FRIEDMAN Runt 20 Combo
20 Watt full tube combo with two channels, Celestion Creamback loudspeaker and integrated load resistor, including foot switch
The Friedman Runt 20 Combo puts the typical Friedman sound into a compact combo amp, which is the ideal sound supplier for rehearsal rooms, stage and recording studio. Accordingly, the top's EL84-based power amp delivers up to 20 watts of power to the Celestion G12M Creamback loudspeaker, while the clean and overdrive channels cover a wide range of sounds from country, blues, hard rock and classic metal. In addition to the serial effects loop, the Friedman Runt 20 also features an integrated load resistor for silent operation without a connected speaker, and a balanced XLR output with speaker simulation.
The Friedman Runt 20 Combo's panel is recessed into the top and offers full control over the amplifier's clean and lead channels.
Friedman Runt with two channels
Based on three 12AX7 tubes, the Friedman Runt 20's preamplifier offers two channels for extensive sound possibilities. The clean channel, with its straightforward design, volume control and three-stage bright switch, offers a rich, appealing sound for sparkling arpeggios and detailed chords. The overdrive channel features a 3-band tone control as well as a switchable boost and therefore covers a wide gain spectrum between bluesy crunch, creamy overdrive and tight metal distortion. In addition, the Friedman Runt 20 has a presence control for adjusting the treble in the power amplifier and a serial effects loop.
EL84-poweramp and recording output
For the power amplifier of the Friedman Runt 20, Dave Friedman relies on two EL84 tubes from which the compact top section draws up to 20 watts of power. It delivers the power via a 12" Celestion G12M-65 Creamback loudspeaker, whose warm midrange and silky treble perfectly match the character of the amplifier. Accordingly, sufficient volume reserves are available for use in the rehearsal room or on smaller gigs. In addition to the loudspeaker connections for expansion speakers with 8 Ohm or 16 Ohm impedance, the Friedman Runt 20 also has an integrated load resistor that enables silent operation without a connected loudspeaker. The balanced XLR output delivers a first-class signal with loudspeaker simulation for direct feeding into the mixing console or audio interface.
On the underside of the Runt-20 chassis are the effects loop, the balanced XLR output and connections for footswitches and expansion speakers.
