Class G amplifier that's anything but digital
At the heart of the ASC-10 is an analog 500-watt bi-amp Class G power amplifier. This amp design, proprietary to Friedman Amplification, delivers rich, full tone and a wide frequency response. This allows the ASC-10 to not only be used as a guitar stage monitor, but it's also suited for backline, or even as your main PA speaker — it even includes a pole-mounting cup for such applications. And the 500-watt power rating should be enough for almost any situation where you need it to be heard.
Traditional cabinet shape for onstage convenience
Though the ASC-10 can be used in a myriad of ways, its traditional cabinet shape makes it as easy to integrate into your rig as any other amplifier. Place your amp modeler or profiler on top, and it basically looks like any other modeling rig. And its ability to switch between guitar and PA duties makes the ASC-10 one of the most flexible stage solutions we've seen at Sweetwater.
Friedman quality
The name Friedman Amplification is synonymous with high-quality electric guitar products. Dave Friedman has been building and modding gear for some of the most respected names in electric guitar for years.
