Friedman introduces a floor-type 2-channel tube preamp!

This two-channel preamplifier boasts superior sound quality, featuring real tubes (two 12AX7 tubes), reminiscent of the company's BE-100.
By connecting it to the return jack of your amplifier's "send and return" terminal, it delivers a volume-heavy sound that sets it apart from other pedal preamps on the market.

Furthermore, the line-out sound quality is outstanding, giving the monitor amp the presence of a real tube combo amp.
It also features a wide variety of IR (Instrument Identifier) ​​options. Combined with the speaker model selection, it offers not only tube distortion but also clean and crunch settings, leaving no room for compromise.
Experience the highest level of guitar sound in the modern era, as presented by renowned amplifier builder Dave Friedman.
