That does sound glorious doesn't it... I've not found one that touches that tone or the tone out of the PhilX head either.
That said, one of the better ones I've heard on Rig Exchange is called BE100 SAT1 DEMO by Craig Sorrenti.

Hello Geraldo,
Have you checked out Tim Owens' ( @timowens ) amazing Friedman BE-100 profiling sessions. The thread is called "Have Amp, Will Profile", and is located here:
Have amps, will profile the BE100: Lets make some profiles...
I personally recommend Sessions #27, #53 and #54. If you can't find some amazing Friedman BE-100 tones in here, then, well, I don't know what to say.
Cheers,
John
EDIT: Woops, never mind, Geraldo. I just looked through a few of the HAWP pages, and I see you are already subscribed and have posted in that thread. Have you not found something that fits your needs? Another great Friedman BE-100 profile is found in Michael Britt's Profile Pack #3, and is his "Fried A-Hole" profile(s). Yes, I realize these are obviously not exactly the Steve Stevens Friedman model, but the SS is a direct descendant of the BE-100, and is you like the SS you are going to like the BE-100, and vice versa, IMHO.
I haven't been able to get that chunky SS tone yet... I'd love someone to profile a SS Friedman for that tone.
Let me know if you get close to this, Geraldo!

As much as I agree that the HAWP profiles @timowens posted are really awesome (because they are), they really don't sound anything like the tone in that video.
thank you for your comments, i know all of em, and while they are quite good, they lack this little something. i personally would even rate the
free ones of Tim a little bit higher than those of Michael. Armin's Friedman is good, but it is not the BE or the SS.
The best i know STILL is the free one of Thomas Dill. The search continues ...
I had the chance to play all Friedmans in Ibbenbüren and still after eleven months am blown away.
I just watched the video, and there is something about the SS Friedman I have not heard from any profile. Close but no cigar
That really interesting @Geraldo7 because Dill's Freidman HBE #2 is my 2nd favorite.
The one from Craig Sorrenti is much brighter. I use the EQ as-profiled but I gain it up to 7.0 (stock is 5.3).

Wow, just wow. Now THAT sounds promising! I swear i'll check this one out ASAP: thx!

TAF has a pack of friedman ss profiles..
i have the BE and DS from andi, close - but no cigar
Maybe the Friedman sound is too different from the so-called base amp models the Kemper uses so it fails to exactly copy all of its details ?
Or rather some nuances/frequencies that make the Friedman sound what it is are not being captured by the profiling process ?
I know for sure from some blind tests that the Kemper can almost perfectly replicate a lot of amps, but I am still wondering why there isn't the definitive Friedman profile out there yet that everyone raves about.
I have MBritt's friedmans from his modern pack and the DS from andy's last pack. While they sound good for what they are they are imho still missing something, because when you hear a real recorded friedman there are these layers of (delicious) texture that are missing from the profiles I've tried. Best way I can put it I guess.
Haven't tried the ones in the free profile scene fwiw.
I think its a big difference if you hear a friedman live or on a compressed video, you cant compare it to a youtube sound. I never heard a friedman and i only can say that some friedman profiles are sound good from re and some are bad. I have chosen the 3 best ones for me and i am happy with it.

I agree..
@luntho

honest question: how do you evaluate the authenticity of a profile having the very amp that this profile was taken from?
TAF has a pack of friedman ss profiles..
Not even in the same ballpark... no chunk at all
