The Front Panel:

1: INPUT: Use this 1/4” jack to connect your guitar to the amplifier by means of
a shielded instrument cable.

OVERDRIVE CHANNEL: 

A high gain channel giving you sounds from a slight

edge to serious overdrive.

2: GAIN: Use this control to adjust the amount of distortion for the Overdrive
channel. With the control counter clockwise, the sound will have a thick com-
pressed quality. As you rotate the control clockwise the amount of distortion
increases. 

3: LEVEL: Use this control to adjust the output level of the Overdrive channel.

4: CHANNEL SWITCH:  Use this switch to select either channel. With the switch
in the out position, the Clean channel is selected. When the switch is depressed,
the Overdrive channel is selected.

CLEAN CHANNEL: 

A normal gain channel designed to give you crystal clear

sounds to medium distortion.

5: LEVEL: This control sets the output volume level from the Clean channel: in
the full counterclockwise position there will be no output; as you rotate the con-
trol clockwise the output level increases. The full clockwise setting is maximum
output - as you increase the level, roll back the Low control (#6).

EQUALIZATION:

6: LOW: Use this control to adjust the low frequency level of the amplifier. Due to
the massive amount of low end available, you may want to “roll off” the bass at
high volumes.

7: MID: Use this control to adjust the midrange frequency level of the amplifier.

8: HIGH: Use this control to adjust the high frequency level of the amplifier.
