas]

@@calinb9500 yeah!!! I certainly enjoyed it.

[@JesseLeeKing]

That pink taco will have you coming on back again and again

[@danstringer7610]

Thanks for the joy! That sounded awesome!!

[@CJBlake-rf7mv]

Lee has really improved his playing dramatically the last year. Well done.

[@charliedillon1400]

To be fair, he's always sitting next to Rabea, Pete , or Rob.

[@CJBlake-rf7mv]

@@charliedillon1400 Indeed, but now he is keeping up with them

[@cubstig]

@◽ DBMusic ◽ There are also guitarists that will play all their lives, and will never be as good as Lee is now. I'll never be Joey Dunlop, but I love motorcycling every single day. If you enjoy playing, play.

[@mrredritehand]

​@◽ DBMusic ◽ Speak for yourself

[@TheEchelon]

@◽ DBMusic ◽ 6 months? Yeah no. No one is going to take you seriously after making that statement.

[@frankmcpave7965]

Friedman amps are sooooo good! I've been using a "Runt 50" for two years now. I don't need any pedals anymore. My guitar straight into the amp and I'm in heaven! These amps are not cheap but absolutely worth the money!

[@MrRockguitar316]

I've had my runt for many years now and I just ordered a little sister combo. Friedman makes awesome stuff

[@STF_YVR]

@@MrRockguitar316Which one do you prefer ?

[@Zoso_1990]

The Little Sister just sounds so good.

[@jonnytremaine2561]

I have the mini Dirty Shirley and it’s the best amp I’ve ever owned. I will never part with it. Not sure I’d need the new little sister, but I’d be interested in checking out the PT v2 for a different flavour. What I really would like to see is a mini smallbox. I’d throw my money at that!! Great video cheers guys.

[@alkaliforever9051]

Love these videos. So helpful and a lot of fun. Thanks!

[@zeevshaff]

Never been that into Friedman but these amps are wow!

[@IamMusicNerd]

What amazes me is that Dave Friedman and Mike Soldano worked together to create the Synergy amp line, and the Dirty Shirley module and SLO module sound almost identical to the originals, and with real valves. So I can have both amps in one now. Heaven.

[@dljohnsonmusic]

Wow, these are some great sounding amp....another awesome product, these would be well worth the money....on my someday list

[@nickwinkler8231]

These amps are known for three things: great tone, great effects loops, great master volumes

[@lukesteverything627]

Well played gentlemen. A perfect rendition of the merry song our piper played as we entered the 'valley of death' in the Crimean war. Bertie, our Piper, lost his fingers in that escapade and has struggled to get this charming melody down since that day. I've told him you will pick me for the 'give-away' so he can share my win and get some splendid tones if not the whole song. Marvellous!

[@musicmann1967]

I totally dig these amps. Both of 'em!! I'm mostly a Tele guy, (but I have a Les Paul too, just in case!! lol) Pete on the Les Paul sounded great, but so did Lee, playing the Tele through the Little Sister. Great tones and breakup, even at slightly lower gain settings. Really great. I'm very impressed.

[@toneydavis9802]

Great video guys. Oh man those Friedmans! Want them all. Amazing outro 💜

[@TheRedSpecialPlayer]

Yes, modern tube amps with real old school tone. Who needs a modeler, a high gain amp or a channel switch? I am thrilled, the parts sound incredibly musical. As a well-known guitarist said to me a few days ago? "I don't need sound - I need tone." And here it is in its most beautiful British expression! I really enjoyed this video. 👍👍👍 With guitaristic greetings from Germany Mic 🙂

[@Mambojambo157]

It was time to buy myself a decent amp for the first time in my life. I got the Friedman Runt 20. Love it.

[@chiangjackie2175]

Runt 20 is killing as well.

[@JGStonedRaider]

Most excited I've ever seen Pete!

[@scheimedia3320]

wow they both sound amazing!

[@killer2382]

Great tones i love it! Perfect hard rock amp, looks like The Darkness tones.

[@willgoodchild4343]

Take my money now!!! I have a mini dirty Shirley and love it. Got to try the Twin Sister combo and have had it on the wish list but the little sister might be perfect for me… Damn you Friedman and Andertons!!

[@SpectreDusk]

Just placed an order for a 7 string Ibanez and a few other goodies, very excited! Glad a friend suggested Andertons and congrats on 800K!

[@homeworldmusic]

Catching up on this after hearing a great interview on Peach Guitars today. 15:31 "this is the downward dull position" and my reaction was "Fek....!" out loud. I mean, really, FEK! That is SO GOOD. Thanks guys: if you had a USA outlet, I'd send all my purchases to you.

[@Pantalooj]

The tone of the day for me, by a country mile was the Little Sister set almost clean at around 24:34 to 24:52 ... I could live with that alone no problem.

[@sethspears8083]

I want both! Got love friendman amps🤘🤘

[@DavidSmith-tw7ii]

Awesome video. Amazing amps. Last jam was the darkness I believe in a Thing Called Love. Love that song

[@lance134679]

I got the Runt 20 and I must say, one of the best amp purchases I've made (highly recommended if you want a dedicated clean channel and speaker-emulated XLR out). Still, I'm sure I would be happy with the Little Sister that has more of a modded '60s/'70s vibe. Dave knows amps! Thanks.

[@erickt1974]

What’s cleaner ? The runt or the little sister

[@dan82dare]

Probably the most excited I’ve seen Pete in any video! That means these must be gooooood!!! Definitely the best sounding rock and roll amp I’ve heard in the last few years! Up there with the Magnatone vid for me 🚀

[@matthew_thefallen]

wow now that pink taco is sounding beautiful!

[@ngronlund]

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for!

[@RByrne]

That pink taco 2 sounds unbelievable!

[@Fnnggjji]

Glad they finally used a 12 inch speaker. Had the 10 inch combo and sold it because of the lack of low end

[@InsolentMusicalPeasant]

I was wondering when we'd see that Tele again. Can't think of a better way to start the day than Lee and Pete rocking some new gear.

[@RECTIFIER101]

i love to see guitar players get over excited about playing through something that sounds awesome, makes me excited also lol.. that taco is a badass little amp

[@benforsey]

A few years ago I was lucky enough to try a Pink Taco with a PRS Silver Sky and a Fender Custom Shop Stratocaster, and I really felt it might be my perfect single channel amp. This new one sounds f*$*%&^ fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!

[@darrellkelly7614]

ANDERTON, You never sounded better straight dry. I swear it brought out so much tone.

[@roryyerama5496]

Pink Taco through a Marshall 1936 Vintage 2x12 cab is AC/DC Heaven in the low gain setting, then you still have more gain on tap if you want it! My favorite sound right now!

[@adamswanson8216]

As I have a dirty Shirley mini myself, I can tell you it is a hand wired amplifier with large alpha transformers much like the JJ Junior and Jay EL 20 my PT 20 also has similar large output when I looked inside these amps I noticed no hand wiring all PCB board construction One thing I love about my victory sheriff is that the Tube sockets are hand wired there is handwork going on in there and there is some in the little sister but not like before that’s why he lowered the price. Take a look inside the self thanks and thanks for keeping it real great demos and don’t give me wrong. I love Friedman amplifiers victory, and Friedman. I play four nights a week and I play all day every day and I’m 50 years old believe me totally blind and committed to music, but there is no doubt I have perfect pitch and I sure can assure you I know I can hear the difference 30:40 30:48

[@humbucker1414]

This is my favorite video of Danish Pete.

[@tedrackley6233]

Goodness Gracious! Best KZbin tones yet! I thought for sure you would have thrown the Marshall mini head on those cabs and done a comparison, but maybe that would not have been appropriate?

[@black22works]

Best Anderton's video ever!! 😊

[@brc3962]

I have the Smallbox and the Twin Sister and the thing about them is that they just sound great wherever you set the knobs. Also they have very controlled bottom end and forward midrange so they always cut through. By contrast, my Boogie Cali Tweed is finicky - it can sound heavenly but sometimes takes lots of tweaking to get there.

[@jdpower6360]

So strange I found your comment on the Cali Tweed Mesa. I’m trying to offload the amp for the last couple weeks. It literally has so much bass it’s unusable for me. Even with the bass at 0. It’s a bummer because it really is a beautifully made amp.

[@benjaminspudich8519]

Oh damn lee with that opening solo I see u that was great 👍 keep up the great work!

[@BellTunnel]

That jam at the end, dudes. 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@dewwhatchadew1]

[@veers0r]

Listened to the intro and thought that's a pretty sweet lead Lete is playing. Turns out it's just that Lee has become really good by now. Makes me hopeful that it's not too late to improve. :)

Friedman Amps: You get (more than) what you pay for-Now that’s a good T-shirt slogan. Dave does such good work and these amps sound superb.

[@danharding9136]

I just took delivery of this blind after watching the reviews. After years of buying under a £1k I wanted something special. I tried a milkman 1 watt plus which highly disappointed me. This amp is an amp for life. If you like Marshall tones this does it all but better. Rabeas review of the twin sister shows what this amp can do

When John Mayer was talking about his signature app, he said, you’ve got to know how to really play guitar to get the most out of the amp…. I would say the same goes for the Friedman, those Friedman amps are monsters!

[@pedromoose8860]

This is awesome

[@Paul_Lenard_Ewing]

At 75 and using a Plexi since '71 let me tell you the Little Sister is simply a Dream' Plexi!!! That's the sound. If you think the Taco is your thing then give it a second thought because you can use a pedal to get that kind of a sound but you cannot do the reverse. In a band the "Sister' will sit behind the vocals and not compete and it's no big deal hitting a pedal for a solo. BUT the Taco may have the Sister complaining you are too loud when it's just that the tone is distracting.

[@tone-talk]

Great video!!!
