FRIEDMAN RUNT-50 - 50-WATT TUBE HEAD

Take what's special about the Friedman Runt-20, add a fourth 12AX7 in the preamp section, power it with two mighty EL-34 output tubes, and you've got a guitar amp with the grunt to rock the big stages. Employing custom transformers,a purist signal path, and one Celestion G12M-65 Creamback speaker, the Runt-50 combo serves up the tight bottom end and midrange punch you tend to hear in much higher-wattage amps.

Channel one of this versatile beast takes you from shimmery cleans to vintage American grit, while the second channel harkens the Brit-voiced chunk of Friedman's BE-100, deploying everything from classic rock overdrive to tonal Armageddon that'll strip the paint off club walls.

Through the Runt-50, your chords are harmonically rich and detailed; your lead lines soar and resonate. And it all cleans up beautifully with a pinky twist of your guitar's volume knob. Friedman's digital cab emulation and series effects loop further enhance the remarkable utility of this amp.
