2. How to use it: 

 
Read this owner manual completely before use to fully understand your Goldfinger’s functions. This 
manual is written for the 45 Karat Goldfinger. If you have the 90 Karat version keep on reading as almost 
all the functions are the same and then refer to 

i) 

for additional information. 

 
a) Power, Standby and Half Power 

 

1), 2), 48), 49) 

 

To operate your Goldfinger connect the power cable. If you have a head version you need to connect a 
speaker cabinet, refer to 

j)

. Flip the big toggle switch located all the way on the left of the front panel from 

off to on. Give it a minute or two for the tubes to reach operating temperature.  
Your Goldfinger has a Hi (howdy) high as well as a Low power mode, flip the toggle next to the power 
switch from Stand By to either position. Hi gives you the full power available while Low gives you 
approximately 1/3 less. Remember it is not always necessarily about volume, it is a different feel as well. 
In Hi the amp has more punch with a tighter feel and the most available clean headroom. Low gives the 
amp a sagging, loose feel, much like a tube rectifier. 
 
On the back panel is a Half Power switch to disengage two of the power tubes.
