Get both, problem solved, rock on!
I really do think you do some of the best review videos on YT. No blabbering about this and that. Just how the gear sounds. Different adjustments and what matters. Another great video. Thank you. I like both pedals. They each have there own unique tone. I would use both. It just matters where each would be the best fit for the tone I was wanting.
Great video mate. Know what we want to hear is an art in itself. Thanks. New Zealand
Great Demo Sir. Greetings from the Philippines ❤️
Thank you Dave Friedman BE OD & Dirty Shirly 💫
I watched this with my eyes closed to get unbiased reactions and then checked which was which. The one that made me think "That's nice, that'd be sweet for a less aggressive track" was the SLO, and the one that made me think "Holy shit, it's war!" was the BE-OD
I have a BE-OD Pedal and love it. Period. However, the Soldano offers a different flavor that's neither "better/worse". it all depends on what you're in the mood for at the time. Why limit yourself? :)
Somebody mentioned Friedman for rhythm and Soldano for lead... That sounds pretty much what I got on my side... I had both and the way I used Friedman was to turn the internal gain trim pot to zero (you still have a tons of gain on tap) and blast the volume, with up to 50% on the gain pot (you really don't need more even for soloing) - this is where those fizzy mid frequencies become somewhat tolerable. Of course, it depends on the rest of the setup as well - Les Paul here with BK Black Dog in the bridge and SD '59 in the neck, 2x12' Celestion Vintage pushed by modded Egnater Rebel 20 MkI. In this "surrounding" Soldano does sound more tamed and manageable, while Friedman, in my opinion, does require perhaps a "specific thing" in order to be close to the amp. Sure, same goes for Soldano but as someone said here, Soldano is more "user friendly" and less "finicky", it blends better into various surroundings and setups. That is true. Disclaimer: both pedals were loaned, I never had any but I am thinking on getting the Friedman as I recently bought the Friedman Smallbox and it works great. Excellent demo, proper sound, very good presentation! My utmost respect!
I've been comparing these two on the high gain setting with the bogner Burnley v2 (demo on this same channel). The friedman sounds too compressed and fizzy. The soldano is more midrangey and aggressive, but open. And the bogner sounds a bit rounder and fuller since it has that transformer. I am looking for a replacement for my mxr prime distortion for a medium to high gain sound, to be boosted with a tubescreamer. Any other suggestions than these 3 that I should look into?

Revv G4 boosted with a boss SD1 works well through the clean channel of my tube amp for high gain crispiness.
Thank you , nice video . Sol has more mid. Be od is more transparent . Love them both.
Having watched a few vids on these pedals, I'm thinking the BE-OD works best with a EL34 power section and the SLO with a 6L6 power section.

I can attest to this and can confirm it does. Or if you really want a better explanation. The Friedman paired with a Marshall style circuit and the Soldano with a fender style circuit is the best option. Considering that Friedman uses Marshall topology along with Soldano using Fenders. I have a Suhr Badger 18 and 30. They work flawlessly with my Friedman BE OD deluxe. And a Suhr Bella which takes the Soldano SLO beautifully.
Sounds to me like either would do the trick, so similar!
I love Soldano amps, but the Friedman sounded much richer and fuller in this comparison. The Soldano sounded more focused in the higher frequencies. However, this might be just in the pedal versions. When comparing the Synergy preamps for these two, you can dial each in a little more with the added options they give you.

The deep switch in off on the SLO.
Got two pedals. The BE OD don’t have mids !!( Why mister Friedman ?)
Friedman sounds playable in all genres
❤fantastic video, I like both, Soldano is better in some kind of chords and Friedman in others. I have already a Friedman, now I wanna buy a Soldano
ANY OF THEM , SOUND EXPECTACULAR IN YOUR HANDS AS USUALLY, THANKS FOR YOUR WORK. FROM TMAPICO - MSDERO TAMAULIPAS MEXICO, ATLANTIC COAST............
I bought the soldano, great pedal, very quiet as well,
friedman for rythm and soldano for lead?
Maybe Dirty Shirley would have been a pedal closer choice
Friedman sounds very good
SLO all the way. More amp like with a bit more warmth and sag. Just sayin
Friedman sempre!
I would rather the Soldano. BE sounded too scooped for my taste.

And there's no mid control, so it will always sound scooped.
I’m glad I saw this video. Some time back I bought the Friedman pedal and it sounded nothing like this, it was pretty lame. So…this soldano pedal must be a KZread misconception.

Hey, I had one as well and thought the same. Adjusting the dip switch with the back off made a massive difference
Friedman sounds bigger, a lot of muscle!
Love the Friedman and got the Deluxe. Soldano was never my thing, even 30 years in. No prob, I'd go Bogner Überschall if I want something else. Or channel 3 on the ENGL invader. Ah. Good times.

IMO the Bogner Ubershall is a really mediocre pedal. I own it as well as Revv G4 and Friedman BE-OD and it sounds nothing close
Fantastic advicing of BE OD👍👍👍
Soldano way more Open and less compresed
Soldi sounds beezy
Bose headphones says Soldano is a bit brighter! Soldano heavy overdriven has a mid boost tone to it.

I vote Friedman

The Friedman pedal is noisy as fuck, returned it immediately
