Early Access! Checking out the Friedman Jake E Lee IR-J!

Cause why not?!?!

I'm putting the regular, ad-laiden, and shorter cut up for the public tomorrow, but why make you all wait?! This Bad Larry just hit the market, and y'all need to know about it! I know you all like things that are nice (as do i), so you probably need to be checking this out.

I know there's a lot of you all that want to record great rock and metal sounds at home but either:

A: don't want the hassle and volume of setting up a cab and mics and all that mess

B: don't want to go the digital route with plugins or modelers

This is SUCH a great solution. It's tube-powered, it's got an FX loop for your favorite pedals, and you can run it straight into your interface. It couldn't be much easier!!!

Snag the download of that tune and help me name the dang thing hahaha

Early Access! Checking out the Friedman Jake E Lee IR-J!

I have a JCM 800 studio 20 water. Could I still use this as an input somehow or would that sort of defeat the purpose?

Dildo mashers from space. (Name of the track)

Purchased one because I love Jake and because of this video. It just showed up this morning. OMG! Brilliant piece of work. Through an FRFR, it is perfect. Just for a laugh I ran it through the FX return of an old 90s Fender Ultimate Chorus to see what it sounded like….. it may become my go to rig. It sounded incredible. The clean channel with the pristine chorus of that amp was a thing of beauty. I was considering a JEL 20 but this will probably end the want/need for that amp after I try it through a power amp pedal and a 1x12 cab. I still need to try it through headphones and into an interface to see how it works for practice, late night, and recording situations. Either way I am in love with this little box and it is going to become a mainstay of my setup.

Andrew Smith

I love how easy you make it look to play all that

Tim Coltey

Amazing Ben!!! Can I buy this one since it’s pre uncle loved?

Todd Staege

Uncle Ben...WTF!? That intro bit is sensational...tabs.. please.. now!

@Jake: Swear you will carry on until you and RDC finally make it to Germany! Had tickets for Munich, but the tour got called off. Bummer! Been Waiting to see you again since the Bark at the Moon Tour!!! Seriously, man, as underrated as you are, I think you probably don't know what an iconic guy you are for a lot of people. And not just because of your second to none guitar playing, but also for your straight talking, no bullshit attitude. Wish you all the best and a complete recovery. Cheers, Holger from lower Bavaria

I think Jake does not get enough love for how great the transition was from Randy. His work with Ozzy is fantastic. I am not so sure anyone in "The Pantheon" could have done it any better. I am so glad he is ok after a ridiculous and terrifying random act of violence. Ben, it would be a kindness if you provided tab for the clean section from minute 20 to 21... Love the opening track!

Glenn

Hi from France dear Ben. Great "Jake in the Box" song demo ! 😉 Awesome Playing as usual ! Keep safe and Keep it up, U Rock dear Ben ! Best Regards Luc, France

Luc GERARD

Haha. The cure.

Evan kelsay

Great stuff, man. Question: does the IR-J have enough preamp tube power to run the Ox Box?

American Gwyn

Unbelievable tones! Great stuff, Ben!

Tim Radle

GOD DAMN Uncle Ben that track just gave the whole world an erection Whats that chord progression you're playing in Clean at around 20:10? It sounds really familiar but I can't place it

Jake Raymor

I saw Courtney Cox (Iron Maidens, Burning Witches) demo this on FB, and then you posted this. I’m sold. Bought one this morning. Hope you have a speedy recovery Jake! Glad you are still with us!

Matthew Moseley

Many prayers for a quick recovery for Jake! Great review of this pedal. Thanks

Aldo Ferrari

Just ordered one, can't wait to hear it using my super sheriff for the power section!

Dan

Jake survived a literal Shot in the Dark. He is a beast - I pray for his full recovery

John

Wishing Jake E Lee a speedy recovery!

Reckless96

"Can't Shoot Me Down" (too soon?)

Mark Luntzel

Hopefully you’re dropping those tabs for this song sometime soon ;) or at least a few licks from it? 😊

Nicole Frymier

Definitely asking Santa for this somabeech… sounds great, especially w/ the boost!

Shahar Bar

My first concert was Ozzy with Jake. 86. What a force. I was heartbroken when I heard . Just walking his fkn dog! Glad he's still with us 🙏

Devon Ward

Ben I neglected to tell my wife I love her this morning-I won’t make the same mistake with you-love you Ben!!!!!!! Ty!!!

Deep Goswami

Sounds amazing. Loved the opening tune.

Robert Agaciewski

Song title: Nothing But Trouble with Jake. ;-) The 'good trouble' that is.

Neal Pickle

Dunno! I would assume it’s the “signature model” tax.

Ben Eller

High praise, I’ll take it!

Ben Eller

Got a mix between Jake E Lee and John Sykes on that opening track!

Justin Shipley

Any idea why this one is $100 more than the IR-D and IR-X? I thought they were pretty much functionally equivalent. To my ears, it sounds better, how do you feel?

Shahar Bar

....and prayers for full recovery for Jake!!!

Chris Nicol

name the track "Bark at the Neighbors"

Chris Nicol

Song title: Walking the dog? Of course total well wishes for an amazing recovery!!
