Friedman IR-X Dual Tube Preamp

The Friedman IR-X, equipped with two 12AX7 tubes, delivers the harmonic richness and dynamic range one would expect from a true Friedman amplifier, making it the optimal solution for guitarists in search of a high-quality preamp that can fit into a pedalboard.

However, the Friedman IR-X 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-X boasts two independent channels that can be accessed via footswitch. The first channel provides British tones, ranging from bright cleans to Plexi-style crunch. The second channel delivers the classic Friedman high-gain sound. It is important to emphasize that the Friedman IR-X is not a simulator; it is a tube-based product.

Completing this wonderful device is the IR section (12 factory presets available), which can be expanded with third-party IRs using the editing software.
