Friedman IR-J Jake E Lee Signature Dual Tube Preamp

The Friedman IR-J Jake E. Lee Signature Dual Tube Preamp, equipped with two 12AX7 tubes, produces the harmonic richness and dynamic range one would expect from a true Friedman amplifier, making it the perfect solution for guitarists in search of a high-quality preamp that fits on a pedalboard.

However, the Friedman IR-J is not just a preamp; it also features low-latency IR, an ultra-transparent effects loop, USB MIDI for DAW integration, and a headphone output.

The Friedman IR-J comes with two independent channels that can be recalled via footswitch, based on Friedman’s legendary JEL-100 and JEL-20 designs, which in turn are inspired by the ‘800/PLEXI circuits modified by Dave. It is important to emphasize that the Friedman IR-J is not a simulator: it is a tube product.

Completing this wonderful product is the IR section (18 factory presets available), which can be expanded with third-party IRs using the editing software.
