For People Who Hate Manuals—Quick Start Setting
We highly recommend you at least scan through the manual first to learn how the Flexi
works. If you are itching to get started now and will read it later, here’s a basic amp
setting that will get you up and running. Keep in mind the following conventions:
• There are no numbers on the dials, so knob positions are expressed in “clock face”
notation.
• “Full” means that the knob is turned clockwise to its limit. (Sometimes referred to as
“dimed” since it represents a value of “10” on numbered dials).
Hot Rod Flexi
Input: Hi Bright: ON Master: OFF
Volume: 1:00 O’clock Boost: ON Master Vol: N/A
Treble: Full Gain: Full Cut: Full
Middle: Full Tone: Full Power Mode: 50W
Bass: 10:00 O’clock
Notes: Use your guitar’s volume knob to control amp breakup. For example, to clean up
the sound, roll back your guitar’s volume knob. To get a thick, hot-rodded British
distortion sound, turn your guitar’s volume knob completely up.
