[@johngraves2185]

I love this amp! It just sounds fucking great!

[@Greg-rd8qr]

Awesome sounding amplifier!!!!!!

[@giancarlopaolini7529]

Nice stuff :-) as usual .....suddenly I fell in love with this PT V2 ....

[@58lp2002]

I see it does come in a combo, great! I love my PT 20 combo - the best little Marshall around.

[@jeremythornton433]

How could anyone not want a Pink Taco?

[@pwnEdge1]

I just started watching this , didn’t realize I had the play back speed a half speed , thought Dave had a little to much to drink 🤣🤣🤣 , just tried the amp , awesome 👍🏻🎸😎

[@TDBridge]

TESLA! Amp rocks, still love my be50 dlx

[@AdrianCummings-r2d]

Amazing amp awesome pkaying

[@adamswanson8216]

It’s amazing how great these amps sound and yet it does not sound like the noise floor is out of control so again I understand 60s cycle hum, but usually with this kind of gain you would have a lot of hiss but these amps are fantastic man really and they have such a presence the sound is amazing 1:32

[@draper858]

Add your simple clean channel and make the structure switch foot switchable and it’s perfect for me! We can dream right?

[@richardgarcia406]

I’ve been wondering how close the PT20 is to the JEL20 as far as level and type of gain.

[@Jarrodpimental]

My favorite amp

[@Stereostupid]

Absolutely beautiful

[@Mariusz-o7y]

A very nice sound. I am interested if there is any hum present after switching on (like Marshalls) or it is quiet like some German amps. What about using at bedroom level without attenuator? Can I set the amp with noise gate to be completely quiet when stop playing?

[@Scott__C]

Sounds awesome, of course. What speaker was this plugged into and sounded like he had a delay on that too?

[@NStuffMusic]

NO Speaker. This was running through The OX

[@Scott__C]

@@NStuffMusic Thanks!

[@58lp2002]

Awesome! Will it come in a combo?

[@NStuffMusic]

Yes it will

[@phillamoore157]

Absolutely love that guitar he's playing. After playing all the lunchbox amps, the Little Sister still has a nicer sounding classic hard rock sound. It's more defined, and punchy, than the PT....especially, if using an LP. And, all you have to do to get that fat, Bassman, JTM45 bluesy tone is adjust the Gain setting, with a strat. But, I digress....it's still a great amp, and the V2 is even better. Any time you have Dave at the helm, it's a great thing. He dials it in the way the amp was designed to sound, as opposed to some rivet-head completely diming the gain so he can "chug".

[@NStuffMusic]

Little Sister demo with Dave Friedman coming up this afternoon.

[@phillamoore157]

@@NStuffMusic Outstanding! I don't think people truly understand how good that amp is. I know how it sounds best with my particular setup, but I'll look very forward to seeing how Dave tweaks it.

[@steverherb]

The PT v2 does sound great, but I actually preferred the Little Sister for its classic 70's heavy rock tone. I may still get this or the JEL-20 in the future. Can't really go wrong with a Friedman amp

[@phillamoore157]

@@steverherb Man…you’re spot on, with every word. I went with the Little Sister. But, had the JEL-20 been out I probably would’ve went with that one. But, the LS just sounds so friggin good with every guitar I have. Not a single style of music (worth playing) it can’t handle. There was a time when I was convinced I would trade in the LS for the JEL, but I’ve decided to just purchase the JEL separately. I know I’d really miss it. Btw…I’m also using an EVO MOD on the Little Sister, and it sounds absolutely KILLER with a good crunch tone dialed in. But, I just heard one on the JEL and it sounds even better on that circuit. Really looking forward to getting that amp. And, Friedman’s customer service is absolutely spectacular. He’s gone WAY above and beyond for me over the years.

[@monkeyrater]

Is that just the amp? It sounds like there is delay or reverb

[@NStuffMusic]

There is some delay and reverb added via The OX

[@monkeyrater]

@@NStuffMusic That honestly ruins the tone. Friedman gear always sounds best dry.

[@NStuffMusic]

@@monkeyrater I mean, Dave Friedman, the guy explaining the amp in the video, whose name is on the amp, dialed in the delay and reverb. I'm gonna go with his ear on this one!

[@monkeyrater]

@@NStuffMusic OK, let me explain this in more detail. Dave is known for the plexi sound in his amps and pedals. Plexi is NOT high gain, its more of a 70s rock sound. If you want to know what plexi sound sounds like, I recommend you do a YT search for plexi pedals, you will find that these pedals have a unique sound. One thing that makes these plexi pedals different than other overdrive or distortion pedals is that they sound great dry. Most low gain distortion pedals sound like ass by themselves and need reverb and delay to sound good. Or they need the amp to turned up to the point of clipping to sound good. So I want to stress here that the Pink Taco is a plexi sounding amp, its not a high gain amp like the BE. So its a mistake for Dave to put reverb/delay on it. Even though Dave is a a brilliant tone shaper for his amps/pedals, he has bad taste in music, ie he thinks VH2 was the best tone of all the VH albums.

[@justsomerandomguyman]

@@monkeyrater Your comments are, frankly, retarded. lol. Reverb and delay are used by many, many people for all sorts of things. They are extremely common for clean tones and leads/solos, regardless of the amp.

[@firehawkbandit93]

At least for part of the video I’d like to hear the amp without all of the delay and reverb.

[@draper858]

Be great if gain structure was footswitchable

[@stevedahl]

Why no channel switch?

[@Scott__C]

One channel.

[@wadehickam2458]

I love NOT having a presence control

[@steverherb]

I can see your point. The Little Sister doesn't have Presence either. I don't really miss it
