A very rare original run 2 input Friedman BE 100. These rarely come up for sale.
This is the 93rd ever made, serial number 0093. They were hand wired by George Metropoulos for a very small time. It’s believed only around 200 were made of these.
This has the red turret board he used. The power section is loaded with Winged C el34 power tubes I have a newer production run Be 100 and this 2 input version is more open and raw to my ear. This reminds me more of a Marshall than the newer Be 100. These early BE 100s also had a 50/100 watt switch. There is some wear on the Tolex but no major damage or significant tears or rips. This will come with a one button channel switching footswitch and power cable

$2500 Shipped mostly looking to sell but may consider trades for other high end guitars or amps

These early ones are the one's to get and best sounding BE-100s imo!
I seen a video or something Dave was thinking about building up this variation again!
It's darker and more rounded and utilized elevated DC heaters, not AC nor DC.
At $2500, is a discount. Would highly advise anyone who enjoys the BE sound to pick this up.
You can have Dave or someone modify it so instead of the 2 inputs, you can have it a later revision with 2-channel foot switching for CHANNEL and BOOST, as my #0079 was!!
