POWER SWITCH: Main power switch for the unit. Tube amplifiers take between 30 seconds and 2 minutes to
warm up and be ready to play after switching on, this is normal.
The tone control works in a similar fashion to the Tone control you probably have on your guitar except that
it uniquely works at the other end of the amplification chain. This has the ability to not only control the overall top end
response but also reduce upper end harmonics on the output stage and preamplifier overdrive sounds. This will give
you bright cutting sounds at high settings and smooth rounded sounds at lower settings. (Midway (5) is a good starting
point).
VOLUME
Sets how loud the amplifier is. Try cranking it up a little to drive the power tube harder for that real retro
sound and feel, that only a quality tube
amplifier can deliver. Now use your guitar
volume to control the amount of distortion.
BASS , MIDDLE, TREBLE: These are a
set of traditional passive tone controls that
have the advantage of always sounding
musical at any of their settings, mainly due
to their unique interactive nature. This gives
players a more natural set of tools to
create their ideal sound. (Try them all at 5
as a good starting point).
GAIN: Controls the amount of gain
applied to the preamplifier. High settings
will give preamplifier distortion and low
settings will give a clean sound. Use in
conjunction with the volume control to
obtain the balance of preamplifier and
power stage distortion you desire.
POWER INDICATOR: This lamp will be lit when the amplifier is switched on.
REVERB: Controls how much reverb is added to your sound.
