Friedman Jose 20 Series All-Tube 20-Watt Head Amplifier

Following the overwhelming success of the original Friedman JOSE 100, Dave Friedman brings the legendary Jose sound to the all-new JOSE 20 Series. The JOSE 20 Series delivers the unmistakable voice, feel, and touch response that made its 100-watt counterpart an instant classic - now in a smaller watt format ideal for play at home in the studio, on stage, or anywhere exceptional tube tone is required.

Developed by Dave Friedman in close collaboration with Jose Arredondo’s daughter, Marisol Arredondo, the JOSE 20 Series faithfully translates one of the most influential amplifier voices in rock history into a modern production amplifier. Rather than simply recreating Jose Arredondo’s legendary amplifier modifications, Dave set out to capture the essence of Jose’s work - its feel, dynamics, harmonic complexity, and unmistakable voice and faithfully translate it into the JOSE 20 Series.

Handcrafted in Los Angeles using premium components and custom-made transformers, every JOSE 20 is built to Dave Friedman’s uncompromising standards.
