Introducing the Synergy Amps Friedman HBE Preamp Module, a testament to high-end sound engineering. Crafted by the legendary Dave Friedman, this preamp module is your ticket to the grandeur of rock 'n' roll tones. The HBE Preamp Module draws its inspiration from the iconic Friedman BE-100 amplifier, providing you with an amplified experience that echoes the same robust power and nuanced character.

With the Synergy Friedman HBE preamp module, you get to experience the precise tone and impressive touch sensitivity of an HBE-boosted BE-100. Thanks to the dual channels powered by a pair of 12AX7 preamp tubes, you can easily switch between a high-gain rhythm tone and a boosted lead sound. The result is a tone that's present, aggressive, and addictively gratifying.

This module doesn't just emulate or model; it's a real deal designed by Dave Friedman himself. The Friedman HBE module also features a Cathode Select Switch, allowing you to configure the input tube bass response to match the original circuit of your preferred module. This unique feature ensures optimal feel and tightness, allowing you to truly tailor your sound.
