Friedman T-7020 Head

Have been in the market for a smaller head for more AC/DC classic style tones. I was under the impression Friedmans were like modified Marshalls but to my ears they don't sound like Marshalls at all. Lovely chimey clean sound but I didn't like the standard overdrive channel at all. It was harsh and got harsher as the volume went up. I just couldn't dial it out without making the amp sound wooly. The sat switch does what it says and gives the amp a more modern sound but you take quite a volume hit when using this feature.
Overall for the money I was disappointed, it was an OK amp but nothing great when you consider the price tag. I've since acquired a 20W Marshall Plexi and that thing is a fire breathing monster and considerably less than half the price of the Friedman. I've played a number of 20W heads, the Marshall and PRS amps just seem much louder compared to the Friedman. That's not a big thing but by the time you add the sat switch you could easily run out of juice when playing live.
