    SL67 vs. SL68 PreAmp

    Is the difference strictly in power amp section (i.e. 50W vs. 100W) or are the pre-amp sections different as well? Thanks!

    Dirty Shirley: Updates?

    Other then the 3-way gain switch, have there been any other voicing or circuit changes (like on the BE-100) on the new versions of DS?

    Dirty Shirley: Tube or SS rectified?

    Hey all ... doesn't say on the website but in the photo it seems like there is a tube rectifier in there. If yes, which one? Thanks!

    Wiring Question for Dave

    Apologies for non-direct Friedman product related question but figured this would be the best place to ask anyway ... I have a medium pedalboard powered by Voodoo Labs 4x4, very simple all in-line other then BOSS DD-500 which goes through the loop. Currently I'm using BOSS TU-3 for input...

    Strange El Cap issue in FX Loop

    Hiya'all ... Strymon El Capistan <=> Mark V FX Loop When connected this way, the repeats are very low in volume no matter where Mix is set ... can't get them to be even close to unity with dry signal. When plugged in front of the amp, it works perfectly fine and as expected. Dry signal sounds...

    Buffer Impedance?

    Just wondering what the input impedance of the buffer in the patch bay is and was there a specific reason for designing it that way? (i.e. what would be the difference between 500kOhm vs. 1MOhm ... etc.) Thanks!

    BE-100 sounds better on low volumes without attenuator

    Have been using my Rivera Rockcrusher for house playing and it sounds great, best attenuator I have had so far. Just for shits and giggles, hooked up the head straight to the cab and set it to similar volume ... sounds better. Noticeable better. Clearer and punchier even at the low volume...

    Safe to switch pre-amp tubes on the fly?

    BE-100 or any other amp I guess ... what should I do when switching pre-amp tubes? - turn the amp off completely - put on standby - don't worry about it and switch them while amp is on :confused:

    I think it looks much better this way ...

    Sorry Dave ... just had to do it ... :lol: :LOL: Yeah ... my OCD was kicking in hard and I don't mean the Fulltone pedal! I always thought the regular black knobs looked a bit out of place as overall styling was so decidedly "Plexi". I don't mind those black knobs on other models as...

    Suggestions for loop Noise Gate

    Hey Dave and all ... what are your fav noise gates? Would be placed in the loop for some high gain chug. Preferably in pedal form. Used to have ISP on my board but read somewhere that it's not the most transparent in the loop. Looking at MXR Smart Gate.

    Dirty Shirley tube question: why 5881 vs. 6L6?

    I know it comes with 5881 but can it take 6L6 as well? Watching some older Amp Show vids and seems like it used to come with 6L6. Why the change and what would be the difference in sound and performance? Entertaining the thought of DS 1x12 combo and have some NOS 6L6 at home that I could swap...
