Look familiar? Wanted one of these since they came out and the opportunity presented itself. Just drove ~8 hrs to get it, haven't even played it yet.

Happy birthday and congratulations on the NAD! Post some clips through your setup!!
 
Congrats. Those are great. Sold mine years ago. If I would of kept it I would have gotten an all black head shell and centered the chassis. I think that would be a killer look.

Here’s an old photochop I did when contemplating getting a black shell.

I remember for a very short period of time before joining the Friedman camp, Steve Stevens was seen at several live shows playing through Splawn Quickrods. In an interview from that time, he said he loved how tight and articulate they were - even at high volumes with a lot of gain. The Friedman SS definitely has its own thing going on and is tighter then much of the Friedman line-up - which tends to be a bit squishier and more compressed. Absolutely no value judgment intended there at all - just what my ears hear and what my hands feel when I’ve plugged into the few Friedman’s that I have played through. They always sound glorious. I dig the SS and the Phil X.
 
Happy B day Matt! And congrats; that and the PhilX are my two favorite of the ones I've played.
