Plex
A "verbatim sonic-twin" of Dave Friedman's own 1968 JMP Super Lead Plexi, the first model in the Friedman Vintage Collection.
About this amp
The Plex is Dave Friedman’s recreation of his own 1968 JMP Super Lead Plexi, the first entry in the Friedman Vintage Collection. Internal channel jumpering replicates the classic external-patch-cable blending technique, and a post-phase master volume control tames the amp’s non-master-volume heritage without sacrificing feel.
