Good Friedman Phil X video clip, Updated Clip!

[Beyond Black]

Hope this isn't true, but I heard from a very good source that Friedman is having issues with Phil X & may be discontinuing the amp & possibly re-introducing it with a different name.

REALLY??? Please share the details from this "reliable" source. Because this is news to Dave and I .

Sorry, this is what I heard from a reliable source, as I said, hoped it wasn't true. We'll see what happens in the future.

Btw, this is the same source that told me Egnator was building your amps before you came out with the news much later.

it cant be "reliable" when both your statements are incorrect :doh
all is good

If you say so. I do know that your amps were built by Egnator. They're not anymore, but they used to be & that's a 100% As for the friction between Phil X & Friedman, I hope it's not true, but apparently Phil is acting like somewhat of a Diva now a days, not showing up for photo shoots acting 'not so nice' etc

its not "100% fact" when your 100% wrong

Ok, I guess we agree to disagree, but I'm 10000000% sure Egnator used to build Friedmans.

Either way, I love Friedman Dirty Shirley & can't wait for the BE pedal to come out.

Dude, you're arguing information from a "reputable source" against information from the actual source. You really can't win this one. Plus, you keep spelling "Egnater" incorrectly.

Dude!!! This isn't a contest. I'm not trying to win anything. I'm telling you what I heard & this person is incredibly reliable & has no reason to make up anything or lie. If Rob wants to deny that his amps were made by egnatEr & that there is no issues with Phil X, then great. Sounds good to me.

really what you are doing is continually presenting something as fact that those directly involved have refuted - several times.

maybe if you arent willing to put up you should just shut up...with all due respect to you and your ultra-reliable, super-duper, top-secret source

Whatever DUDE. This is the same source that told me long before it was made public that Friedman amps were being built by Egnater. Rob 100% refuted that in his post yesterday & then Dave said actually they're made by a company that owns/affilaited Egnater. Isn't that the pretty much same thing? Didn't Rob just say it wasn't true?

Is my source wrong? Maybe. Can Friedman be in damage control mode. Maybe. At this point, just let it be. It's pointless.

DUDE, every one of your posts on this thread have been "pointless." Are you trolling, or just fucking retarded?

yeah, that's right, I'm trolling. Great comeback.

What about when Rob said the amps 100% weren't made by Egnater & what I said was false. Then Dave said actually they're made by a company that owns Egnater. Was I lying & trolling?

I like Friedmans as much as the next guy, but I'm not lying or trolling.

Just let it go & move on.

you said: "I do know that your amps were built by Egnator"..

dave said: "EGNATER has never made our amps"

sounds like dave (and Rob) 100% refuted what you claimed...its old news that they expanded their operation and distribution.

Rob simply said Egnator didn't build their amps, in response to your claim that they did - the same thing Dave said...dont try and spin it like somehow they've been changing their story.

you are the one who is trying to clean up his shit by saying things like 'pretty much the same thing'.

look, you want to post whatever you 'heard', fine - i wouldnt (as its just rumor, hearsay, and innuendo), but if you want to, whatever.

however, when some of the people directly involved say its not true - and you keep doubling down and say 'agree to disagree', 'we'll see what happens in the future', etc. its just comes across as douchy and more interested in arguing and being 'right' than trying to get any accurate, factual information.

i think thats what people are responding to.

DUDE, Egnater USED to build their amps. It's fact. Whether it's Egnater or a company that owns/affiliated with Egnater, it's the same thing.

Btw, there's nothing wrong with anyone building anyone else's amp. As long as the quality is good, it makes no difference.

I wouldn't even care if they had their amps made in China as long as they remained the same quality & the price came down. Good quality is good quality is good quality regardless of who or where something is made.

Now let's end this nonsense as it's taking up useless bandwidth.

Ok well if this is the way you see it then we are made by EGNATER,65 amps,b52,morgan,bogner and DIEZEL oh and Wizard maybe. So there you go. Actually amps are manufactured by ETI Sound Systems dba Boutique Amps Distribution, under my full supervision... I am there all the time and test all amps that leave.

dave, its awesome you post here - but, seriously, dont waste a whole lot of your valuable time on this one.

hes more interested in being seen as right than he is in facts.

oh yeah, sorry to hear about the falling out with phil lol

 

[Anonymous]

The thing that would improve this demo most would be a sense of timing...

That was SO completely unnecessary and way beneath your level Steve.
Let's evaluate what the video is REALLY about. Don't hate just to hate on something.

Fuck.

It distracted me, sorry...

Dave, how could you let anybody else touch an amp with your name on it? You should be sitting on a vintage curly Maple stool in front of a 42"x18"x1.75" edge grain butcher block style bench in a garage laboriously, tediously, painstakingly hand wiring every amp, signing every component to assure authenticity and hand delivering them to your customers.

This probably sounds hard but trust me, you could easily ship an amp a month and people would think you were really cool.

I'd really love to have an SS but this thread has me rethinking it altogether.

 

[Gadzz]

The Phil X sounds great! My SS and DS mini are as fantastic love them both! However this thread has become silly!

 

[sixty-niner]

talk about "having to be right" let it go dude, saying Egnater built the amps and the company that builds the amps for Egnater and other boutique amps is very different.

 

[ElectricVoodoo]

I have news for you guys, not only did Egnater aid in the building process, word from a very very reliable source says that Paul Reubens aka Pee Wee Herman, who is a known guitarist, enthusiast and avid player, had great imput in the engineering as well.

This has been public knowledge for years.

 

[sleewell2]

a whole lotta stupid coming from one direction in this thread.

 

[Harley90]

Thanks for posting the clip....even after all the crazyness that went on in the thread. I like Phil X and Friedman , so it's all good to me.

 

[journeyman73]

Maybe it's the recording or the way he's got it dialed in, but that sounds very nasally to me.

Keep in mind he has the variac-like switch engaged...that changes the sound a bit

 

[BOUTIQUEAMPSDIST]

ElectricVoodoo,

The statements you are making are 100% inaccurate. They are either made because you simply don't know or because you are attempting to start some sort of a silly rumor.

Dave Friedman and Bruce Egnater are life long friends. In fact almost all of the boutique amp builders/designers are friends. Egnater is Egnater and Friedman is Friedman. They are COMPLETELY separate companies even though we distribute both brands. We also distribute Bogner pedals, Morgan Amps, 65Amps, Synergy, Falbo and much more. So saying Friedman and Egnater are distributed by the same company is an accurate statement. Saying Egnater is making or designing for Friedman is utter nonsense.

So now:

1) Dave Friedman told you.
2) His partner Rob told you.
3) You are welcome to call Bruce Egnater and he will tell you.
4) I own Boutique Amps Distribution and I am telling you.

You can now either believe this or considering publishing your comments in the upcoming issue of "Conspiracy Weekly" - maybe it will get some traction there.

 

[spliffsperlunk]

There seems to be a lot of vitriol directed toward Freidman/Friedman Amps on here (Not just this thread) , What did Dave do to garner it if I may ask?

Are you getting paid or something to just take potshots?

Throw some shit at the wall as facts, hope it sticks, get called on it, throw some other shit?

Great way to derail a thread about a particular amp
