1.)
CD/Tape Input - This 1/4" 3-conductor jack will allow you to plug in a CD player, tape or any other
source to practice along with. It sums the left and right signals into a mono signal and passes it through
to the amplifier section. To control the volume of the source, adjust the output volume of the device. We
suggest you turn the volume all the way down then plug in and adjust the volume according to your
taste.
2.)
Guitar Input - This is a 1/4" 2-conductor input jack for plugging in your instrument. It is intended for
guitars but will accept other instruments as well.
3.)
Lead Gain - Adjust this clockwise to increase the amount of distortion you add to the signal. Used in the
lower ranges of the control you will get a less distorted sound.
4.)
Channel Select Switch - This switch selects which preamp you are using. It will switch between the
Clean and Lead channels.
5.)
Lead Volume - This control is the output volume control for the Lead Channel. It follows the same tone
circuit as the other channel. Its gain structure is determined by the Lead Gain control but this serves as
the overall master volume for this channel.
6.)
Clean Level - This is the volume control for the Clean channel. Its gain structure is preset for maximum
signal before distortion and determines the output level of the amp.
7.)
Low - This is the bass control. It is passive and set to shelve frequencies at 100 Hz. This will affect the
low frequency signals. Turning it fully clockwise, the signal is left alone. Turning it counterclockwise, the
lows will be rolled off.
8.)
Mid - This is the midrange control. It is passive and set to shelve frequencies at 700 Hz. This will affect
the middle frequency signals. Turning it counterclockwise, your signal will "hollow out" the mid frequency.
,
9.)
High - This is the high control. It is passive and set to shelve frequencies at 4KHz. This will effect the
high frequency signals. Turning it fully clockwise, the signal is left alone. Turning it counterclockwise, the
highs will be rolled off.
10.) Effects Active - This switch is used to turn the Effects on and off.
11.) Effects Level - This control adds the selected effect and adjusts its apparent volume.
12.) Effects Selection Switch - This switch is used to select the desired effect. There are 16 different
effects to choose from.
13.) Jewel Light - This jewel light lets you know that the amplifier is on.
14.) Power - This switch turns on and off the AC power to the amp.
