Country, and World Music styles, too!

• All-new preamp design—tailored specifically for
clean, versatile tone shaping
• Professional XLR line output with Level control,
Ground Lift, and Pre-Post EQ switch
• Effects loop and Tuner Output with Mute

you play hard

the clean, precision performance that many specialist
players demand.
Speaker construction details:
• • Cast frame—for strength

A. INPUT - Plug your guitar in here.
B. INPUT PAD - Reduces input sensitivity to allow
cleaner response with high-output guitars:
NORMAL—Full input sensitivity
–10dB PAD—Lower input sensitivity
C. GAIN - Adjusts the preamp signal level. Use
together with MASTER {J} to set the overall
amplifier loudness.
• PRE AMP CLIP - Indicates preamp clipping.
Reduce GAIN if you hear distortion when this
LED is on.
NOTE: Your Steel King amplifier is designed to sound
great with the tone controls {D–G} in the center or
“12 o’clock” position
D. EQ TILT - Can be used as a simple tone control or
to compensate for poor room acoustics:
HI provides treble emphasis—useful in “dull”
sounding environments (carpet/drapes)
LO provides bass emphasis—useful in “sharp”
sounding environments (cement/tile)
E. TREBLE - Adjusts high–frequency tone character.
F. MID LEVEL / MID FREQUENCY -
The MID LEVEL knob adjusts the tone
character at the frequency set by the MID
FREQ knob. NOTE: The EQ has no effect
when the MID LEVEL knob is set to “0.”
G. BASS - Adjusts low–frequency tone character.
H. REVERB - Adjusts the Reverb level.
I. MUTE - Disables all amplifier outputs except for
TUNER OUT. The adjacent LED flashes when
MUTE is active.
MUTE OFF MUTE ON
J. MASTER VOLUME - Adjusts the power amp signal
level. Use together with GAIN {C} to set the overall
amplifier loudness.
K. LIMITER - Prevents signal spikes from clipping the
power amp.
LIMITER OFF LIMITER ON
• PWR AMP CLIP - Indicates power amp clipping.
Occasional flashing is normal when you are
playing hard. Activate the LIMITER or reduce
MASTER {J} if you hear distortion when this LED
is on.
L. RED JEWEL - Illuminates when the amplifier is
powered on.
