EXTENDED CUT! No Talk, All Rock: The Friedman JEL-50 - early access!
🕑 Added 2024-11-07 14:27:14 +0000 UTCEarly access, extended cut, ad-free, ALL the goodies for my most lovely and loyal supporters!!! Thanks for all you do!
You guys asked to hear more of that new Friedman Jake E Lee JEL-50 amp, and I wasn’t gonna let you go without. This video is nothing but playing, no talk, all RAWK!
I’ll take ya from the crystal cleans to the Plexi crunch (and more crunchier tones) on channel 1 before we head over to channel 2 for rock and BEYOND. It’s such a cool amp!!! If you’ve ever wanted an amp that is like a perfected Plexi and 800 in one amp, this is what you need… and as usual for a Friedman, the volume is extremely controllable!!! Bedroom tones sound GREAT with none of the thinness you usually get from running a tube amp at low volume, and believe me when I say it gets LOUD, too.
I also used a TON of different guitars from my collection, because why not???
See if you can name ALL the riffs! Cheers, and let me know any questions you have about the amp!

Which would you prefer overall! The 50W or the 20W?

LOVED the Kings X, but the icing is at the end. John Sykes wrote some balls out music that keeps getting better with age. Sounds incredible! So choppy, so phat! :)
Scott Lee
Hate to bug but which cab was VH and which one was BatM? Thank you! You've always been my favorite step-uncle

Slap a HM2 in there and you can get meth vibes
Ben Eller
Thanks man! Different cabinet selection on the OX! I think that was the Greenback cab.
Scott Lee
@Uncle Ben was there any difference in signal chain (aside from guitar) going from the VH1/2 riifs to BATM? Or was it all in the hands? This whole video ripped!

Great fun video. I could not name all of the riffs, but they were all killer and no filler. Is it just me or does this amp sound way better than the UX version ? The gain on this sounds more...realistic for lack of a better term. I even liked the clean tones better.
NYCM&AHole
Sweet tones, man. Would love to see that vs the ir J
Ben Eller

That was a fun video, I bet you enjoyed making that one! Songs I recognized: 18 and life Say it ain't so Jailbreak Lonely is the night Mr. Brownstone Carry on my wayward son You really got me Ain't talking about love I'm the one Bark at the moon Pornograffitii Round and round Party hard Suzi wants her all day ?? We die young A few others I recognized the riff but couldn't remember the song, Really should be going back to work now. Don't think my boss would accept my excuse that I was watching my favorite uncle shred🤔

Ha! The very first song I ever heard live in concert was Girlschool. Britny Fox was opening for Ratt back in the late 80s. I was 15 and just started playing guitar. Great video as always!!

Same here, that'd be great to know.
Ryan Mcleod
That ripped!

Pat Metheny vibes from an amp associated with Jake E Lee, really does not get any better
Tom Atkins Band
Really nice version of reminiscing by little river band. I might Hendrix that up a little more and try it in my band (my drummer will probably kill me)
Neal Pickle
Ben, do you have a past video where you talk about how you run the UA Ox into your DAW? Really curious how you get all the great sounding speaker cab sounds, as I guess you are using IR's. Ty!
Neal Pickle
The Satch and OG Skid Row riff during the clean section was super duper swell.
