Friedman Amps BE-50 Deluxe Head

25/50 Watts Selectable Power!

KILLER, Hot-Rod Modded-Marshall Tone Machine!

By combining the tonal pallet of the BE and HBE circuits, as well as the sparkling cleans of the Buxom Betty, the all-new BE-50 Deluxe amplifier head from Friedman Amps is by far the most flexible design yet. Thanks to a handful of Dave Friedman’s most requested mods, this 3-channel head is chock full of tone-shaping possibilities and power.

Friedman tube amps are the best of the best. With three channels of his most popular circuits and effortless tone sculpting, all while retaining unmatched touch-sensitive purity, Dave Friedman has proclaimed the BE-50 Deluxe 50-watt all-tube head, “The best amp I’ve ever made.” We agree with this statement. This is probably one of the MOST FUN TO PLAY amps we’ve ever had through. One of the rare cases where the tone of the amp exactly matches the tone you have in your head and the tone you are looking to achieve. 

 

BE and HBE Overdrive Channels

Housed in the BE-50 Deluxe, Friedman’s BE and HBE drive channels are industry standards for high-gain crunch, clarity, and nuance. And with independent volume and gain controls, as well as some of Friedman’s most popular amp modifications, you’ll be switching between these worlds of grit, on the fly.

• Footswitchable BE and HBE channels
• Independent Volume and Gain controls for each channel
• 3-position Voice Switch dictates the top-end response of the dirty channels
• Fat Switch adds low-end girth and warmth
• 3-way Gain Structure Switch determines the channels’ overall gain

 

Buxom Betty Clean Channel Tone

The clean channel of the Friedman BE-50 Deluxe is directly inspired by the chime, glassy top end, and full body of the Friedman Buxom Betty amplifier. Not only does it sing with massive headroom and detail, but it brings out the very best in your favorite pedals and effects as well.

• Opulent clean tones, inspired by the Friedman Buxom Betty
• 3-Band EQ to shape your clean tone
• 3-position Bright Switch tailors the sheen of your sound

 

Flexible Power Section

Thanks to an astoundingly flexible power section, the BE-50 Deluxe will be your go-to amp on any gig. From the front panel, you’re able to tune the amp’s overall character with a trio of variable controls. Turn the amp around and you’ll find a half-power switch as well as the most transparent effects loop in the business.

• Presence Knob attenuates high frequencies in the amp’s power section
• Thump adds or removes low-end rumble
• Response Control allows you to determine the amp’s feel
• Transparent series Effects Loop with Bypass Switch always maintains your core tone
• Full/Half Power toggle selects between 50-watt pentode operation and 25-watt triode mode
