Yes, I'm a Friedman Fanboy. I just had to have one of these and I'm not disappointed one bit. The Motor City pickups just kick ass, the setup on this guitar is great. Very comfortable guitar with a nice full neck shape. I ordered this from Wildwood Guitars last week and arrived today.
Here are some pictures

Congrats! Wildwood has the best service, just got my Wildwood Spec Smallbox from Steve S and just an awesome guy to do business with!

I've been eyeing the White Friedman HSS but I have spent way too much $$$ lately. :D
 
Congrats.

Who's making these? I can't imagine Dave is constructing them with everything else on his plate.
 
DUDE! Congrats! I want a black one too! I'm totally jealous!!!!
 
Congrats!

I'm sure it's an awesome axe, and Friedman amps are second to NONE on the planet. But I gotta stick with my Anderson guitars. Between the two of those and the Smallbox in the man cave, I've never been so satisfied in all of my 32 years of gear whoring. Very curious about the Friedman Dirty Shirley on its way to my local shop though. :rock:
 
THat JJ Amp is amazing! Congrats on the new guitar! Looks very nice!
 
Sounds great man, and I love my JJ!
Wondering if you could share amp settings?
Speakers I assume, v30's & greenies?

Word on the street is that it's Avishay Shabat making the Friedman guitars.

Yes, i assumed this much from what you mentioned before. Did they not specify which MCP's came with this model? (Detroiter, Afwayu, etc..)

Oh ok, gotcha. Did you happen to check their output on a multimeter or anything?
