The Friedman Box Head is a hand-wired 50-watt EL34 all-tube guitar amplifier head from Friedman Amplification, the Los Angeles boutique amp company founded by Dave Friedman.

A professional-grade hand-wired Friedman head for players who want the Friedman boutique quality and the tighter, more aggressive EL34 character.
The Friedman Plex Vintage Series is a hand-wired all-tube vintage-specification Plexi Marshall recreation from Friedman Amplification, built to premium standards with vintage-specification components.
