1. INPUT: Connect your instrument
here by means of a shielded signal
cable.
2. GAIN: Use this control to adjust
the input gain. With the control
towards the counter clockwise posi-
tion, the gain is low and very little
distortion is produced. As you
rotate the control clockwise the
gain increases, producing more
overdrive distortion and a higher
output volume level.
3. TONE: Use this control to “dial
in” the desired sound. Rotating the
control counter clockwise enhances
the midrange frequencies, while
rotating it clockwise enhances more
of the low and high frequencies
simultaneously, with a myriad of
tonal variations in between.
4. VOLUME: Use this control to
adjust the output level of the ampli-
fier. Use this control along with the
Gain control (#2) to obtain the level
you need. The Volume control also
governs the level of the signal at
the Line Out jack (#5).
5. LINE OUT: This jack provides a
line level signal for connecting to a
house mixing board, recording con-
sole or external amplifier. This jack
can also double as in Insert jack,
allowing you to add an external
effect, as shown on the facing
page. The jack is a stereo 1/4” type:
tip = signal out, ring = signal in,
sleeve = ground.
6. POWER LIGHT: This jeweled
lens illuminates when the amplifier
is turned on.
7. POWER SWITCH: Use this
heavy duty switch to turn the amp on
and off. (NOTE: Allow a few seconds
once the amp is turned on to let the
tubes warm up before playing.)

:
AC LINE CORD: The grounded
power cord should only be plugged
into a grounded power outlet that
meets all applicable electrical
codes and is compatible with the
voltage, power, and frequency
requirements stated on the rear
panel. Do not attempt to defeat
the safety ground connection.
