The SYN-20IR is the world’s most flexible, convenient, and tonally versatile all-tube amplifier head. The amp’s built-in vintage American-style clean channel coupled two additional channels from your favorite Synergy preamp module, makes the SYN-20IR a three-channel tonal beast ideal for every player, every style, and every situation.
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.

CATHODE SELECT SWITCH:
This three-position switch allows you to configure the input tube bass response to match the original circuit of the selected module. This will affect the feel and tightness. Each amp designer has a specific combination of components that make up their input tube circuit. We have selected the three most popular combinations which you can access with this switch. You can experiment and try any of the positions to see what you prefer.
