1) INPUT 

Connect your guitar to this input using a standard ¼” shielded instrument cable.

2) 0/-6dB SWITCH 

This switch pads the input (1) from 0 dB to -6 dB to compensate for higher-output sources, such as guitars with high-

output pickups or active electronics.

3) GAIN

 This knob sets the gain level (on each channel), and is the preamp’s most powerful control. It not only determines the amount of 

drive or saturation (for getting clean, crunch or overdriven sounds, or anywhere in between), but also plays an important role in tone shaping.

 

4)  HI GAIN 

The new version of the Triple 6 features “hi-gain” switches (4) on channels 2 and 3 that allow you to toggle the amp between Bad 

Boy 120 and Triple 6 gain levels.

5) MASTER 

This control is the master feed from the end of the preamp channel to the tube power stage. Each channel features its own 

MASTER control, allowing you to perfectly balance the relative volumes of the three channels, which can have very different sound styles and 

gain/drive levels. On each, the master control allows you to obtain a wide range of sounds/colours in relation to the gain setting—for example, 

very low-gain sounds at high volumes, or high-gain sounds at low volumes.

6) PRESENCE 

The PRESENCE knob featured on each channel controls high frequencies, above those controlled by the High knob. It’s an 

effective and useful part of the channel’s tone controls. Turning up the Presence knob gets you a crisp and sparkling clean sound in channel 1, 

or crunchy rhythm sounds for aggressive riffs in channel 2. On channel 3, turning down the presence control gets you a darker, more rounded 

tone for single-note lead playing.

7) BASS 

This knob controls the amount of low frequencies in your sound. The EQ curves of the bass controls are different on each channel. 

When you’re starting to explore sounds on the amp, avoid boosting the lows too much as this can reduce your attack and muddy your sound. 

And as the gain is turned up, it’s a good idea to lower the bass control somewhat for a more balanced sound (starting with the bass setting at 

around 12 o’clock).

8) MIDDLE 

The Middle control regulates the midrange frequencies and is an important part of your tone shaping. The frequency range it 

boosts or cuts has a big effect on the character of your sound. For a more scoopy tone, lower the mids. Turn the knob up for more focused 

attack and better pitch definition.

9)

 

HIGH

 The High knob controls the amount of high frequencies in your sound. It can produce unwanted noise (hiss) or pickup feedback when 

really cranked, so it’s best to avoid extreme settings, especially on channels 2 and 3, due to their higher gain. On Channel 3 you may find that
