FRIEDMAN DIRTY SHIRLEY MINI 20W

1 year old - mint condition.

Yes, it's the model with the 3 stage gain switch.

Undoubtedly, the 'best in class' and best 'Marshall' sound, but more importantly it's incredibly usable in the real world and very controllable at home. 

At the same time it can be very loud and easily enough in a big hall or club and has a much higher than expected clean headroom on the lowest gain stage.  I have played it through 2 x 12 and it sounds huge.

It's a very warm, thick sound (more than expected and I.M.O. at its very best with a Strat or Tele or Gretsch when it's just   perfect for fattening the tone and blunting the 'ice-pick' but it screams if you use a treble booster with Humbuckers - old school style.

£925

    So much want. 

    [weeps and looks away]

    That Doug R demo is great; talent and whimsy in equal measure. 

    Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder


    My trading feedback  - I'm a good egg  ;)

    Yeah, I am more country biased but he is my favourite Rock Player of the last couple of years - it was that video that sold me on the amp but I just don't use it enough

    Give a man a fire and he's warm for the day. But set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life
