I think it literally is a crime people don't know. From what I understand (happy to be corrected) Ray knowingly infected people with HIV and through legal action one or some of them prevented the Badlands albums from being re-released. A crying shame as I got the first Badlands album when it came out and it was an incredible record. A super-group playing super-songs.
Praying for a speedy recovery… to a huge hero and inspiration… from a hugely inspired fan. Love ya Jake!!! Get well soon!! Thanks Anderton’s for the great review!
I ordered mine the night it came out just a couple of hours before Jake was shot. I couldn't believe the news when I woke up. Wishing my favourite guitar player in the history of the world a very speedy and full recovery xx
Prayers for a full recovery for Jake E. Lee. Master Guitarist Jake needs to get on the road soon. The world is better when Jake plays. This preamp is stellar. Plug into the PA and you have a great tone. I like the preset with Jake’s tone. It is full on 1980s.
Also, a great product for those of us with multiple amps and maybe we don't want to take up more room with another amp or head, so we plug this into the effects loop and we've got a new amp tone.
…if I didn’t already have a few gain-y tube amps that I love, I’d buy one of these friedman preamps. each time I’m impressed with how nice they sound, and I love the layout of the pedals.
This sounds more raw than the other Friedman amps and modules... I like it. I hope Friedman and the boutique amps collective bring out a Synergy module for the Jake E. Lee or Phil X amp.
Not really what it was designed for. It's not a "pedal", it's an actual preamp. If using with an actual amp, it is voiced to work best plugged into the effects loop return, bypassing your amps preamp.
@JSaltyfabricator Right.... that's what I was thinking as well. I just heard that nice overdrive and thought it could make a rad boost over another mild distotion
How can I evaluate this pedals range of sounds if you also use it with other pedals to alter its sound quality and performance? Hearing the pedal alone would be a better choice for me to decide if it’s for me and what I COULD use it with…wish you would just play through the pedal and let me decide….
So we are not hearing just this pedal? But with other pedals added? How can this pedal be evaluated properly if not on its own without any additional effects?
Out on the streets, I'm stalking the night I can hear my heavy breathing Paid for the kill, but it doesn't seem right Something there I can believe in Voices are calling from inside my head I can hear them, I can hear them Vanishing memories of things that were said They can't try to hurt me now..... These are gonna sell of the shelves like hotcakes
I’m getting the sense from the video reviews so far that this release is “meh” not very exciting after digging into it. I was hoping for, at least, a mind blowing channel 2 sound with the new TS boost. It sounds great, however, if the unit is not providing any real large difference from the X and D then why pay $100 bucks more for the symbol? There needs to be a proper demo of all three at the same time to help everyone out with their choice like if you put a pedal in front of the D will it get the J gain with TS boost sound? Don’t forget the Green model (a Mick Mars Dr. Feelgood Jose modded model?) that was in the “I spy” pic with Neilsen and Leon Todd in it. I’m just not feeling it so far.
WTF. Random shooting? I’m an American and I’m not trying to make a guitar channel into anything political, but if this isn’t a reason to at least ponder why gun violence is so prevalent in my country and whether gun control laws might be worth considering (or at least having a conversation about), I don’t know what is. Anyway, thanks for the review guys and get well soon, Jake!
As a gun owner and toter, I understand your concern. But unfortunately, the gun laws only keep the guns out of legal citizens hands. You can build a gun with a lathe in your garage. Make handguns and assault rifles illegal, that illegal business will boom. Criminals will always get the guns to do the crimes. I'm not sure what the answers are.
When you're out at night walking around at 230 in the morning in Las Vegas, or anywhere for that matter, you are asking for something bad to happen. You are confusing gun violence with just plain violence. People are violent. We are not angels. We are F'd up as a species and that will not be changing anytime soon.
@@brrblack497 imagine if people and politicians had taken gun control seriously 30 or 40 years ago. Guns wouldn't be more prevalent than cigarettes and the gun mentality wouldn't exist. The option to solve every problem with a gun wouldn't exist. The anti gun mentality is not wrong...just too late. The people that couldn't see into the future have cost us dearly.
Why should I believe anything you guys say? You demoed the UAFX Lion and Pete gushed on and on about how good it was- a few months later you had it in a shootout with other pedals and here's what Pete had to say about it- "It sounds broken, I don't like that." So apparently, to get what you guys really think of a pedal- it has to not be the focus of the video. If it's the reason for the video, the main focus of it- you guys are going to say it's awesome and you love it- even if in reality you think "It sounds broken". I get it, you have to have good relationships with your vendors and can't afford to do a video that insults their product, but then why should I turn to you for reviews? Your hands are tied, I need someone who has no relationship with UAFX or Freidman or any of them- no reason to kiss their arse. Bedsides, imo the Lion sounds great so- apparently me and Pete have different tastes anyway.
This is so limited honestly, I would just want a modelling or capture unit at this point. They let you load your own IRs anyway and even if this has tubes in it, it’s still not going to be pushing air like you would through a cab unless hooked up that way (which you could just do with a modellor anyway). The fact the unit can’t remember settings blows my mind. You’re basically stuck with two channels that are set.
Can you please, for the love of god, stop talking about Donald Trump on these videos? I so do not tune into a guitar TH-cam channel to hear a British guy and Danish guy chime in on American politics.
All of us at Andertons are heartbroken at the recent news regarding Jake E. Lee's shooting. We wish him a speedy recovery!
He was shot in the dark...
Wishing a speedy recovery to Jake! We are looking forward to him being able to celebrate this amazing release!
All love and prayers for the legend Jake. He's such a great player, funny guy, and one of my biggest inspirations.
Watching Jake on VHS with Ozzy made me pick up my first guitar!!! 30 years ago!! Legend.
Get well soon Jake E Lee!
Get well soon Jake 🤞
Love Jake. The Badlands albums are so massively under-valued. It’s a crime that more people don’t know them. Incredible band.
I agree! I own all of them on CD! Great albums
100%. Been listening to Dusk all week…again!

Another awesome demo and another great Friedman IR amp-pedal for my collection! Sounds killer! 🤘🎩
Think you get Jake on asap after he’s recovered. My favourite guitar player along side mr Lynch.
Sounds glorious, it's gonna sell well.
One of the better pedal/amps I have heard good job Friedman!

Got to see Jake on the Ozzy tour when Metallica were opening, Way back, lol. Speedy recovery dude! Pete and Captain doing a nice review as usual!
the timing of this release and his shooting is surreal. Get well soon Jake.
The sincerity behind "Oh my god... if you don't like and subscribe there may never be a democracy agai-"😂😂🤣🤣
As soon as that Les Paul got plugged in… chefs kiss!
Fantastic playing from Pete on Channel 2. Dat Solo 🤘🏼
Also, a great product for those of us with multiple amps and maybe we don't want to take up more room with another amp or head, so we plug this into the effects loop and we've got a new amp tone.
Get well Jake E Lee.
I'd love to hear a comparison of these Friedmans into a clean amp (like the Hi Watt you were playing with the other day)
jake is a legend- one of the GREATS.
Where was Sharon when it went down?
For legal purposes, absolutely not waiting for confirmation that she got what she paid for.
…if I didn’t already have a few gain-y tube amps that I love, I’d buy one of these friedman preamps. each time I’m impressed with how nice they sound, and I love the layout of the pedals.

Let's hope for a quick recovery for Jake E Lee.
Man that strat is CRISPY
I was about to pull the trigger for a Tsakalis mothership but these friedman IR series caused an option paralysis I can barely write the comment .
Did some Prince of Darkness turn the lights off?
Jake will soon be stronger than ever!
yo that HSS strat is a killer spec with the metalish pickguard and that dark red.
Dang I wish someone would demo this into an effects return of a tube amp into a real speaker!!!
this sounds sooo good. wow.
How does the j compare to the d for low gain blues / jazz / funk?
Awesome I have the Friedman JEL 20 Watt's amplifier.
Would you still buy this IR? I would've not bought the JEL 20, just gotten this, if I could do it over again.
Are you guys gonna check out the piano verb by fender?? 👀
I wonder how it would be in front of the amp. Pushing a tube amp with it as a boost seems like it would be amazing
Just get a tube driven boost for that use case and save yourself some cash
Then it would just be a Friedman guitar amp! 😊
Not really what it was designed for. It's not a "pedal", it's an actual preamp. If using with an actual amp, it is voiced to work best plugged into the effects loop return, bypassing your amps preamp.
@JSaltyfabricator Right.... that's what I was thinking as well. I just heard that nice overdrive and thought it could make a rad boost over another mild distotion
With the new firmware shaving latency it should "feel" better like a real amp as long as your signal chain supports such feelings.
To me it seems like the clean channel is cleaner than the IR-D.
I love it, just wish it had 3 channels. I dream of an ADA MP-1 like that pedal.
How can I evaluate this pedals range of sounds if you also use it with other pedals to alter its sound quality and performance? Hearing the pedal alone would be a better choice for me to decide if it’s for me and what I COULD use it with…wish you would just play through the pedal and let me decide….
The golden girls cast was between 51-60 years old when the show started. And the show ran for 7 years I believe.
So we are not hearing just this pedal? But with other pedals added? How can this pedal be evaluated properly if not on its own without any additional effects?
This screams for a new blindfold challenge - sorry pete, knowing it's a hard job! 🤘🎸
UltimateGuitar says Jake is expected to make a full recovery. 👍
Jake needs us to buy this pedal to pay for hospital ❤🎉🎉🎉
Sadly, that is probably true
The red on that Strat, holy shit...
I wish Jake a speedy recovery.😿
Get well soon❤
Are they "starved plate" valves
Pete was all in with the parachute pants
Out on the streets, I'm stalking the night
I can hear my heavy breathing
Paid for the kill, but it doesn't seem right
Something there I can believe in
Voices are calling from inside my head
I can hear them, I can hear them
Vanishing memories of things that were said
They can't try to hurt me now..... These are gonna sell of the shelves like hotcakes

I agree. I think the IR-X sounds absolutely killer, even for hair metal tones.
Heal well Jake.
Love to Jakey
What a coinkydink! Dude has gear dropping the exact time crazy people want to ‼️him?
Check out pete thorn,michael Neilson or tone wars. To hear what this thing can really do
Bummed you didn't grab that tele :(
love shootout video's!
there should be one for the butterslax
Jake 💔
Get well soon ❤️🩹 buddy
Great Vid
Jake hope you're OK dude!
If I had that, I'd be in the dark as well? I dont have a computer, only a phone, and i prefer to use a real amp!
You could use it in the effects loop return of your amp, using it as a preamp and it would sound awesome. And it's got a headphone out.
What! What happened to Jake?
Posted 8 sec ago 😂never were so fast
very expensive pedal like a tube amp combo
Speedy recovery Jake e Lee , by the latest news he will make a full recovery ❤️🩹 x
seems rather cheeky to not run this thru a set of green or creambacks...Cheers!
Oh yay. ANOTHER Marshall preamp from Friedman. To be fair, this one seems to be the most versatile out of all of them, but man. I'm getting bored.
Heroes del Silencio logo? if you know you know
bolo...............never walk around at night in the new world we live in now............
What happened to Jake?????
He was shot in the dark!
😁
Like and subscribe for Pete sake.
Not impressed…how much$ for what seems like just an overdrive of average performance
Lee doesn't look a year over 72
Democracy joke hit like a train full of bricks. Well played by our friends across the pond.
I didn't know who he was until i googled him
That's unfortunate
Almost a million followers and yet they can't pay their power bill. Viewers want to know Lee, where is the money going?
WTF. Random shooting? I’m an American and I’m not trying to make a guitar channel into anything political, but if this isn’t a reason to at least ponder why gun violence is so prevalent in my country and whether gun control laws might be worth considering (or at least having a conversation about), I don’t know what is.
Anyway, thanks for the review guys and get well soon, Jake!
The fact that trying to reduce the amount of people/children getting shot counts as a political issue in the US is the most insane part.
As a gun owner and toter, I understand your concern. But unfortunately, the gun laws only keep the guns out of legal citizens hands.
You can build a gun with a lathe in your garage. Make handguns and assault rifles illegal, that illegal business will boom. Criminals will always get the guns to do the crimes. I'm not sure what the answers are.

It's obnoxious hearing Lee in my left ear constantly and thinking the balance is off. Mix the vocals to center, jesus...
I wish our country really dealt with guns like your country has.
But my fragile masculinity and Constitution that only protects Congress and the President won't allow it 😢 so sad
The good news is we all get to star in minor roles as Meat Spray or Debris Ball Victim though so at least there's that
@$400 /$500 way too much..

clean sounds are horrible
This is so limited honestly, I would just want a modelling or capture unit at this point.

Is this the closest to the sound of a silver jubilee do you think?
At least we're finally giving Jake a shot.
Oh...wait...
