Get a Boutique Blend of Classic American and British Amp tones

The 50-watt Friedman Buxom Betty is what guitar amp fantasies are made of — a gorgeous, hand-wired single-channel amp that delivers the dynamic shimmer of American vintage tube combos as well as the comely roar of classic British stacks. Developed by Brainworx, the Friedman Buxom Betty Amplifier plug-in masterfully emulates this 50-watt, dual EL34 jaw dropper.

What They Say

The UAD Buxom Betty amp plug-in sounds just like the real thing.

Dave Friedman

Friedman Amplification

A lot of amp plug-ins seem to smear the image slightly and not be as present in the final mix. The Friedman Amplifier plug-ins sound fat and keeps its presence.

Jeff Balding

Taylor Swift, The Eagles, Florida Georgia Line

The Friedman Amplifiers Collection is one of the best sounding rock amp simulators I have heard. Using it with the Distortion essentials bundle is a match made in heaven.

    After one week of trying most the virtual uad amplifiers, many combination, with/without pedals, real tube preamp, Chanel strip etc...

    This one sound stunning, it has a real pawn

    Yet...it still missing the warmness of a true Amp

    Super useful and great sounding

    Useful as a cab sim that runs on Unison, but also great sounding amp on its own.

    I used it paired with a real fender amp and the result made my stop micking my amp!
