Its the older serial # system. I saw where Dave Friedman said an amp 4 numbers away from this one was probably a 2014. I’ll check it out tonight. Regardless of whatever caps are in it, sounds great.
It has a nicer clean channel, imo.
Still has the BE/HBE thing going on, just voiced differently. More vintage, but not as much as the Dirty Shirley. Not as many switchable options as the BE. Just the effects loop on/off. It's basically a softer, more rounded, thicker, less hard and compressed version of the 2014 BE I had. Dunno about the newer BE with updates.
Hey Ron, thanks!
It is a great amp, my fav Friedman.
I've been on the fence about it, and have turned down some decent offers. Figured I'll wait til someone meets the asking price.
Put in some old 12ax7s in the V1 and V2 spots a couple of days ago. Wow! May pull the ad down.
Yep, I have three Friedman's and two Cameron's and my SS100 gets the most play of all of them. Just an all around killer amp that excels in any mix or situation. GLWS
