Dave Friedman achieved legendary status as an amp tweaker to the stars, modding Marshalls and building switching systems for players like Eddie Van Halen, Richie Sambora, and Jerry Cantrell before launching his own amplifier company. When he turned that same obsessive attention to detail toward building guitars, the results were exactly what you’d expect — instruments that sound like hot-rodded vintage guitars with a little extra muscle, built using old-world handcrafting techniques alongside modern precision engineering. Incredible vibe, superior playability, and tone that means business.
