V18-112/V18-212 Tube Guitar Amplifier with Reverb
3
Introduction
Congratulations!
You are now the proud owner of a Crate V18-112 or V18-212 tube guitar
amplifier. This combo amplifier packs a whole lot of vintage tube sound and classic spring
reverb into its compact cabinet, providing you with an amp that is portable and easy to oper-
ate, yet still produces incredible sounds!
The V-Series amps offer the versatility required for many different musical styles, and have the
unique tonal purity of a hot-rodded tube amp. The V18-112 and V18-212 are single-channel
amplifiers with gain and master volume controls, treble/mid/bass tone controls, and an inter-
nal spring reverb. They crank out 18 watts from a pair of EL84 tubes into either one (V18-112)
or two (V18-212) internal speakers.
Like all Crate products, your V18 amplifier is designed by musicians and built using only the
best components. Each amplifier is tested to confirm that it meets our specifications, and we
believe that this amplifier is the absolute best that it can be.
In order to get the most out of your new amplifier, please read this manual before you begin
playing.
And
thank you
for choosing Crate.
