Friedman JOSE-20 Combo

FRIEDMAN JOSE-20 COMBO

Capture the legendary, hot-rodded British high-gain sound of the iconic Friedman JOSE 100 in a versatile, compact 20-watt format. Developed by Dave Friedman in close collaboration with Marisol Arredondo (daughter of legendary amp modifier Jose Arredondo), the JOSE 20 Series delivers the unmistakable voice, harmonic complexity, and touch-sensitive response that defined generations of rock history—ideal for the studio, stage, or home.

Whether you choose the grab-and-go 1×12 Jose 20 Combo or the flexible JOSE 20 Head, you get uncompromised, handcrafted Los Angeles tube tone designed for modern players.

FEATURES:

- Internally Bridged : Volume I & II Blends bright and normal inputs for a fuller, more complex voice—replicating the classic two-channel patch technique used on vintage amps.

- Plexi/Drive Switch : Introduces a true additional gain stage for increased saturation, punch, and flexibility across gain structures.

- 3-Position Gain Style Switch : Revoices the circuit by repositioning the master volume and introducing diode clipping for added edge and modern response
