  • The Friedman Dirty Shirley Mini has GREAT tones on tap in super light weight, compact package. Check out the big fat tones this amp delivers. NO EQs were put on anything in this recording.
    Not much "shred" here today. Just dig the tones and then buy this little killer amp!
    20 watts!!! This mini DS is straight ahead. the 3-way toggle switches from clean to dirty to really dirty! thats pretty much it. A great FX loop and very versatile.
    The usual chain: Shure SM57 into the MBox2 into Protools. No EQs anywhere, just Friedman DS mini straight in. Enjoy

    I actually bought this amp years ago because of this video. And it’s still in my amp arsenal and every bit as good as you made it sound here Doug. As I’ve stated many times your one of my favorite players and this video is a great showcase why. Incredible note choices and killer bursts of speed and technique but always musical and melodic. You RAWK HOMIE!!!

Thank you Doug for the obvious time you spend putting together these review videos. You do a fantastic job of showing the variety of sounds an amp or pedal can get. And do it in the context of a creative work of music. It is truly a joy to watch and listen to your video's.

    The amp is legit!!! It gives me everything I kinda wasn't getting out of Marshall's. Tight, focused, warm, with plenty dirt at a perfect band volume. Plug straight in and Rock out. I did try a couple of cabs. The open back with the 65w creamback was the sure winner. I couldn't and wouldn't opt for more watts but they are available for those who need more. But more comes with a price. And not so nice when a bar manager is complaining your too loud. I don't want to be that guy 😂.

    Great review! For those commenters wondering about the differences between this and the PT-20, I'd call this the more versatile amp by far. I owned a PT-20 before I bought my DS mini. They're both good but I found the PT-20 to be sort of a 1-trick high gain pony. It's compressed and pretty gainy sounding not matter what I did. I ended up selling that amp. I prefer the DS. But if heavier rock is your thing it might be worth trying the PT-20 also because, though a 1-trick pony, it's a pretty damn good trick.
