Troubleshooting
1. The amp isn’t powering up when the POWER switch is ON.
➢ Is the power cable plugged into the AC power connector on the rear panel of the
amp?
➢ Is the power cable plugged into an AC outlet?
➢ Is the AC outlet switched on and actually working?
➢ Does the power cable work?
2. There’s no sound coming from the amp
➢ Is your guitar turned up?
➢ Are both ends of your guitar cable plugged into where they should be?
➢ Is your guitar cable working?
➢ Is the top panel MASTER volume turned up?
➢ Do you have headphones or anything else plugged into the amp’s rear panel
LINE/PHONE jack? If “yes,” unplug!
➢ Check the settings of the GAIN, VOLUME, TREBLE, MIDDLE and BASS. On cer-
tain styles, if the TREBLE, MIDDLE, and BASS controls are all turned down, there
will be little or no sound coming from the amp due to the way the circuit of the orig-
inal works.
➢ If you’re in Manual mode (the MANUAL LED lit), turn the following controls above
their minimum setting: GAIN, VOLUME, TREBLE, MIDDLE, and BASS.
3. The amp doesn’t seem very loud
➢ Is your guitar turned up?
➢ Is the amp’s MASTER volume turned down low?
➢ Check the settings of the GAIN, VOLUME, TREBLE, MIDDLE, and BASS con-
trols. On certain styles, if the TREBLE, MIDDLE, and BASS controls are all turned
down, there will be little or no sound coming from the amp due to the way the cir-
cuit of the original works.
➢ If you’re in Manual mode (the MANUAL LED lit), turn the following controls above
their minimum setting: GAIN, VOLUME, TREBLE, MIDDLE, and BASS.
