Synergy Friedman BE-BB

Dave Friedman is the man behind some of the most impressive tones in rock 'n' roll and has been for over 25 years. Throughout that time, luminary players such as Jerry Cantrell and Eddie Van Halen have been relying on Friedman's amplifier modifications, repairs, and builds to keep them sounding at the top of their game. With that expertise in tow, Friedman moved into crafting his own line of top-shelf electric guitar amplifiers, instruments, and effects, and in doing so has built one of the most enviable roster of artists out there. Whether discussing the plexi-on-steroids tone of the BE-100, or the pedal-platform versatility of the Buxom Beauty, Friedman amps are undoubtedly taking over as the premier rock 'n' roll electric guitar amplifiers. Thanks to the Synergy Friedman BE-BB preamp module, those exact tones can be at your fingertips with a new level of convenience and affordability. Far from modeling or emulating, Dave Friedman himself designed this module, nailing every detail of the to-die-for tone and impressive touch sensitivity of both the Buxom Betty and the BE100. By utilizing a pair of 12AX7 preamp tubes to power the BE-BB, true tube tone will always be present, detailed, and hopelessly addictive. If you want to give your Synergy rig the legendary ‘cream-of-the-crop’ British roar of the BE100 series, while tapping into the finest cleans Friedman have to offer via the Buxom Betty, you'll want to grab a BE-BB preamp module. The Synergy BE-BB pre-amp features two channels. Each channel has a gain and volume knob and 3-band EQ. You'll also find 3-way bright switch and 2-way mid boost toggle on the BB side of the module for further crafting your perfect cleans.
