New Friedman "Merkin" 50-Watt Amp

[gtr31]

i'm betting just the BE channel of the BE100, no clean, no boost, just killer 50w goodness

Hard to see the Merkin knobs but im guessing BE & cleen.
Dont know about boost.

not enough Knobs to be a clean IMO

You probably have Gain ,Bass ,Mid ,Treble ,Presence. Master Maybe a dual master if the saturation "jose" mode is in it

so the 20 is 1499 ,the 100 is 3299 , guess 1999 to 2299??

I'm guessing $2,599.

I just don't get the childish, idiotic names he gives those amps

It's his company. He can name them whatever he wants. Some people dont like the names? Such is life. I dont see Dave taking a poll to make sure everyone is happy with his amp names any time soon.

I always hate the super secret soon to find out stuff,,, BE only, with power scaling??? And where does he find these names? Had no idea what a Merkin is, new one on me

Do you really need to get it??

 

[yngzaklynch]

Does the amp come with an actual Merkin ?

 

[joepete77]

Man, I hate it when you buy a mega expensive amp and then the maker keeps updating it within a relatively short time which means either sending it back for updates which cost $$$ not to mention whether it will make it there and back in one piece but it also de-values your amp because most of the time people want all the features. So now add full EQ on clean to footswitchable BE or HBE and the VH switch...fuuuuck me! Should have waited.

I agree. A heads up should have been given.

Daves a Marshall guy, his layout on the Merkin is prolly L to R, presence, bass, midZ, treble, Pre, Master, Cleen.

The BE100 is $3699

 

[Kapo_Polenton]

Hezus, 3700$ for an amp?!!!!! I just don't know what to say. They sound great but almost 4k great I guess is in the eye of the beholder.

 

[yankeebulldog]

So, maybe you'll actually get one of these delivered in 2019?

 

[Ventura]

For this kinda money I'd feel bad not defaulting my trigger finger on a Diezel.

Old habits die hard. But hey, Friedman's got a growing circle of supporters and fans. His gear delivers if it's what you're looking for.

[joepete77]

Are these gonna be made in Cali or Michigan ?

 

[King Guitar]

Hey Guys,

These will be made in LA. I was with Dave and Rob when they were laying this out. Cool 50 watt version. Final pricing is still not set. As soon as I have more info I will post it up. I will be out there next week.

Damn. Well then I'm changing my guess and saying the Merkin will be $2,899.
