Better made, better quality components, much better transformers. They use a Fender-style tone stack with a fixed mid resistor. That's when they call Dave Firedman! big caps filtering the B+. ", ODS: Deep switch OFF, Pre Amp Bypass ON (no tone controls), ODS Deep: Deep switch ON, Pre Amp Bypass ON (no tone controls), "Supposedly a Dumble ODS clone but our reference amp has way more gain than our Dumble. ", [before 19.02 for the Axe-Fx III] "There is no "High" channel on a 59 Bassman. There are two gain stages. If you don't push the power amp all you are hearing is the preamp which is voiced to be trebly. Friedman Pink Taco 20W 1x10 Tube Guitar Combo Amp | Reverb I.e. ", "The AB165 uses 7025 preamp tubes (which are relabeled 12AX7). The gains are the same. Sound great though. It has a boatload of gain and sounds more like a Plexi than a Fender. With sound qualities that rival the very best Vox, Fender and Marshall, within one box, the Buxom Betty is the definition of versatile. If you want the Channel 1 sound with an Axe-Fx use the Brit JM45 Jump model and turn the Treble Drive knob all the way down. My gut tells me that they did this because they feared there would be too many reports of pickup squeal (or the amps would be too unstable at high gain). If you don't want it to break up as easy turn Input Trim to 0.5 to simulate using the "Low" input, reduce Input Drive and MV as necessary. Friedman Amps. The amp block only supports Off and On and I figured people wouldn't know the fine details so a separate model seemed the easiest solution. Theyre much easier to play and highly saturated. - Dave Friedman - Friedman Amplification CEO. turn the Mid, Treble and Presence way up; turn Norm Drive and Bass down a bit. ", (about the Drive knob) "Our reference amp has a linear taper pot so the behavior is very abrupt. Cab: Hook 2x12 or 4x12 (V30, G12H, G12-65, WGS), Channel 1: Gain (with Pull function), Level, Bass, Mid, Treble, Boost switch (not modeled), EQ bypass switch, Bright switch. ", (negative feedback) "I've seen JTM45s with 27K off the 16-ohm tap. ", "When modding Marshalls for higher gain sometimes the modder will decrease the input frequency response to reduce noise and fizziness. Very spitty as one would expect given the lack of a grid stopper resistor between the last triode stage and the PI. If an emulation sounds darker or more midrangey than the real amp try turning down the MV. We earn a commission if you make a purchase, at no additional cost to you. ", "USA JP models have a fixed Input Drive so when switching to the models the Input Drive is reset to the default value. ", "I have an actual Slash signature model and spent a lot of time measuring, listening and comparing. "There are quite a few differences between a 5F6-A and the reissue: Different tone stack (this is a big one). I feel people need to approach this model very simply. excellent!) It biases the stage much too cold for my tastes. also make the pads plenty big and the traces fat as practical, and always use plated thru holes. It's a really cool amp. Remember this was BEFORE anyone had even degooped or documented a Bluesmaster style circuit and the only thing Shad was building was his post count at AmpGarage asking about Dumble circuits. Honestly whats wrong the the marshall studio's though? Some had 47K off the 8-ohm tap.

", "Cameron amps are basically modified Marshalls. When you consider 3 toggles hanging freely 'hand wired' vs 3 toggles anchored at the back to this tank of a PCB the PCB approach is more robust. That's due to the cathode follower. The Recto1 models are based on our Rev. Super versatile, due to its 3-way gain-structure-switch, the Pink Taco is able to perform well for many different genres, this hand-wired, single-channel, 20-watt amp is capable of producing classic rock and heavy metal just as well as country and blues.

That will make it somewhat flat but you still have the bright cap on the drive and the bandpass between the preamp and power amp. The tone stack is a Baxandall which is more common in hi-fi gear than guitar amps. Friedman's designs are a bit odd in that he takes the feedback off the speaker jack rather than off a transformer tap. However, you'd be surprised that a Twin isn't nearly as clean as you think. ", "The Atomica can tolerate high MV because it is a "Jose-style MV". Dave Friedman is the man behind the signature tones of rock icons Eddie Van Halen, Steve Stevens and Jerry Cantrell. Especially for the price in europe. Lowering the Cathode Resistance reduces the crossover distortion as it keeps the amp in Class A operation longer but the tubes run hotter and don't last as long. Another option is to use the FAS Express model which puts some resistors between the last triode stage and the PI to reduce the bias excursion. On PCB amps I usually only have issues with the hookup wires but never the board itself unless a design issue. Weird Bridge-T sorta tone stack. ", Boosted for more gain and high-frequency emphasis, "The secret of the Chieftain is the split cathode bias. This is accomplished typically by putting a capacitor in parallel with the plate resistor(s) which rolls off around a few kHz.

The cathode capacitor charges up and the bias point shifts dramatically. ", "The model was matched to Dweezil's amp. ", "All these amps have the same basic circuit with minor differences. Guitarists with decades of experience speak of their shock at just how good this amp sounds. This means that at noon the amp is nearly at full gain. The comparison was between the model and the Reissue because the vintage amp is worth a small fortune and I only use that when actually working on models. ", "The SLO-100 is the loudest amp I've ever used. ", "Default MV is quite high in that model which will mask the effect of the Presence control since the power amp is distorting heavily (I find that amp sounds best with the power amp driven hard). ", "Based on the PVH 6160 model but more open and less fizzy than the original amp. We struggled to find a thing wrong with this amp in honesty. Adjust LF Res, Freq and Q to get desired response. Mesa knew this and the Lead 2 modes on the Triaxis all had the treble shift engaged by default. Was hearing a lot of ghost notes compared to the old algorithm (in the debug build I can select between algorithms with a hidden parameter) and figured that couldn't be right. Friedman and Cantrell spent many years perfecting the classic JJ sound and then condensed this into a smaller format, yet cleverly with no sacrifices being made and the same tonal experience offered. She knows all of the frustrations that come with learning the instrument without any formal lessons. Our model is based on a 1981 2204 Master Volume JMP. This reduces the bandwidth which lowers the hiss. Turn down the Preamp Bias Excursion to reduce it. This results in a bouncier feel. ", (about the Trainwreck Express) "That amp exhibits a lot of blocking distortion (in the phase inverter) due to its design. The new Herbert is tighter and sits in the mix better. ", "The Vintage tone stack is a passive EQ model but it has a flat response when the controls are at noon.
