I went with the Marshall 1960B 4x12. It has 2 20w Greenbacks in the top, and V30 in the Bottom. I mic’d a Greenback with a 57, and a v30 and blended them 60/40 leaning on the Greenback. Into API preamps. I have TwoNotes IR and Overloud Supercab IR of this cab. They both sound killer too. When I was working on writing the tune, I did it at home with Loadbox and IR. It sounded awesome too.
@@BigHairyGuitars that is a great sounding amp! Seems more killer Plexi than JCM800 on steroids. It’s super smooth but hits like a hammer. Is that a fair comparison in the room?
Wow! Killer tone and nice playing, great tune! Would you give a brief thought on splitting speaker cabs with two sets of different speakers. I've been contemplating doing this for a couple of years. Is it really a big difference? Thank you! 💚🎸
@@californiasurfpunkmetal6207 I think a LOT of people are after that really percussive plexi tone these days, that's killer for articulate rhythm playing. Hopefully, Friedman see's that. That tone seems to have gotten lost in the "gain wars". The punchy, percussive, razor-sharp, crisp mid-heavy tone Michael dialed up towards the beginning of the video was spot on for rhythm "riff-playing". I'd love to see Friedman devote an amp to his core line capable of getting that tone. To my knowledge this is the only amp I've heard of his that can get that...short of maybe the Jake E. Lee signature. Great demo.
Michael this Sounds Fantastic!!!!! More gain goin’ on here than what Stevie Steve typically uses, and yet it holds together fantastic!!! All that clarity and chewy Marshall bite and super tight low end!!!! ……………..I WANT WANT WANT one
Thanks! I was trying to find a middle ground between the classic cranked non-master volume tones of the classic years, and his modern stuff that has TONS of gain.
Just when I thought amp modeling has taken great strides, a real amp and an amazing player bring the baseline back up. The dynamics, the pleasant top end. Great video!
Ripping, as always! Great tones Michael, and what a killer track to start off the whole video. I love your channel. Always fun to watch and...well, a great source of inspiration for my own playing.
Gotta say that is a lot of clarity for such high gain levels. Too hot for my needs but still another high quality amp from Friedman and Stevens. Always a well produced and fun walkthrough. Thanks
That riff on the intro track was HUGE!! Sounded killer, Michael! Love your frowny rock faces too - a total sign that you are ALL the way into your music!!! Love your videos!
From what? What did you hear? Modern amplification has 30 amplifiers in the 1 amplifier now. This is a pathetic amplifier. TV amplifiers are see through now. This stupid amplifier isn't even see through.
How many crazy guitar faces can i make just watching a video.......? all of them... Great playing Michael! congrats Dave and Steve, another great colabiration.
Ooohhh Yeahhh-You did an excellent job capturing that amps high gain tone with your guitar playing👍🏼 {Great Riff} Your one of the very few guitarists/producers/enthusiasts on UA-cam that I can actually watch! I love the that your level of self-promotion isn’t at the forefront of your overall attitude👍🏼 Keep up the great work and by all means, keep bringing us more great amps🤘🏼☮️☠️☯️🤘🏼
Yeah when SS plays it in his vid with Dave its got the girth and guts I just love with all the high, mid and clean trimmings. Beautiful sonorous lead tones. Man I think this is the one. Durability is my only question for the $
Michael, how was this recorded? Using mics or IR’s?? That thing is a monster..

Sounds killer with exceptional clarity/string definition!!!
Man, that amps sounds so dam good! Great video as always.
Thanks buddy!!!
Wrong.
The customer IS gone never to return.
@@dreyn7780 This seems to be an answer to a question that I'm unaware of.
The voice leading / progressions and the melodies in the intro song 🔥
Absolutely killer tone, opening track was awesome! fantastic playing as well !
That's Show - Ya from japan.
Steve WHO, don't want to know.
wE'VE moved on. We're not interested in stuff like this.
Never were, never will be.
Yes 3 channels! I'm in love with this amp! Sounds like perfection.
That amp sounds like a plexi with all the gain of a 5150. What a monster.
Great playing as always Michael.
Well that was totally freakin awesome!!!
Thanks Brett!
Mike's back and better than ever
Sweet jesus that amp sounds killer! And that track was perfect... blown away. thank you!
Welcome back, I really missed you! And what a marvelous intro song. Gee.
Thanks Sven!
We've been waiting soooo long for a new video...thx
Sorry. Thanks Alex!
This is the smoothest, best sounding amp you have demoed so far, and that opening song was effing incredible.
Dude what an intro!
Thank you brother!

Superb demonstration, Michael! Thanks for the video, as always.
Holy crap that (and you) sound insanely badass!
Thank my man!
Listening again :50-1:15 is just magical Michael!!
Haha I literally listened to that section like 5 times before seeing your comment! Awesome 😊
Simply awesome, both the amp and your playing Michael. Great vid!
Just when I thought amp modeling has taken great strides, a real amp and an amazing player bring the baseline back up. The dynamics, the pleasant top end. Great video!
Having watched your channel for a long time, you have definitely made me a Friedman fan!
Thanks!!!
Ripping, as always! Great tones Michael, and what a killer track to start off the whole video. I love your channel. Always fun to watch and...well, a great source of inspiration for my own playing.
Thanks Steve!
@@BigHairyGuitars Absolutely Michael! Keep em coming!
Michael's back! Great playing!
Great sounding amp! Great playing as well Michael!
11:10 is nuts...in a good way! Keep rockin!
Man, that intro Song is absolutly awesome! Great !!
Thanks Bastian! I appreciate it
You crushed it out of the park again Nielsen.
Gotta say that is a lot of clarity for such high gain levels. Too hot for my needs but still another high quality amp from Friedman and Stevens. Always a well produced and fun walkthrough. Thanks
Agreed - I always think this channel is undersubscribed.
Always a fantastic demo!!
Thanks!!!
Great demo and outstanding playing!
Wow that might be your best intro song! Would totally listen to it on spotify! The amp sounds great! Seriously wow!
Thanks Raphael! :)
Great demo and great playing! The dirt sounds are great, but wow - that clean sound is glorious.
Great song, great playing, great amp. ✅
Every intro track for every Friedman video makes me want that amplifier.
😂😂
That riff on the intro track was HUGE!! Sounded killer, Michael! Love your frowny rock faces too - a total sign that you are ALL the way into your music!!! Love your videos!
Thanks bud!!!
From what?
What did you hear?
Modern amplification has 30 amplifiers in the 1 amplifier now.
This is a pathetic amplifier.
TV amplifiers are see through now.
This stupid amplifier isn't even see through.
Brilliant amp, thanks for the demo Michael, sweet playing too!
How many crazy guitar faces can i make just watching a video.......? all of them... Great playing Michael! congrats Dave and Steve, another great colabiration.
Hahaha! Thanks!
Killer amp and the intro track sounded great well done...
Thanks!!!
Outstanding Michael! Intro track was an absolute stunner. 🤘🎸🖤
Thanks!!!!!!
NO, what is a stunner is the new television amplifiers.
Modern amplification is see through now.
Uvodni stvar je fenomenalna😎
Epic rock tones!!🔥👍
Seems like it has relatively less compression and smoothness than a typical Friedman, and I am digging that. Awesome intro and great demo!
Wow! Killer song and playing!
Sound killer man! Great playing!
In the top 5 of the greatest amps I've ever heard. It would be impossible to choose between this one and the Friedman JEL-100
Dude... ray gun effect for the win!!! Steve would be proud of you, Mike.
HAHA! Thanks Shea!
@@BigHairyGuitars You're welcome amigo. Keep up the good work and see if you can get a THU package for the Mortin amp you demo-ed for us, please!!!!!
Epic tone and playing! raygun=icing on the cake.
Fantastic playing
Dude! Fantastic playing & Demo! “Dave take my $$!” Again!🤙🏽🤙🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
That is one wicked amp! Wish I could afford one.
Dig it, man! That track is killing! (and love the little "Eyes Without A Face" nod!)
Thanks! Love that tune!
Yessss!!! Today is suddenly a great day 😎😎😎😎
Never saw that EVH Wolfgang of yours before.... sounds pretty awesome... besides the point
Great Playing! I love your videos!
Thank you James
Fantastic intro track. 0:54 piece is to do die for. Amp ain't half bad either. Good job.
Great rock production. It sounds "ready".
Amp sounds fantastic! Great riff to showcase it. And that Wolfgang! We need a video just on that sucker! Friedman has done it again 👍
Will do! Thanks!
EVH guitars contain brand exclusive electrical signals.
Great playing and riff. Oh, the amp sounds evil as all hell too!
Thanks Bazman!
Awesome Demo and Tune! Killer amp. Don't forget The Atomic Playboys!!
Pet the hot kitty!!!!
Ooohhh Yeahhh-You did an excellent job capturing that amps high gain tone with your guitar playing👍🏼 {Great Riff}
Your one of the very few guitarists/producers/enthusiasts on UA-cam that I can actually watch!
I love the that your level of self-promotion isn’t at the forefront of your overall attitude👍🏼
Keep up the great work and by all means, keep bringing us more great amps🤘🏼☮️☠️☯️🤘🏼
Thanks Doug!
Yeah killer demo (as always). Got my SS100 on order - cannot wait after hearing this
Congrats! I’m sure you’re gonna love it Flash!
The OG version or the new Version 2? I'm trying to find a link to order the new v2 but can't find anything anywhere.
Congrats either way!
@@KyleKingGuitar you'll need to contact your local Friedman dealer in your area/country
Classy playing and such a great review!
Holy S#€&!
What a intro. One of the best so far...
Ok. I want to buy the amp. You nailed it.
Cheers,
Saw Billy Idol last year, at Brixton Academy, He was very good, Steve was excellent, and his tone was very, very good.
Amazing track, My favorite so far, fantastic demo as always, all the best.
Thanks so much!
intro song was awesome ! well done ! this amp sounds very good !!
Great sound, clean channel are great...I like them bought 👌
Thanks for doing the video on this amp, I think it's one of the best amps at Friedman makes 🤘🤘🤘
For sure! Yeah, the SS is killer.
Spectacular great sound like always
That is the best sounding amp I have ever heard. 😃
Since 2020 waiting for this one, now it's time.to.get.it. great video!
The ray gun! Yes!
Sounds so good great intro track
Sounds killer. And great playing, bro'.
Great demo!
Good gravy, that sounds incredible!
This warrants a Kemper Profile
Welcome back Michael!! Way to kick everyone's ass!!!!
Thanks!!!! 😊
I played a SS at Namm 2017. It's a great alternative to the BE.
Sounds awesome
Sounds ripping man! Hope you're doing well.
Ese fue mi amigo un enorme Intro y con este amplificador SS-100 v2 fue algo de otro nivel!!!f
The global master is genius. All multi channel amps should have that.
Yes!!!
Typical Friedman sounds amazing as always 👏🏼
What a song man!
I’ve had a SmallBox and DS40 for years. I need this amp!!
Dude. GREAT JOB !!!
Yeah when SS plays it in his vid with Dave its got the girth and guts I just love with all the high, mid and clean trimmings. Beautiful sonorous lead tones. Man I think this is the one. Durability is my only question for the $
Yeah! Gargantuan gain structure yet retaining all the dynamics you would want. Love it! Time to save some money for this 😎
Wrong, and NO.
Not wasting time or money anymore.
This is a dead hobby.
The dynamics causes all your money to disappear and never to return.
@@dreyn7780 not sure if youre ironic or not, but hey if not, more amps for me 🤩
Thank you for doing this! Amps sounds amazing. I'd love to see videos on the Butterlax and Phil X model as well. Cheers!
Great sounding amp!
Damn, this track is just awesome!
really good opening song
There you are!
When you least expect it! ;)
Love those Guitars
Thanks!
Dang... just when I thought I didn’t need another amp and this video shows up!
You and me both! 😅
That has a very warm and juicy tone. Those tubes must have been burning extra hot . Sounded thick . I want one.
Love it!!!! I need one ASAP!!!!!
